(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)
