The first week of school is upon us here at the UNAM, after a summer of interns and trips and retreats!
Currently the new class of 35,000 is getting settled in while the other 140,000 reconnect with familiar surroundings. A few tens of thousands are at home this week, wishing they could have scored just a […]
This past week, in addition to English Clubs and intern studies, we were at the Salvation Army Orphanage with a number of students putting on a vacation Bible school. We had about 30 kids on the first day, and about 60 kids on the last two days. It was a great time with puppets, crafts, […]
There are a couple of new galleries up at Smugmug - one gallery is from our trip on Saturday to the pyramids of Teotihuacán, and the other is from our taco and game night with the English Club last Wednesday.
This week is going to be full with English Clubs Monday and Friday and a vacation […]
I haven’t posted much lately, and what I have posted has not been that interesting! If you want something more scintillating, I suggest…
Update on visit to orphanage at Josh and Amy’s blog.
Updates on intern thoughts at Abby and Meredith’s blogs.
In addition to the normal activities…
Today we receive 2 summer interns for six weeks.
Tomorrow we are visiting a local orphanage after church to play/teach/craft with 60 or so kids.
This week I’ll be hosting some folks who are coming through on their way to the National Presbyterian Church of Mexico’s Church Planting Conference.
Should be fun!
We have a couple of summer interns coming in for six weeks starting today! Pray for Abby Shackleford and for Meredith Cooper as they adjust to the culture and settle in for an intense few weeks of learning and serving here in the glorious Federal District.
I commend to you the blog of Josh and Amy Oettle, where you can read about our recent earthquake experience as well as see shots from our first talent show. Check it out!
We had a great time with the students from USF and now we have another group from Trinity University in San Antonio for Holy Week. May the Lord bless you this “Domingo de Ramos”!
Tomorrow Ruth and I will leave our pleasant lake top valley for the cold north of southern Texas. We’ll be visiting some of our supporting churches and hopefully some of you!
