It is possible...

In March of 2006, I was priviledged to attend a series of meetings that included Dr. Carl Kuttler, the US Ambassador to Guatemala, and several other officials involved with law enorcement from the country of Guatemala.

It was in these meeting that Carl Kuttler, the President of St. Petersburg College, indicated his interest in providing PC's to the National Civilian Police to assist with their up and coming network between stations nation wide. It was the revelation of the completion of the computer lab in Pastores that escalated these conversations. There was proof that computers from St. Petersburg College are real.

This week we see the conclusion to this project with a very official meeting. During a highly visible press conference, Carl Kuttler officially gave 1,000 computers and additional networking material to the National Civilian Police. President Berger of Guatemala, officially received them.

Those present were Bill Losasso, his daughter Sarah, The Mayor of Pastores - Miguel Lopez, The US Ambassador to GUA - James Derham, 25 Station Chiefs from all 25 departments in GUA, The Director General of the National Civilian Police, His Boss - The Minister of Justice and myself.

This was yet another amazing day that God was generous enough to include me in.
