We came into this month excited to impact the communities of Xenacoj, Santa Maria, and Ayapan for the Kingdom of God. I do not think any of us realized how deeply we would be impacted by the people of these communities while we were trying to impact them. We came to love widows and orphans, and in the process God grew and softened our hearts for the widows and the fatherless. He then gave us the opportunity to introduce the fatherless to their heavenly Father, the one that will never leave and forsake them. He used us to show the lonely and broken that they are not forgotten, and remind us that we are also not forgotten. He grew our hearts to love these communities deeply, and I believe we are leaving chunks of our hearts here in Guatemala. This month we learned to love deeply, give generously, and be foolishly compassionate. Thank you for investing in this book and this ministry. "Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world." James 1:27
