Mexico

My trip to Mexico was amazing, once again. Altadena went with the Denver people. It was reminiscent of last year and surpassed my expectations. We worked on building the church. Lots of manual/physical labor. I am so sore from lifting buckets of cement, mortar, block and climbing up and down scaffolding. but that is what I love about it. I mean, when else would I ever be able to build a septic tank, i mean, really. God was definitely present, and I learned a lot about thankfulness in all things.
Here's some pictures.

Jim and I at the work site with some gnarly mud.




Michelle, Karla, Fede, Peter, Joey, Ben and Yaneli
on Sunday morning.


Karla and I. She is such a sweet girl with
a heart for the Lord. We grew a lot closer
to eachother this trip.



Fede and I. This boy is amazing. The sweetest
thing. he was really patient with me as I fumbled
with communicating in Spanish. ahhh, chiquita. :]

All in all, this trip only served to remind me how much I love the kids, work and ministry down there. Thank you all for your prayers. There were no major accidents and my worst mishap was falling down into the six foot septic tank hole. No biggy at all.

P.S. Just for clarification, I do know that "chiquita" does mean little girl. But it was a "sobre nombre" for Fede the whole week. and if it makes you feel any better, he did call me "chiquito" as well. ahhh the good times.
