Praise God for our safe travel to Mexico. Yesterday was a long day for everyone with our early start and the distance we traveled. We arrived at the mission around 6 p.m. local time after meeting up with the Nebraska group and completing some power grocery shopping. It's wonderful how this group of God's servants mesh together so well. It's as if we've always been a cohesive group.
Dinner at the taco stand was absolutely incredible. We we definitely submersed in the local culture and everyone enjoyed a delicious meal and fantastic fellowship!
We had a great devotion last night talking about what brings us here. Many different reasons, but it all truly comes down to the willingness to serve. Everyone is so excited to help others and to change lives as we grow in Christ. We will share many stories in our blog this week as well as when we return.
Today we will spend the morning preparing materials for the worksites. We are cutting wood and painting so we are ready to begin construction first thing on Monday morning. This afternoon we will spend some time shopping in downtown and then return to the Mision for dinner and devotions.
Please continue to pray for us. Pray that we impact others as we share the love of Christ.
