We're back!!

Just returned this afternoon from Mexico..a great prayer retreat of missionaries from Mexico, Central America and Surinam who work with indigenous people groups. It was wonderful getting to know each other and hearing of God's working in and through their lives.

We traveled by plane and bus...it wasn't a chicken bus for sure!


...then traveled to Puebla.


We ate RIBS a Tony Roma's...YUM!


saw friends from language school, Aaron and Gaby, Mylee and Evie.


Saw ice covered mountains...


and volcano...



and enjoyed Krispie Creme doughnuts!


We met together, met in small groups. We worshipped in English, we laughed together, we cried together, and we prayed together. Together we were revived and refreshed for the year before us.


We are so thankful to Longview Heights Baptist Church from Olive Branch, Mississippi who shared in leading worship, in caring for the children and youth, and allowed their paster to refresh our hearts with words directly from God. Here's a picture of our missionary children who presented a program to us on the final day.


It was a time of...
connecting with others who partner with us in reaching indigenous people in this part of the world.
