God’s Child Day II

Today we spent a lot of the morning working on trying to get video & pictures up for everyone.  I (Nicole) spent a lot of the day trying to learn how to work on a spanish keyboard.  Trust me it is not easy – none of the keys are what they appear to be.  It was also my birthday.

We toured the Dreamer Center which was beautiful (Sister K & I are dreaming up our own in Bismarck already.)  We also went to the Scheel Center & will be going back on Thursday to broadcast live there along with some of the students who have been practicing to be on our station.

Here are some pictures from Day II.

We arrived in Guatemala at 9:00 pm (which is 10:00 Bismarck time – we are only 1 hour behind).  Right off the bat we sat around the table & interviewed Sister Kathleen Atkinson with ITEMP & Charisse Fandrich with the God’s Child Project at the dinner table of our host family Victor & Dora. 

Sister Kathleen has been here for four months, and Charisse for one week.  Our interviews will be posted below soon.

Well, we’ve made it, and things are going great.  A couple of technical difficulties, but hey – those happen in America too.  We’ve had some great interviews at the Dreamers Center & the Mayan ruins.  We are trying our hardest to get pictures & video up when possible. 

Our #1 piece of advice today was “if someone tries to rob you – give them what they want.  If they want you to go with them start yelling & screaming like Richard Simmons on speed.”
