Volcano

Finally we were able to get a picture of the Volcano that's close to Tapachula! Usually it's been either cloudy or else hazy from heat and you couldn't see it. Its actually half in Mexico and partly in Guatemala. They say its an active volcano, but the top blew at one point and it spews mostly on the other side.

New Books

Saturday, the pastor of the HIM church about 2 hours away came to Tapacula to visit, and he brought some copies of Joy Budensiek's book 'Jesus, My very Best Friend' in English and Spanish. There was enough of them we were able to give all the kids one who were in Tapachula in the morning and also in Santa Domingo that evening.

3 little monkeys

I seem to have 3 little monkeys who love bananas! Good thing for them they are very cheap here!

A day out with the youth

Last Saturday we took 7 young people from the church in the mountains to the River for the afternoon! We all had a great time. It was a beautiful river in the jungle woods (that's probably not the right way to say it, but there was trees & woods, like I would know in PA and also some more jungle greens too). The water was SO COLD! But it was very hot, so it was perfect! I forgot to take the camera down there, so no pictures of that part of the day...but after we were done there, 3 of them came home with us for home made pizza, popcorn, cookies & Coke. We played in the park here by the house, looked at pictures, ate & talked! Please pray for these young people. They have been coming Sunday evenings for the past few weeks and I know the one service God was really talking to them.

Kids!
