Our First Official Teachings! (In Spanish!)

Andrea and I had a great time this week giving our first official teachings,in Spanish, in the Ejidos! I gave a teaching on why God created us and Andrea spoke on trusting in God and His providence.

Father Paulo, the local pastor, has asked us to try and walk through the catechism this year with the people in the ranchos he has assigned to us.

We sing a couple songs before starting the teaching.

Eliza loves to help hold the signs.

Hows this for a "can we keep him" face!

Everyone like my drawing of a chicken (gallina)

As a treat we were able to support the people here by purchasing some lena (mesquite wood) for barbecuing.

We discovered they have some miniature horses as well.

  

God Blessed us with a beautiful sunset that night!

Andrea's teaching was a couple nights later in the Ejidos called Santa Ines and Cuchilla de Indio.

Eliza always manages to find a dog friend!

This baby is three months old, so of course Andrea was going to hold Him!

It was so rewarding teaching these who are so hungry for the faith.  Please continue to pray for us as we continue to teach and share the faith.  Pray in particular for the men of these Ejidos.  If you notice in the pictures they don't come to any church type services.  

God Bless you all!
