Hi friends! I wanted to update you all on what we are doing. Today our plan was to have our phones reactivated and then head out to our village and start cleaning our home. Hmmmm..... We sat at the phone company for 2 and a half hours and still didn't have our problems resolved. We left defeated and by that time we didn't have time to go to the village. We were told to come back in the afternoon and they would hopefully have our phone problems solved. So, Greg returned a few hours later only to find we still have no phones.
We are going to try again tomorrow. However, we are going to go to our village tomorrow and start the cleaning process so that hopefully soon we will be able to stay there. We really need phones before we are able to stay out there over night, so if you could pray for that, we would appreciate it. The hotel we are staying in is wonderful. However, after being together in a small room for 5 days now, we are getting a little cabin fever and starting to turn on one another. ;o) Not really, but I for one have been very snappy and Annie has been quite the crankster as well. The boys just crave being able to run, jump, wrestle and be loud. Greg, well, he just remains the same, calm, cool, and collected. However, he doesn't like it when we don't jump out of bed, bright and early in the morning like he does! :o) So, please pray we would have patience with each other and we would get settled soon.
We did have a wonderful reunion last night with some old M friends and that was fun. We were able to talk about what He is doing through them and what doors He is opening for them as well. We are happy to have fellow M's in the area (for the time being) to pray with and share our burdens with. Thank you all for lifting us up during this transition time as it can be hard on our family! Love you all! Missy
This blog was started in 2004 when Annie was badly burnt. Over the years we have seen how God has continually provided for us and answered our many prayers.
What kind of volunteer "village" opportunities would there be for me and a few friends with backgrounds similar to mine? Growing up in TX, I did LOTS of volunteer trips to the TX/MX border and LOVE the Hispanic culture...have been thinking/praying about possibilities of doing something in the next 12-18 months. Let me know what you think! Praying for y'all and your close quarters!!!
ReplyDeleteI just finished reviewing your last few blogs. Thanks so much Missy for writing and making us feel like we were on the trip with you. Once again, Thank The Lord for that camera. Those pictures were great. Not only the family ones, but of the country side to see what you all see. We will be praying that you get your phone so you can stay at home, and really get settled in. Will be praying that things go well on your return. Will be in touch soon. Love to you all.

I am so glad to hear y'all made it safely to Mexico. I love your blog! I check it almost daily! I'm sorry I missed your phone call but I was so happy that Annie called me. Jonathan and I are playing for y'all. Tell Annie I said "Hi" and give her a big hug from Mrs. Sorensen! We love y'all.
