My Birthday at the water park and my awesome cake that looked just like my guitar!
hanging out with some cool kids from colonia M
Our Tuesday study at the University!
This month I have seen so many answered prayers! The university ministry though slow is growing...one week we have no one show up and then the next week 2 and then back to 0 and so on but this past week we had 6! It was seriously miraculous :) We invite people every week and every week they have excuses or they just flat out say no. This past week we had 5 people come that we had never even met before - they just chose not to make excuses! It was a huge blessing. Please keep praying for this time we have each Tuesday at the university.
Also, In colonia M, one of the neighborhoods we have been working in for a while now, we had 3 people from the study, a mom, a daughter, and the daughter's husband, accept Christ! We went over to chat with them about some doubts they were having and we talked for about 2 hours. They had a LOT of questions but it was only encouraging to see that they had seriously been thinking about what we had been studying. At the end they accepted Jesus and we have continued studying with them and will continue. Please pray for this group and these 3 new believers. Also please pray for them as they are facing a very difficult time in their lives. The daughter is also a new mom, her baby is about 5 weeks old and has been in the hospital practically all her life. She was born with a tumor on her spine and is seriously ill. Please pray for her healing and for comfort for this family.
Also, my birthday was on the 6th and my fellow missionaries went out of their way to have a party for me! it was wonderful...we ate some great food followed by the coolest cake I have ever eaten! Also I went to a water park with some friends to celebrate my birthday and that was also a blast! Overall it was a pretty great Birthday :) Thanks for remembering and sending me so many Birthday wishes!
I am feeling pretty scattered in my thoughts as I try to write this update - this month seems to have been so packed with events. I am very thankful for all of your prayers and messages that I have received. I love receiving your notes of encouragement :) I am so blessed to be lifted up by so many of you.
My last bit of news as you already know is that I will be going home for Thanksgiving. I leave this coming monday - one week! Please pray for my time at home that it would be sweet and relaxing. And please pray that the work here in Mexico will start up again fast when I get home. Thank you all so much!
Here is a video from my Birthday at the water park - we dominated the slide! :)
