Hey Everybody,
This experience has been a life changing thrill ride (the streets are really hilly, it makes it ironic). As much as I miss everybody back home, the people here have made Cuernavaca feel just like home. Doug told us the other day that anywhere that you have a Christ family, you can have a home. The team here is soo dynamic in that they know how to work together to make people feel like they’ve been here forever. Doug and Sandy know how to talk to people. They can find people off the streets and in minutes they have a new best friend.
Jenny, Andrew, Gabby, and Eileen have been amazing. Jenny and Andrew are the to AIMers that live here right now. They are really friendly and kinda weird, but thats why they fit in perfectly with our group. I really think they have enjoyed themselves just as much as we have. Gabby is a really sweet girl who lives in Cuernavaca. She is studying english and speaks pretty well, but she’s still very self-conscious about it. Even though she doesn’t speak very much english she has been there with us pretty much everyday. When we ate lunch after church on Sunday, Andrew told us that even though Gabby said she would come she hardly does, but somehow by God’s grace she showed up and stayed with us the whole week. Eileen is an older girl who grew up here in Mexico. When she was a senior she went to the US to be a foreign exchange student in either North or South Carolina. She’s now almost engaged to a missionary that lived here in Cuernavaca and she is overwhelmed with joy. She has one more year of college left and then she wants to get married. She has helped us so much with history, culture, and most importantly translation.
There are so many people here doing so many good things here in Cuernavaca in God’s name.
