The Carrubbers Team

What a blessing it has been to have the team from Carrubbers here. It's like having a little piece of home here in Mexico. How are we going to say goodbye?! For now we are excited to have them here, to show them what we do and to enjoy fellowship as much as is possible. They've had a varied week with an overview of the ministry on Monday in the form of the prayer walk. On Tuesday they had their first trip to a street group. On Wednesday they went get first hand experience of the church planting work. On Thursday they went to one of the huge markets to buy decorations for a special event in the Drop-In Centre on Monday and on Friday they helped to set up the area for the Mexican Independence Day party in the Seminary.
We were overwhelmed by how many gifts they had brought out. It almost made us homesick looking at all the treats! Couldn't resist taking a picture of the Haribo sweets! We truly feel spoiled (and loved!)
Here we all are on Tuesday night enjoying a typical Mexican meal thanks to Guille (our pastor's wife). Chicken in a chili sauce with traditional Mexican rice.
