Guatemala Family Retreat April 2012

      It's been an amazing weekend at the Joni and Friends Guatemala Family Retreat. We have 15 families enjoying their time at the beautiful El Faro resort center. The kids have participated in singing, watched clowns, played games, did crafts, swam and had a talent show. The parents were able to spend time talking and even had date night away from the kids tonight. The weekend centered around how special each family member is to God as they learned how they are His workmanship.



    See the empty chairs on the dock?  All of the kids are in the water having fun.  I joined them after I took this picture.


        Look how hard Darwin is working on his craft project.  He is one detirmined little boy!


     I was able to work with 4 Guatemalian physical therapy students.  We met with each family individually to give therapy suggestions or encouragement.  In this picture, we are meeting with Katerin's family.  She is such a sweet girl with the biggest smile.

              Such a great weekend!  I know that each family was touched in a special way.
