We went to the city of Hidalgos light festival. No matter how many times you go it's still beautiful. A ride on the Ferris wheel made for some great views. Thursday was Padre Island day. Nice and warm before 50 mile per hour winds came.
Friday Kelly and I went to Mexico just in time for lunch at the Community Center with all the girls from the sewing class for a big party. Sara and Lori flew in from North Carolina to join the party.
Saturday we opened presents before going shopping at the outlet mall in Mercedes. 11 years here, first time to the mall. The girls bought Paula and I shoes and I got some skinny jeans.lol.
Its hard dropping them at the airport after only a,few days . Sunday we were commissioned and prayed for at church as we ready to leave for Chiapas Mexico to bring Christmas and Salvation to the mountain communities in that area. It was the first time in 11 years attending our church that our work in Mexico was acknowledged before the congregation. One man gave us a sizable check after the service.
Tomorrow we leave on our missions trip , so please pray that God would be glorified in the work he has for us there.
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL AND TO ALL A GOOD DAY.
Thanks for all the cards and donations that have come in lately. I started operating in doubt and cancelled our cable because of lower than normal finances. Oh ye of little faith. We're going to try to live without it.
