We have been joined this week by Pastor Larry of Calvary Baptist Church in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania and Jim Crozier of Camp Caroline in Caroline, Alberta. These men have been a great blessing to us. Pastor Larry has the gift of evangelism. He and Marcel spent some time street evangelizing while they were downtown being tourists. As they gave a Bible to one man, another man who had been listening intently but off to the side came over to them and asked, "Do you have another Bible for me?" They did happen to have just one more and it was meant for this second man. Pastor Larry has also given us some timely wisdom and been an encouragement to us and the Ruiz family. Jim Crozier helped us think through some strategic planning regarding the Retreat Center in Acolman. His years of camp ministry experience where beneficial to us as well. Our thanks to their families and ministries for "sharing" their gifted leaders with us for a few days! The photos we share today are: 1) the edge of the garden at the Retreat Center 2) our new windows on the boys' dormitory 3) Pastor Larry visiting with our colleague, Moises and the Retreat Center caretaker, Carolina and 4) a rare, clear morning when we could see the volcanoes Itza and Popo from our house in the NW of Mexico City.

Hi! I am on here looking for pictures & info on the CMBC team that is with you right now. Is this the same retreat center that they are working on? I heard Marcel was not feeling well. Hope you are feeling better today. It was fun to see the pictures of your family - we enjoyed having you at our house for dinner a few years back! God bless, Linda Olson
