Unitedville

(Comment from the editor: We hope you enjoy the following feature piece about our team's journey in Belize. The facts are completely true, the prose may be written with a small amount of pomp. Reader discretion advised.)

Salutations to our companions and counterparts who still reside within the continental United States of America. We have had an ever-so marvelous stretch of wanderlust journeys through the breath-taking, indigenous rain forests of Belize. On this fine rain-engulfed evening in the united and humble town of Unitedville, we have been overwhelmed with the undying and benevolent love that surrounds us in this very moment as we compose this piece of literature. Yet somehow, we are struck by the stark and unsettling contrast between our privileged and indulgent existence, and the rustic and subservient lifestyle displayed here by our Belizean brethren. In His Will Ministries has obliged us with such unconditional hospitality, that at times gravity seems to be working a thousand-fold on our eyes, as they well up with heavy tears of gratitude.

As we concluded our noonday refection, we were ferried to a wonderful Belizean center of youth pedagogy in the heart of the united and humble town of Unitedville. Once present in this ganglion of childhood education, we were fulfilled by the inextinguishable enthusiasm in their twinkling eyes. We upheld our covenant to bring praise to our heavenly father by singing with timbrel and dance. We then felt the shaking and startling urge to help these united Belizean cherubs on their journey to further develop their knowledge of Christ and the world that surrounds them. We engaged them in arithmetic sequences, along with practices of artistry and avant-garde dissertation from the literature greats, including the illustrious Dr. Seuss and Shel Silverstein. We then regressed to our humble abode for a wee bit of gratifying, fine leisure time in the united and humble town of Unitedville. As we peered through our contemplative optical holes that common folk know and appreciate as eyes, we were astounded with the blessed lessons we come to be acquainted with, in the united and humble town of Unitedville.


We now approach upon the wondrous moment of the setting of the skin-altering Belizean sun over the valley in the united and humble town of Unitedville. As we come to the close of this 24-hour midsummer night’s dream, we hold each of you in the tenderness of our deepest prayers. We thank you for your continuing support that is still felt over the course of 1465 miles. Our love is sent from the unclaimed hollows of our hearts to Bibie, Robin, Ross, and Kenyon, as well as Lamar, Allen, and Virginia. Love also pours from our inner beings for Ross, Casie, Julia, and Jack.

With Kind Regards,
Stewart, Charlie, and Diane (in the united and humble town of Unitedville)
