If not, let me bring you “into the loop”. I traveled to Guatemala City to work on a dual documentary project for Hearts for the Children Ministry there last month. While I was there I was shooting my new mamiya (camera) and suddenly the shutter went out, thus rendering my camera useless. I was able to shoot with other cameras for the rest of the trip, and my camera was unexpectedly replaced free of charge when I got home! BUT…I got the film back only to discover that the roll before and the one when the shutter went out are both pretty much lost. This doesn’t mean that the project is lost…we shot a lot while we were there and I have plenty of stuff to make some beautiful presentations for Hearts for the Children. What this does mean is that I get to share with you some images that I would normally hold until the project is done because they will not be used. God seems to turn these frustrating things around into something beautiful. So…without further ado, I give you a few images from our day at the garbage dump:

While Stephen is in Guatemala (see previous post), we have the ridiculously talented Bob Miller in Bolivia with a team from Christian Life Church. Bob is there to document “the best kept secret in the world,” says CLC’s Pastor Rick Long. We can’t wait to hear and see more!

p.s. Stephen is coming back from Guatemala tonight, so check back later this week for pics from the trip!

He will be helping to tell the story of Lupita, an ex-prostitute of 20 years who was saved from that life by The Mary Magdelene Ministry (part of Hearts for the Children). She is now married, has kids and helps run the place. We really look forward to hearing and seeing this amazing woman!

Stephen has also been touring a bit…here is a shot of him in Guatemala City:

*And an update on the earthquake and tsunami watch – the watch was lifted, thank goodness, but please continue to pray for the families who lost loved ones on the northern coast of Honduras. Stephen and Paul were just there last month doing some photo and video work for Missions Unlimited.
