Dear list members:

I am taking the liberty of using this

list to ask your assistance on a personal situation.

I am trying to get a small parcel (about 12 lbs weight)

to Ruben Mateo Sebastian, a Kanjobal Maya from

Guatemala, who used to live here in Minnesota.

Myself and other of his friends have been

sending money to help support his family. Ruben

requested a Bible in Spanish and some books

to help him perfect his English. The private company

that we use to send money orders charges $130 to deliver

the package (amount that we rather give to Ruben!) We have been told

that the regular postal system in Guatemala is not reliable enough to

deliver these books.

If somebody is traveling to Huehuetenango

(Ruben lives in La Democracia, Mesilla-Frontera), and doesn't

mind delivering the Bible and other books, please contact me

(see below).

iMuchisimas gracias!
