To Mexico or Bust!!

Let the packing begin! As I write this, I am thinking about how I will be on a plane in exactly one month. Yes, that’s right, June 29th I will be flying to San Antonio, TX and meeting the Hadingers! From there, we will cross the border and drive down to Oaxaca. Believe it or not, I’m looking forward to the two day drive. We’ll see so much of Mexico and it will be an easy way to get to know Mike, Ilona and Katie quickly! There’s nothing like a good road trip!

Once I arrive, I will help Mike and Ilona with summer teams. We will have outreaches to some of the surrounding indigenous communities where we will be helping with vacation Bible schools. I may also get to help around the Bible College where Mike teaches. As I adjust to my new surroundings and as the Hadingers get to know me better, they will plug me in as needed in other areas of ministry, as well. I’m looking forward to sharing the stories with you in the future!
Financial Update
God has proved His faithfulness through the generosity of the body of Christ. I am happy to report that my fund-raising is complete! That means that as long as those who have made monthly commitments to support me keep on giving or begin giving now that I will be leaving, I will be able to stay in Mexico for the next year. If you are one of my faithful monthly givers, thank you! As the year progresses, your giving will be absolutely vital to keep me in Mexico. I thank God for you and pray that God blesses you in abundance. Thank you to all who have given!
Prayer Needs
1. Saying goodbyes to my family, the kids I have cared for these past years, and friends.
2. Transitioning from Montana to Mexico— moving, meeting the Hadingers and getting settled in Mexico.
3. Summer teams and other ministry I will be involved in once I arrive. Pray that God will open the hearts of the people of Mexico and prepare us to reach the children through vacation Bible schools.
