Last Monday afternoon we boarded a plane to Mexico City to meet with the National Human rights director of Mexico of Human rights. We arrived at our hotel at 5pm. Paula invited her niece and nephew to join us for dinner, Shawn and Carla Estes invited a couple they met in language school who planted a church in Mexico City, Jaime also invited two friends to join us as well. We all day around a huge table in the rooftop restaurant at the hotel. Paula's niece and nephew have been grieving the loss of their mother, Paula's half sister. The conversation turned to spiritual things and we were able to minister to their hurting hearts. It was truly a divine appointment.
Our meeting went very well with Trinidad and his son. We talked for several hours and look forward to working with them, to further help the people of Mexico. We enjoyed a meal on the streets of the city at a taco stand and parted company. We then boarded a tour bus to see the sites of the city. A double decker bus tour of 3 hours was awesome. Many beautiful sites to see.
Upon returning on Wednesday, Pat, Mark, and Kaylen we're waiting at our house. Kaylen is interning with Big Heart Orphanage for a month and they drove her down. We were expecting a load of beans to come, but that was delayed a day. We enjoyed a meal at Saltgrass Steak house before they headed to the orphanage.
The beans arrived Thursday afternoon courtesy of Rick Caywood Ministries. 28,000 pounds more of food for the poor. I had been sick all day and still continue with some stomach bug. A few others that went to Mexico City are also suffering a bit. Bad street tacos, or something else? Pray for all of us, as we recover.
Bethany Church came last night to get 6 thousand pounds of beans. They feed 5000 families a month and we are honored to provide them with all the beans and rice they need. We can't feed everyone, but we can try!!! l8tr
