Mexico Missions Trip

2013 Dear Praying Friends and Family:

We have arrived safely in Monterrey. Saturday two children's homes arrived at the Back2Back campus and our team enjoyed swimming, soccer and a meal with 50+ children.

Today we will spend the day at a children's home. Daily, there are about 200 people here going out to about 10 homes or squatter's villages.

The Back2Back, B2B, campus is surrounded by mountains and birds and this morning we enjoyed a cacophony of new and pleasant bird calls as the sun rose.

We covet your prayers for physical health, mental health, language barriers and travel mercies.
