Cleveland Team Departs






The Cleveland team from Parma Heights Baptist Church departed for home this last Monday. It was an interesting end to the week. The English camp saw 35 kids attend and we are anticipating an event with some of these kids this weekend. Pray for good attendance. Our evening event for the parents saw a good attendance of both kids and parents and we all enjoyed a great time of getting to know one another while eating tacos. On Saturday we all went downtown to do the usual tour but this time I included a little time for some kids to go to an area that specializes in selling soccer jerseys. As we made our way to the Zocolo we were able to see the lowering of the flag which is performed daily at 6 pm by the Mexican Army. The next day it was off to the Christ Lives Bible Church where Pastor Dan preached and Moises interpreted. Following the service we went to the pyramids. Sadly, nobody was able to ascend the pyramids because as we were about to go up, an incredible storm of marable-sized hail, rain and wind came up and pounded our group. Several of us huddled under umbrellas and others ran for shelter. All in all, the group's time in Mexico turned out well. I want to say "thanks" to all you people from Cleveland for your nice gifts and the many emails of thanks that have been pouring in. Blessings all!!!
