A Busy Week

Last week was a busy week. We had a mission team from the Chicago area ministering in Oaxaca. One of the highlights of the week, for me, was the visit of Dr. Poncho. Dr. Poncho is the pastor of the Jersusalen Covenant Church in Cuernavaca. He and another Cuernavaca church member joined the U.S. mission team. When I first came to Mexico in 1999, I lived for 6 weeks with Dr. Poncho and his wife, Robertina, while I attended language school. It was wonderful to minister together with Dr. Poncho during the health fair that was part of the mission team's ministry.
One day during the Vacation Bible School program, children made their own soap sculptures as part of the craft project.
Children and adults enjoyed singing songs such as the song on the poster "Jesus Loves Me."
Girls enjoying a Bible story book
Game time often included playing with a colorful parachute
During the morning, we had a health fair where we saw over 150 people from the community.
On the last day, members of the Vicente Guerrero Covenant church prayed for the group.
