Greetings from Houston! I arrived by plane on Thursday
night, after spending two months in Oregon and Sacramento.
My father passed away the end of February and the same week, my mother fractured her back, so I have been caring for her and her husband. It has been a time of reconnecting with my mother and my family. God has a way of bringing us together through circumstances we never imagined.

I have been in Brookings, Oregon, for the most part, but
also in Mount Shasta where I grew up. Both locations are beautiful, and it’s
been a joy to spend time walking along the beach and enjoying the beauty of the
snow on the mountain.
I miss Mexico so much, and was grateful when my brother
purchased tickets for me to go home for a few days. My friends, Susan and Bobby
picked me up and drove me to the house. We had a wonderful visit with friends
Rito and Maria, and José and Guadalupe and not enough time with
Yessica and Alejandro. It was such a quick trip, but we were able to see Bill
on Friday and again on Sunday and Wednesday before I flew out on Thursday afternoon.
I flew back to California yesterday, and have
lots to take care of there with my mother and step-father. I am hoping to be
back in Mexico the month of July to work with First Baptist Church of Haskell
doing the VBS classes in Tepeyac, San Carlos and Centinela.
I covet your prayers and I seek God’s
will for my future, and also for my mother’s health as I care for her needs.
Thank you so much for your interest in
this blog and the ministry. You are an integral part of what happens in Mexico
and beyond the border.
In His loving embrace,
Toni
