End of the Trail Party!

Last night was the final LST party for 2009 and it was incredible!! More than 65 people came which more than doubled last week's party! What a fun time we had - and we are so sad to be leaving these ones we have come to love so very much! Below is a photo of the readers who came and received certificates. Each one is special to us and more special to God!

We are so thankful to have been given this opportunity to share God's Word with these amazing people! We love LST and the people of Morelia!! We will continue to pray for each precious soul God brought to us.

Thank you so much to those who helped us come and take part in this project! We have been blessed beyond all measure! And to him who is able to do more than we can even ask or imagine - to Him be the glory forever!!

Morelia, Mexico

What an amazing day!

I love Mexico!! The people in this place are the most gracious and generous I have ever met! It is amazing to me how sweet and precious we have been treated - we are spoiled indeed! Thank you Lord for bringing us to Morelia.

We walked to the office this morning as the weather was so beautiful! We all had readers coming and enjoyed our time with them. I love LST! What a great gift we have been given to become such good friends in such a short amount of time. And LST has provided a way to share God, His Word and ourselves in a unique way for such an eternal purpose! We are overwhelmed with His goodness to us!

You have heard us talk about Gabby and his son. Tonight they took us to Itzia's family's home who had prepared quesadillas that were absolutely 'muy rico'! And then aroz con leche for dessert followed by 'the best coffee in Mexco from Urapan'! Carissa and Gabby practiced the song they will sing at the last LST party on Thursday. God has blessed her with a gorgeous voice! She is singing a song in Spanish and they all loved it!

It is late (or early) so must get to bed. Bless you all for the help and support you gave for us to come to this beautiful country!

Sunday worship

Today we were able to worship with the Rio de Vida church. Sam and Ann Gonzalez are the missionaries here and they are very busy with many great things happening. They have been so sweet and supportive of all the LST teams here and we appreciate them so much. What a blessing they are to the church here.

After church, Gabby and his son Gabo and their friend Itzia took us to see Patzcuaro - a beautiful little town that has a beautiful square and lovely restaurants. And, of course, some shopping! This is such a great country and the people go out of their way to be a blessing to us. Gabby and Gabo are both reading with us and Itzia will start tomorrow! Gabby's wife Lulu is in Austin for a few more weeks but she has read with LST too.
