Annual Retreat

We just returned last night from the annual retreat of Pastors, missionaries and church planting workers. What an amazing time it was.... although hard for us as well as we said good-bye to many. We have been truly blessed by the four years we have been able to serve here in Mexico. Never would we have imagined the heart-break and pain we are feeling as we prepare to leave. We leave feeling excited though about all the work that will carry on here. Indeed, Jesus is moving hearts here and people are accepting Him and growing in Him. God is good!
Gathered together for a time of awesome teaching about evangelism.... We are excited to put to practice all we have learned!
A poolside meeting.... as often happens much brainstorming took place during free time. Here Christian meets with Miguel (our national church President) and Alfredo (the national church secretary). It has been a great joy for Christian to work with these two men that he has grown to love and respect greatly.
We said lots of good-byes....and shed lots of tears. Here we are pictured with a dear family that works planting house churches in a near by town. We are humbled to have had the opportunity to work alongside such tireless servants of Jesus.
