Mexico Revisited

Dear Friends and Family,

Living in Mexico for the time that I did really embedded my heart and soul into the country itself. Though I've been away from her for 2 years, she has never been far from my heart. That being said, I have felt a real pull on my heartstrings to return to Oaxaca is some way and to alleviate the glimpses of poverty that were evident even on our sheltered school excursion.

I have been busy with finishing school and chasing things that I thought were important in life. Now that school is behind me, and my goals have shifted, I have a heart wide open to accompanying a missions trip to Oaxaca, for however long, to be used in whatever way.

I am currently in contact with Forward Edge International, a local Vancouver based missions organization that offers regular trips to Oaxaca to not only assist in a medical clinic, but also in the lives and homes of the beautiful people of Oaxaca.

Please assist me in praying that God will open doors to Oaxaca and that I will be able to fully give all of my heart to this missions trip.

Para cerar, voy a dar este oracion:

Keep us near your heart, O Lord, keep us in your hands and in your thoughts.
Show yourself to us through your work and through each other.
Allow us to be examples of you every day.
Allow us to be a support system grounded in you.
Allow us to comfort and love in your Holy name.
Love us, teach us to love.
Feed us, teach us to feed others.
Listen to us, so that we may better hear others.

Amen.
