Mudslides & Landslides in Guatemala

As most of you know, I'll be leaving Saturday for Guatemala.  Recently, there've been stories in the news about landslides and mudslides all over Guatemala, some of them fatal.  Our ministry contacts on the ground in Guatemala have all confirmed that these landslides are widespread and that the ones in the news are only a fraction.  Many smaller land and mudslides have affected roads and bridges throughout central Guatemala.  Chichicastenango, our ministry site, is located about 87 miles northwest of Guatemala City.  In order to get there from the airport in Guatemala City, we'll be travelling by road through mountainous terrain.  Please pray with us that the roads to and from Chichi are clear and passable.  If not, we have developed some alternative modes of transportation.  Please pray also for the people of Guatemala that are dealing with the landslides and are grieving from lost loved ones.
