We just got internet back after 24 hours after serving our punishment for exceeding our limit again.
It is the first storm of the season, as you can see from the name, and it has already caused a lot of destruction.
A mudslide passed about a block from us in its habitual path through town. I do not think anyone was injured in the storm in our town. The road was impassable until this morning and there is still no way to get into Guatemala City as of my writing this. There is hardly any produce in town, but we do have enough food for about a week. Mom was supposed to fly today but had to change her ticket due to the Volcano problem in Guatemala City. I have to mention - I saw the dire danger on that volcano at least 5 years ago, and tried to warn people... Mom would not have been able to get there anyway since all three routes (maybe there are more) are completely impassable due to the mudslides.
We were out of water for a while when a tree fell on one pipes leading from one of our artesian springs on the mountain. Other than that, we are all doing well.
There is a Psalm the kids memorized that talks about destruction all around, but we will not fear because God is with us.
