My 3 new friends, Jeanie, Jordan, and Laura
Okay, so it wasn't quite hot enough to fry the egg today, but we are gonna try again tomorrow. ;o)
This dear woman's name is Gail. She cooked a meal for all of us tonight and opened her home up to the girls just to be a servant to us. She was precious!
These are the girls in our group tonight. Jenny on the far left was the leader and I just helped out. Notice who is right beside me? That is my new Mexican friend, Melissa. Oh you gotta love that we even have the same name! I think once I find my niche here, I'm gonna be just fine. But....please still pray for my friends back home! Thanks!
I love you guys! All I have to do is put my requests on here and wala, my day is better! Today my day was so much better!! I woke up with God quietly reminding me that He brought us out of Mexico at this time for a reason. It isn't exactly the safest place in the world for anyone in Mexico right now and it is probably a good thing that we are here. So, I decided early this morning I would do whatever I could to focus my attention on others today. I ended up spending much of my time at the ER with a nice woman in an apartment upstairs who just had knee surgery and was in a lot of pain. Once she was taken care of I returned home and spent a few hours talking to our next door neighbors about our time on the field. They were curious! Heehee, ain't God good!?!?! Then I went to a thing called Teen MOPS. It is a great outreach to teen mothers who need mentors and one was hispanic and they were looking for someone who could connect with her! HA!! HELLLLLLOOOO I am right here! :o) So, I was a very happy camper tonight as we met and talked to these dear girls and got to know each one of them and their situations. It was just what the Dr. ordered. That and all of you! Thanks for praying. Love you!! Missy
Love it Missy. Love how our God answers prayers--big and small--not always in our way or time but He does answer. So happy that you were able to bless others today and be even more blessed by it! Hey has that lady you met at the restaurant (I think that's where you said you met her) called you yet?
