<<<<<<

Picture in Zacatecas of a Mexican man plowing the fields in the dessert - more on this special place later. Hope they let this picture stay on!!

Anyway - I'm back and I had the most awesomely awesome time - I came back full - a piece of my heart always remaining in Mexico - an experience that has forever changed my life.

There are many pictures and many stories to tell - so look for more in the next few days.

I didn't sleep much because I didn't want to miss a thing - so am tired and need a couple days to rest up - but will be back in full gear in a day or two.

Haven't had a chance to see what's going on in the blogs while I was gone - hope everyone was behaving themselves.

It's good to be back - I will be talking with you - God bless you all!!

Hi Marilyn...welcome back; I know how life changing your first mission trip can be...you are forever changed; or as Joy Dawson, a YWAM teacher says "Forever ruined for the ordinary". I pray for God to continue the work that He started in Mexico and to keep the vision alive.

You are exactly right Nancy - so you have visited it also - it's like time stood still - the children so enjoyed just playing with a ball - no demand for computers or HD tvs or game boys or ipods or the like - I'm sure they don't even have a clue about those things. Thanx for the welcome and blessings to you!!

i truely love Mexico too,

it has such a simple beauty,and the way i remember it,(havent been there in about 10 years or so)that if your not spiritual when you get there, you will have a closer relationship to Christ by the time you leave.

The year and a half that i lived there,was the poorest i have ever been(living on a few dollars a day or so)

but comparing it to the rest of my life,it is probably one of the happiest times of my entire life.

i am so glad you had a good time Marilyn.

Thanx Marcos - haven't seen you in awhile - the people in Mexico do have a more laid back style of life - not always in a hurry and rush rush rush like here in the good ole' USA - the food was wonderful - no one was rude - not even once - I would go back there if I get another opportunity. Abundant blessings to you friend!!

ps - if you get a chance go on my blog and read my other Mexico posts!!
