A Day in the Park

Today Saskia and I went to the park with four of the ladies from the casa hogar. We woke up this morning thinking that maybe we weren´t going to be able to go because it was almost drizzling and cold to be at the park for a few hours, but we both kept praying that God would keep the rain away and that it would clear up. In the middle of making alternate plans on the way, things cleared up! Praise the Lord!



I think the ladies enjoyed the outing at the park--certainly something different than their normal routine! I am so glad Saskia was with me so we could do something like this for them together!

Also here are some beautiful flowers and this tree with big bunches of yellow flowers hanging down for you to enjoy! (I don´t think I have ever seen anything quite like it before!)




Thank you for praying for me and being behind me! you are a blessing!

Things are really turning GREEN
Here is a picture of the fields that I took on my way to El Monte yesterday morning.


Today I made it official and decided to rent the little bungalow that I told you about.
I won´t be moving until about July 1st.
Please pray that as I begin to literally make my home in Mexico, this country would become
even more of a place of home to me.


This photo doesn´t look like much, but I will have better ones later..and a few stories too.
But right now I have no choice but to get back to work for some preparations
for tomorrow. Looking forward to seeing you soon....and thanks for praying!

Here are some pictures that Saskia, one of our current short-term workers took with me at the casa hogar this past Thursday with some of the women. Saskia is such a blessing! I am going to miss her a lot when she goes back to her home country in July. Ministry just works better when we work together.
Things are going pretty well. I have a really busy week ahead. Thank you for your continued prayers! Looking forward to seeing you soon! Blessings to you all!
