14-15 September 17

Tomorrow, 15 September, is Guatemala's Independence Day. I have two personal connections to Guatemala: (1) I have two neckties handmade by "Lily" in Guatemala, purchased through Fair Trade, and (2) our son Ben spent 2-3 weeks in 2008 in the city of Antigua, video-documenting the work of short-term youth teams under the direction of Mission Discovery.
