Greetings!
Our team was able to experience a lot of amazing experiences here in
Belize, we began our morning by having the privilege to attend Pastor
Eric's church (The Nazarene Church of Succotz). The experience was
very special as we were not only able to interact with the people and
children of the church, but also we were able to worship in such a
unique way in both English and Spanish. Although, we worshiped in two
languages we were reminded that we all serve one God, what a wonderful
reminder! We were so lovingly greeted by the people of the church and
welcomed! The sense of community is one of the most amazing parts of
the Belizean culture I have seen so , as everyone looks out for each
other and has a deep care and love for those around them.
We were able to see an amazing part of Belizean history as we were
able to see the Mayan Ruins, we not only were able to see them, but we
were also able to climb the ruins one step at a time. The experience
was quite scary for some and thrilling for others, but once everyone
got to the top we were able to enjoy the scenery of God's majestic
creation surrounding us!
Also we were able to go to the local vendors were we were able to look
at the beautiful handy work of the Belizean men and woman and purchase
some neat pieces to help us remember and share Belize with others at
home!
We really appreciate your prayers and are missing you!
Blessing!
Love,
Heather Sapatka
So good to hear what a wonderful time you are experiencing Heather. I can imagine all of you on top of the ruins! Good stuff. Excited to hear about your time when you return. I know you will continue to be a blessing to those you are called to serve!
