We're officially on our way back to Mexico! We left yesterday (November 26th) from my parent's home in West Salem, OH and drove to Charleston, WV. On the way, we stopped at Bro. Paul Deem's warehouse to load up with Scriptures and Christmas Shoe Boxes of Joy. We completely filled the trailer, even a little bit over the maximum recommended weight. We're just driving slower! Today we drove from Charleston, WV to Knoxville, TN. We'll visit with our dear friends (practically family) at Knoxville Baptist Tabernacle in the morning, and then present our ministry with the good folks at Harriman Baptist Tabernacle tomorrow evening.
Then it's off to Livingston, LA to stay in a prophets chamber on Monday night, then to Spring, TX to stay in a prophets chamber there, then on Wednesday (December 1st) we'll present our ministry in Helotes, TX. We'll be "free" for the following 2 days, and we'll find some free stuff to do around San Antonio. We plan on going soul-winning in Killeen, TX on Saturday, December 4th, and then present our work there during the AM service the next day. That evening, we don't have any planned meeting so we may just stay in town and resist the temptation of just driving home to Mexico. We're still praying about it. We'll see!
Monday, December 6th we'll officially be headed to Mexico! We plan on staying at the border that evening and then crossing on Tuesday morning, to arrive home that afternoon. Talk about excited! There is so much to do, so much to get started and finished--it will be good to be home.
Please pray for our support to go up. That's all we want and need. We want to live, work, and be IN Mexico for good. Thanks for your interest and time! God bless you!

Ain't God Good
It's been so busy but so great to serve God the last couple weeks. We've had great meetings, met great bunches of people, and just had a wonderful time on deputation. Last Sunday we visited a church in Beckley, WV for both services, and got invited back to present the work officially next spring.
Monday was another day on the road, but it was fine. Today I got up early to drive 4 hours away to pick up a trailer to fill up for Mexico, and then another 4 hours to get to our meeting for church tonight. It was a combination meeting--most importantly my sister Angie got baptized. We got to present our work and preach. It was a joyous time. The people from the church were so kind and everything went very well. God's so fantastic towards us!
Tomorrow will be a long errand running day. We need to get the trailer registered and renew the registration on the van, then go on a shopping spree for our trip to Mexico. It will be our last opportunity to stock up on the stuff the we either can't get or is too expensive in Mexico. Thursday is Thanksgiving, of course, and then we're back on the road on Friday.
