As you may remember in my last news letter I mentioned that my family and I would be traveling to the States. We need to see my mother and sister in Indiana and speak to churches and schools about coming to Guatemala to help us with the medical clinics in the jungle. But we also are going to attend my son Lance's wedding. He is still stationed in Miami FL in the U S Coast Guard and his wife was also in the Coast Guard. So we are looking forward...

Well now that the Holiday season is over I am receiving more and more people responding to my last News Letter. To be honest we were wondering if we were meant to keep on doing the work here in Guatemala or was it time to throw in the towel. Thanks to so many of you who sent us donations and letters telling us how you were praying for us and that we needed to keep helping the people who do not have anyone els...

I do not want to sound negative in any way but I feel it is my obligation to keep those of you informed who have followed my work and supported us for years, to be aware of our situation. This year we had eight teams scheduled to come and help us do medical clinics in the remote vill...

For the past year I have been working with a friend from a church in Alabama named William Dunnam. He has brought down four teams and already did the first Pastors Conference we had. The teams have been fantastic and a real honor to work with. So he contacted me several moths ago and said I would like to do another Pastor Teaching Conference for the local Pastors and bring my Past...

They worked extremely hard and even after working all day with patients they came back to the dorm and then began cleaning and reorganizing our pharmacy.  ( I personally thought it was fine, but they being American nurses just did not approve of dirt and spiders and scorpions )  T...

Let me explain..... Last Friday as my friend Donald and I were returning from working all day and I drove up to my driveway to find about 30 school students along with about 12 ladies all in my driveway. I thought "Oh no there must be something wrong" and they need help with  something. I of cours...

I know it was a big sacrifice for some of you to send us money you need to live on ( Except my good friend Bill Gates) but for the rest of you we just really want to say THANK YOU!!!! ( OK, I maybe not good friends with Bill but I use his Windows so I guess we are just friends) Whew! We just finished up with three teams back to back and...

One from Boston Mass and one from Alabama. Two entirely different countries, trust me on this. Both teams were great and I cannot thank them enough but they are here for one week at a time and them return to the land of blessings. But for one week I will take them into my world. We will do a clinic up on top of a mountain in a village. They will see the cement bridge I built with a team and the villagers 5 years ago and ...

We just finished having a team from Mississippi who really had to deal with some challenges their first day. Five of the team members were teenagers. Now that is not the challenge. They were great. But four of the five of them were from one family. I hope they don't mind me telling some of their story because they are wonderful humble people. But the sacrifice they made to come here and do a mission trip was unbelievable. The father mot...

I just wanted to share with you a day I had that was probably one of the most stressful days in recent years. I had always lived and worked in a different world than most people by living in different countries but sometimes the cultures are so different than I was raised in that it is still hard to cope with. When I was a Firefighter / Paramedic back in the States some people would say "man Bryan that mu...

Whew 21 straight days of non-stop teams. I just dropped off my second team of student nurses yesterday at the airport in Honduras. The problem was the air conditioning had gone out of my shuttle bus when I picked them up and I got it fixed because we all roasted driving back to Guatemala. So when we got about 5 miles out of our place the AC went out again and we had to drive to Honduras with out air and we roasted again. We got up at 5:30am in th...

I am writing this to you in a hotel room in San Pedro Sula Honduras because I just dropped off the Nursing student team and have a team from the Boston area coming in tomorrow. You know I live a pretty different life than most normal people. Yesterday I was driving a 4x4 truck loaded with 15 people in the truck and 6 people in a trailer I pull behind my truck. We were so far into the jungle and mountains that my bus could not take t...

We have not had teams for a while now and donations where running at empty to the point where the fuel light on the dash was even saying " your running on empty" However I can tell you that God has really turned things around for us. Teams have started signing up and people have donated funds for us to keep going and we have two teams coming back to...

I would like to first thank those people who responded to our request for donations to help us keep the work going in Guatemala. We truly thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We know the economy is not good as we had all hoped for but Americans have been through tough times before and have weathered the storm and I pray it will happen again. So again I cannot thank you enough for your willingness to help us in these tough times. ...

I have been working in the mission field for years and God has always provided. I still believe in my heart I am supposed to continue the work the good Lord has given me to do here in Guatemala and you all know how much we accomplish. Those of you who have read my newsletters over the years, ... Wed, 30 Mar 2011 04:00:00 GMT
