Opis

Did you ever want to write a book? Many people want to write a book; do it Many people want to go on short term mission trips; Do it Many people want to do many things. But few do it So, get out your bucket list and start knocking them off Writing a book is not easy. Writing a book in less than 26 days is outright difficult; coupled with feeding children, visiting hundreds of widows and orphans, laundry, blogging, living with many other people Dealing with culture shock, occasional "Montezuma's revenge," possible home sickness...and the list goes on and on But despite all this Atarah Doves team did it Chances are if you're reading this book you either know someone from Atarah Doves or GO Ministries, or you know someone who knows someone from Atarah Doves or GO Ministries, and while you may not be able to spend a month in Guatemala at this time, you'll be able to experience it through the words and photos of Atarah Doves. Your heart will break when you learn a 16 year old girl committed suicide. A few of your squadmates happened to be near her house right after it happened. They witnessed the police bring her body out and the cries of the broken hearted family members. You'll ride on the roof of a 15 passenger van driving up a long and bumpy dirt rode to scoop rice and beans for children who look like they were "dipped in an egg batter and rolled in dirt," you'll cry and sit at the foot of a bed and gaze into a widows eyes as she tells you the joys and pains of her life. You'll laugh teaching English and feel the warmth of little children running to fight to hold your hand. And that's why this book; to share their stories with you; their friends and family.
