Greetings in the wonderful name of Jesus Christ!
We just finished our week of Vacation Bible School in
Tepeyac, San Carlos and Nava and everything went so smoothly. Our friend and
pastor of First Baptist Church in Haskell, Jim Mc Curley was here, and so were Pastor
Greg and Robin Goza and their son, Jake from Anson. They pastor the Community
Church in Aspermont that we used to attend when we lived in Texas.
Dr. Wayne and Yuvi Cadenhead have been heading up this VBS
outreach for over 30 years and have it down to a science. It was on the trip to
Tepeyac in 2008 that opened my eyes to the needs here in Coahuila. God has a
way of touching your heart when you come to Mexico to make a difference for the
kingdom.

Many more friends, old and new, participated in the group.
It was such a blessing to spend time with them and to hear what God has been
doing in their lives over the past year.
We have been working hard to scrape old paint off and repaint the church in Tepeyac. It was a group effort and we are so happy with the results.
Monday afternoon, Susan Carver came down to join us from
Knox City. We met her in Del Rio and caravanned down to our house. She will be
leaving today and we are sad to see her go. It has been great having her here
for a visit.
I am posting some photos of things that we’ve been doing the
past few weeks. Susan purchased a new outhouse for the church in Tepeyac and we
picked it up in Piedras Negras.
Many of the local farmers are growing corn. This picture is
of Bill and our friend, Yessica’s baby Jaziel. He will turn one next month.
This picture is of the group (and a few of our friends from
Tepeyac and Palmira) at the church in Nava on the last day of the VBS. It’s a
great picture of the group and we’re so glad we were able to participate again
this year.
