To our dear friends,
This is going to be a shorty, sorry. We find ourselves with very little time left here, the days are going faster and faster. We are trying to spend time with our friends before we leave, fitting in packing and other necessaries when we can. I have one last little paper to write for school, kind of a wrap up summary of my internship. After that, we’re home free.
The schedule: Today, hung out with Dennis and Jenelle, Nathan and Ben. We went to the Zocolo for the big Christmas fest. They had a mini sledging hill, and a huge skating rink; even a place to build little snow men! Thursday, clean and pack, write the blasted paper, maybe hang out with Dennis; maybe lunch with Huberto. Friday, maybe more packing, hanging out with the Poulett’s for dinner. Saturday, there is a group of youth from the church and seminary going to the Zocolo for more of the Christmas celebrations. I managed to take a few pictures of the fun’ness when we went today and will have them in photo bucket shortly. Sunday is a special church service in a restaurant where we get to hang out, eat breakfast, and have the sermon right there. It will be our last Sunday here. In the afternoon we will be bequeathing the possessions that we acquired for daily living here in Mexico to a couple our age that we met here. They are to be married in about 6 months and could use some of our stuff for setting up house. On Monday, we finish the packing, and scrub the apartment down floor to ceiling (we try to leave things better then we found them) and then trying to get a good nights sleep because on Tuesday we need to lave by 8:00am in order to make it to the airport four hours early to catch our flight. While there, we hope to meet the guy from Japan (or China?) who has been living in the airport for the last few months. It’s like that movie, only real. Haha

Merry Christmas!


Please pray for: Jobs for when we return to Huntington; for our ministry with our core kids, that their faith is strengthened; that God would use us even as we are preparing to leave.
—Shalom.
