On Saturday we put on our long pants and made a visit to our friends in Mexico. There have been hordes of mosquitos here following the hurricane last week, and we thought they might be worse in Mexico. Therefore, the reason for long sleeves when it is the high 90's. Fellow missionaries here, the Skelton family, went with us to Mexico. Jean made a huge pot of soup to take to them. (We saw very few mosquitos there.)
The family that we especially try to help there has asked repeatedly for a sewing machine. Well, yesterday morning we called the Singer Sewing Center and were able to buy a good used sewing machine at a fairly reasonable price. So we were able to bless them with a sewing machine.
We visit 2 different area so the pictures represent both. When we arrived at the second area, the newest mom came and handed me her tiny baby girl. I had many items of newborn baby girl clothing, so she was happy.
When we returned to campus, we were able to spend some time with a visiting missionary family. I had the oldest child, Rosa, in daycare when she was 2. It was a joy to visit with the Matuszczak family who are ministering in Oaxaca, Mexico.
I still am unable to label pictures so I can only give them a title. Sorry.
This Monday through Wednesday will be our annual RGBI retreat. Then Language School will begin the following Monday, and Bible Institute the following week.
