What has your attention?

Since then, you have been raised with Christ, set your hearts on things above, were Christ is seated at the right hand of God. Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. Colossians 3:1-2

I just recently read, ‘obstacles are those frightful things we see when we take our eyes off the goal’, and is so true how we can either get distracted or discouraged when we set our attention on the wrong thing. Very rarely will an athlete hit the target if his eyes are not on it. We can rest in knowing that our Father has complete care of us and when we fix our heart and mind on Him that is the direction we will take, the best one. Our God is an awesome God!

Intersunago Guatemala 2008


Helloooooo!! Hoooolaaaaa!!! I hope you are doing very well, can you imagine how fast this year has been going? It’s so good to look back and see how much God has done in my life and I’m sure in your lives as well, we have such a good God!


Well let me tell you now about the Intersunago women’s Tour in Guatemala, this was organized by Vicki Wade from Ambassadors in Spain, so Spain came to me, it was really such a blessing!


Even from the very beginning I was certain that God was going to do amazing things through this tour! Vicki said she has never had so many bumps in the road for a tour, so we knew it was going to be powerful!


I have never been part of a Women’s tour, I was very excited to meet the girls, serve them and love them! When we began to meet each other it was so evident that God put this group together, so many different personalities, but we all learned to love each other and work together as a team.


The purpose of this tour is to shine God’s light, by our attitude while living together (sharing responsibilities, cooking, cleaning, etc.) traveling together, playing soccer games, doing soccer clinics, displaying good sportsmanship, sharing devotions, prayer and our testimonies; in order that we might all grow in God or even begin a relationship with Him.




It was such a blessing to meet so many amazing people, like our coach John moved to Guatemala like 4 months ago with his wife and 3 kids, to do soccer ministry with MIGLOFUT (Global Soccer Ministry), to have met him is such an answered prayer, we can help each other.



Another person is Trina, a great soccer player, she wasn’t part of the tour but we adopted her from the first day we met, she had expressed that she didn’t believe in God, but she came to enjoy the devotionals, she was open to prayer and loved worship and now she even wants to do soccer ministry, which is amazing. God placed us in her path at just the right time, and better yet she acknowledges that God is working in her heart, praise God!





So the tour was great, it really opened so many doors for ministry here, so now I’m really praying to follow God’s direction. After the tour was done, I was part of a medical and dental clinic with Crea (I’ve talked about this organization a few times, we are a group of friends, moved by God’s heart to make an impact in Guatemala and the world, helping and developing the growth of communities) but I will share more in another newsletter! LOVE YOUUUUUUU AND THANK YOU!!
