Good news from Ben and Scarlett Tino!

From Global Lutheran Outreach missionaries Ben and Scarlett Tino (Serving in Zacapa, Guatemala)

What is the latest news on us in Zacapa??

To be brief, we are still serving in Zacapa, waiting for Scarlett’s US visa paperwork to be approved, and waiting on the newest Tino to arrive!

The month of March was full of rehearsals and Easter preparations. The top photo you can see Cristian-singing, David-guitar, and Ana-piano, during a Saturday night rehearsal.

April began with Holy week, a week of vacations for every Guatemalan but a busy time for us at the church. Scarlett was in-charge of putting together the first ever re-enactment of the Passion of Christ, done by the Sunday School kids at the church.

The month of May began with Mother’s Day celebrations. In Guatemala, Mother’s Day always falls on May 10th, not the 2nd Sunday of May.

The group in La Trementina has grown to about ten. May ended with helping two teams from the Lutheran organization, CALMS. . Scarlett and I both helped out with translating for them while they were down here. Top left pic is VBS in the church of El Maguey.

As you might have concluded, there is more than a turkey in the oven for this thanksgiving… Yes, Scarlett  and I are expecting our first child come November!
