Quick update

We have been extremely busy since leaving Mexico on Furlough. Right now, there are 9 children ages 1 through 8 years old, running around me so I won't even try to write something right now, in Illinois.

Here is Jessie leading worship at Church Upon the Rock. The next picture is of Jessie, John and Elizabeth at our old College Bethany College of Missions just before we shared with the students about our ministry.



Here are some pictures from our town that I meant to put up before we left. The first is of the sugar cane factory and the second is of one of the trucks full of sugar cane waiting to go into the factory. Sugar cane is one of the main crops in our state of Jalisco.



The first is of rows and rows of the plant that tequila is made of. It takes 8 years before it is ready to be harvested. Our state of Jalisco is known for it's major production of Tequila, which is creates a huge problem of Alcoholism through out Mexico. The second is one taken in a local park that we were walking through. The breaker box is wrapped to a tree. There are no such organizations like OSHA in Mexico.
