Last day of 2012 in Lemoa

This morning, we all headed to the clinic to clean out the storage room.  This room can collect things during the year and it always helps to take inventory of it before the new year begins.

 

Then it was time to enjoy lunch.  There were about 47 of us, with some of the promoters bringing their immediate family.  We grilled burgers and hot dogs.  Manuel's wife, Juana, prepared a macaroni salad.  Ruben went to Santa Cruz and returned with two cakes, which were a big hit.

 

 Enjoying lunch on the porch......Sandra and Francisca.

 Kemmel with Tomas and his family.

 Josue, Lisa, Aura and Juana.

The two cakes came in boxes that had puzzles on them.  The children wanted the boxes, so Ruben started quizing the boys on how many Bible verses they knew.  It became quite a competition!  Tomas' son and Manuel's son were in it to the finish.  You could watch the fathers on the side-lines wanting to help their sons and also perspiring a little for them! 

About 3:30, I left for Antigua.  I arrived about 7:00 and they were waiting for me at the hotel.  Tomorrow, will be a day to chill and then I will fly to NC on Thursday morning.  I will spend the time with my family, South Fork Church of Christ and the Morganton Church of Christ.  It will be a relaxing time.........................and then back to Guatemala in January!
