Mexico Visit!


From Jill: We will be visiting Mexico for two weeks and are SO EXCITED!!!! We will spend Friday night near the airport at a dear friends house, then fly out Saturday morning. We will be met in LA by my brother Jamie, who will then give Ed an evening speed tour of Hollywood! Sunday morning we have the joy of attending Oasis Christian Center where my cousin Philip Wagner preaches, then off to San Diego. We spend one night in San Diego at our Morgan cousins home, then it's off to Mexico on Monday! Hooray!
We will attend a Mexican Medical Missions annual retreat in Puerto Nuevo with many of the missionaries from the Baja peninsula. We don't know quite what to expect, since it's our first one, but there will probably be lots of fellowship, prayer and training.
After the retreat we head further south to the Gabriel House, which is home to the 30 or so handicapped children that we hope to work with full time. We are PUMPED for this visit! Spending time with the children and our hosts Ted and Renie Faver will be the highlight of our trip!
After the Gabriel House we head back to the States for a few days of intensive training. Then we spend our last hours with my brother again in LA, and continue the speed tour! We'll fly back east on Saturday the 11th. Maybe we'll even make it to church on the 12th!
Please Pray for travel mercies, for us to be flexible and open to what God has planned for us, and for us to be blessings to all those we encounter.
We will be posting blogs often and with photos! Please keep checking in! Blog ya later! Dios le Bendiga! (God Bless you!)
