Hola.. just came back from mexico yesterday for missions and it was a blessing... lots of fun though there was so much to do.. very tiring.. very hot...

I got sick almost every day during the trip... whether it be bds (burning dongungmong sensation).. fever.. throwing up.. diahrea...black poop... it kind of got me frustrated at some points..i couldnt even go out to one of the 2 nights of evanglizing in the local park.. i felt as if i could go but that i would throw up again in the park or in the car ride there..

The kids were very fun and enthusiastic.. they loved all of us so much and looked up to us in many ways.. and i feel like we did a good enough job of setting good examples.. showing Christ' love to them..

The trip was a true blessing to all of us.. i believe that many of us have grown spritiually and that all of us have come to appreciate more and more the blessings, comforts and conveniences that we experience every day but have taken for granted.. I just pray that none of us would forget this trip and all the things that we have learned.. but to truly take everything to heart.. realizing that we are really blessed where we are right now and that we should use our blessings to bless others..

I pray that we would not lose our passion to evangelize or think that we cant evangelize to others if we're not in a different country but continue to try and spread the gospel wherever we go...

I pray that we would continue to strengthen our faith... continue to arm ourselves with God's word so that the next time we go, if we go, that we would be more prepared...

I thank God once again for everything.. the trip.. our safety.. our growth.. our opportunity...
