Hola friends and family!
So far, after a safe flight and arrival, I´ve seen our wonderful new guest house and the gorgeous new Youth Home!
As some of you may remember from my FB pictures, I did get reacquainted with beautiful little Ximena yesterday. All of us on the team had a delightful afternoon with the Youth and staff. Today after church we´ll be going to Cholula for sightseeing/shopping. Love you all!! Becky

Feliz Cumpleaños (Happy Birthday) to my brother Daniel!
Today we laid cement bricks and filled the cracks with dirt to create a foundation for a storage shed. We also removed some patches of cement from the yard so it would be safer for the children to play in it. The children, by the way, seemed to have a great time with our activities this afternoon. Love you all! Becky

Hey everyone! The trip is going excellent! I feel like I’ve really been developing close bonds with my fellow teammates as well as with our Lord. It was sooo cool to experience the church service on Sunday! Just to see all these people jumping up and down as we sang worship songs. Even the teenagers joined in! That was a bit of a shock for me, who is used to teens being a bit more stand-off-ish. But seeing these 15-18 year old soo excited in their faith was an encouragement and made me feel challenged to seek the Lord as they do when I go back to my “normal” life =)
Thank you so much for your prayers!

Today is a good day. God impresses me not so much with nature though it is beautiful, but with people what He does through them for his glory. One thing I am glad to see is the boys at the orphanage. They have been a joy to be with very energetic God blesses children in such wonderful ways. Just need to remember we are all God´s children. I want to praise laud and give him my thanks and gratitude for Ana Patricia, that she is learning more and more about God through his word showing Christina and I her bible and the verses she has been studying the first day. I pray God will continue to do mighty things in her life for his namesake, his glory, and according to his promises. Thank you God for your goodness!
