The International Assembly of Latin Link, which happens every 4 years, was held here in Guatemala a couple of weeks ago.
That meant that the team here and myself were very busy with preparations and logistics for about a month beforehand, but it all turned out well and was a fantastic event.
Every 4 years, representatives of all the Latin Link teams get together to make decisions together and learn from one another. This time, we were 150 people, along with many friends of ours from Latin America Mission Canada. Here´s the obligatory group photo.
It was a great time together. We heard devotionals based on 2 Timothy, and worshipped in several different languagegs. The main sessions inspired and challenged us to look at different aspects of missions today - and tomorrow. We also had times for training, and friendship, and football! And to encourage the younger leaders amongst us.
Despite it being a lot (A LOT) of work, I really enjoyed it - for me the International Assemblies are always a great expression of our unity and diversity - of our passion for the gospel and desire to communicate it in relevant ways wherever we are. I love that we are a community with a calling!
