This morning we attended worship at Trinity 1st UMC in downtown El Paso. We had an amazing time, and the people were soo nice. We had a chance to meet one of the former b-ball players of Texas Western Basketball team who beat U of Kentucky for the national championship in 1963 0r 66. This is depicted in a newly released movie "Glory Road". He was a nice man, tall, and mentioned that Coach Haskins widow comes to service every Sunday.
After lunch we made our way to Mexico, it was a 3 minute broader crossing. The Rio Grande is just a small reservoir between the US and Mexico.
We are hear, a little tired, but enjoyed a COKE in glass - pure cane sugar.
The poverty is heavy, and we will be encountering some very poor areas tomorrow.
God is moving in many of our hearts. We even got in a neighborhood game of street soccer.
We are so thankful for safe and uneventful travel. Keep us in our prayers!

Hi Everyone,.
I hope you (especially the youth) take note of what you see there and say a thank you prayer for all you are blessed with! Go and make a differance in those people's life, even if it's just making them smile.
Can't wait to hear more.

Hello again everybody!
We hope that you all survived your first HOT day working in Mexico!...
Our thoughts and prayers are with you all... and ditto on making a positive difference in the lives of the people that you come in contact with... even if it's just a friendly smile... let them know you "see" them!
