Saying Goodbye to Ixtapaluca

Short post here. It`s a quarter to one and I have to be at the church at 8 tomorrow morning.

Very busy day. Had `graduation` for VBS this morning. The drama team did a great job with the drama, which was followed by a sermon by Ismael. I could understand almost all of Ismael`s sermonette, which was great. He played of the drama well and talked about Jesus`claim to be the way, the truth and the light, and to be the only way to God. We had 140 kids in attendance and at least 32 parents, so it was a good morning.

Most of the afternoon was spend getting ready for tonight`s going away party. We had lots of food, humorous awards (I won the Most Social Award, James won the Person Who Slept Through the Most VBS Classes Award, and Josh won the Person Who Spoke Spanish The Most Award)

We had a time of worship and sharing. Very emotional time for both the Americans and Mexicans.

Tomorrow, we`ll help lead worship and then leave the church service before noon to catch our flight back to the U.S.

More later,

tim
