Within 24 hours, I’ll be back in Guatemala for a time. Right now, I’m still trying to determine what’s become of my little digital camera. I haven’t seen it for a couple of months, but I didn’t worry about it. I just figured it would turn up. Now, I’m beginning to think maybe it won’t.
The search hasn’t been entirely futile. I discovered my favorite ratty old wool sweater, which I thought my mother had tossed in the trash. Hallelujah!
Viña Studios has invited me down to help out with its first international conference. They’ll have nearly 70 people there for 10 days. I’ll be helping by doing video interviews of the conference attendees. I’m hoping to work with some of the guys at Viña, and sharing the project together. It should be challenging but fun.
It will be great to be back there. I've been reading good reports of how the Kaqchikel believers are receiving and responding to Viña's finger-puppet Bible story videos. (Click here for prayer blog and reports.)
A family friend, Darren, is joining me — a last-minute but very welcome addition to the trip. We fly out tonight at a quarter to midnight. Not a moment too soon, as far as I’m concerned. My hayfever has reached its fever pitch — a 98-mph fastball hitting me square on the nose — these past couple days. On Sunday we could see clouds of pollen drifting over the grass fields here in the Willamette Valley. This always happens around June, resulting in some of the highest pollen counts in the nation. Ah, it's raining now. There's grace in that rain.
Now, where's that camera?

I hope you found your camera before going to Mayalandia. Espero que haya encontrado su camara digital antes de su partida. Creo que desearia estar con usted en Guatemala en vez de estar sufriendo de mi alergia. Mi cuerpo esta sobrereaccionando demasiado contra el polen y los efectos son insoportables. Lo que me consuela es pensar que usted no sufrira de la alergia como yo en Guatemala.
Gracias a Dios que su gracia a los alergicos esta en la lluvia que nos esta enviando este semana.
Cuidese estaremos orando por mucho fruto en Solola.

Hermano Josué,
Fíjese que no pude encontrar mi camera, pero gracias a Dios me compró otra senciilla una persona muy generosa (mi mamá). ;) ... Lo siento de lo acerca de las alergias. Sí, son muy fuertes allá en este entonces. Que bendición cuando caiga la lluvia, no?
Saludos,
Juan
