"Do not forget to show hospitality to strangers, for by so doing some people have shown hospitality to angels without knowing it."
Hebrews 13:2 NIV
Since we moved to Mexico, we have often picked people up on the side of the road while travelling, and even met people in restaurants or grocery stores that needed a lift somewhere. But last month, we had a couple come up to us in a WalMart parking lot in Del Rio.
Steve and Kelly came up to the van while I was waiting for Bill to make a few last-minute purchases. They told us they were interested in heading to Peru, seeking God's will for their futures. We invited them to come stay in Tepeyac and they took us up on our offer. We are renting a little casa that belongs to our friend, Juana, and it was perfect for them to stay there. They had a bit of a culture shock the first few days, but then adjusted to mostly everything, except the heat. In a place where the temperatures are well over 100 in July, August and September, they were wilting in the summer heat.
We did get to take them to Centinela to meet Alejandro, Veronica and the "muchachos." They loved that ministry and enjoyed their visit there. They even got to go to church one Sunday at Agua Viva.
We pray the Lord continues to lead their feet where they can be a blessing and a light in the darkness. They love Jesus and live to serve Him. We are so grateful He brought them into our lives, even for only a short visit. No doubt, they were angels He put in our paths.
