We started September by celebrating Molly's 2nd Birthday!
We have made friends here in our new neighborhood. Here is a picture of one of the favorite past-times in Mexico - Soccer, or futbol, as they say!
And, of course, the fun of playing in the rain crosses all cultures!!
Our Kid's Club is going well. We have made drama a regular part of our club. We either use puppets or make up skits to go along with our bible stories. Here are pictures from our "John the Baptist" skit. Noah was John the Baptist, Dylan (son of Marisol) was Jesus, the little girls were the bees that were flying around John (because he likes honey, you know!!) and Molly brought in the dove! The little kids performed the skit for the older kids.
We started English classes for children through adults. The first week at the kid's class we had 2 students, however, by the second week we were up to 9! That is without advertising!! We also have classes for older students and adults. Hopefully, through these classes we will be able to build relationships with people and open the door for bible studies.
September ended with an unexpected trip to Texas. We needed to renew our visas so we made a trip out of it and went to visit our missionary organization, CTEN, in Kerrville. We had a great visit and enjoyed our impromptu vacation! Lacy was able to celebrate her birthday in the states - complete with dinner at Applebee's and a Carvel Ice Cream Cake!! We also had the privlege of meeting Marisol's husband, Luis, who lives in San Antonio. We were able to bring back some things for her and the boys from Luis. Here are some pictures from the trip!
At the Riverwalk in San Antonio.
On the way back to Oaxaca - what a beautiful drive!

For His Glory,
Carl, Lisa, Lacy, Alia, Noah and Molly
