Precious faces of kids in Mexico
















Close-up pictures of kids in Mexico





Another Saturday afternoon in Nuevo Progreso, Mexico






This afternoon we took 3 language school students with us and went to Mexico for ministry. It was a nice afternoon and the town was crowded. It took us 1 1/4 hours to come back across the bridge. It usually takes 20 to 30 minutes. The lines were about 6 to 8 blocks long. We had a good time of ministry - many kids and moms were there. I am including pictures of our day. We took stocking caps for the kids. The moms wanted some too. So next time we will take some bigger ones.

Home we are trying to Purchase in Rocky Ford, Colorado






These are more photos of our prospective home. If we purchase it we will likely be 6 months in Texas at Rio Grande Bible Institute and 6 months in Colorado for the near future.

The Home We are Trying to Purchase in Rocky Ford, Colorado
















Since July we have been trying to purchase a home on 33 acres near Rocky Ford, Colorado. Our offer was accepted in July, but we have had to delay the closing 3 different times due to an issue of water rights. It looks like it should close sometime in December. We made a trip to Colorado to talk with the realtors. We also talked to the man who has horses grazing in the pasture. It was a profitable visit, and we also had good times of fellowship with our friends there.

Cotton Fields of Northwestern Texas
















On our trip to Colorado we saw many, many cotton fields that were ready for harvest. We saw many cotton bales in the fields and the cotton gins. We had to stop and take some pictures. On Wed. night, Nov. 19, we stayed in Big Spring, Texas, and went on to Rocky Ford, Colorado, the next day.
