Mexico was...

Amazing. and I miss it so much. I just love the kids and the people there! Their sweetness...and unselfishness..to see to it that you're the most comfortable that you can be..where is that in America? I mean, yes, in some very expensive hotels, but these people give it freely..you can tell that they love their homeland, but are also eager to try new places. This girl at Roca Enterna (the church that we support) Alejandra, is so sweet! They just come up to you, whether you've been there a long time or are new, and kiss you one the cheeck (and the cute guys do it too! hahahaha) Their willingness to learn English is amazing. They have so little, yet have so much.

oh did I mention that I went to Mexico? Yeah, Nov. 29th through Dec. 7. It was amazing. I think I already said that. haha. I really do miss it. It was a missions trip with our church. Emiliano, Julio, Fernando, Roberto, Fatiyma, little Julio, Estafania, and then the missionaries grandchildren---Kasey, Molly, and Ryan. all fluent in Spanish and in English. Oh, how I miss them! and walking to LeeAnne's every day..and going to La Bufa...ok I'm just gonna stop, cause it's making me miss them more.

Read 1 Peter 2:9. Powerful verse. Powerful word. Powerful God.

Just read the whole chapter!

God bless!
