So i celebrated the 4th of July in Mexico and it was an interesting experience.Haha. We spent the day preparing for our next group of mission trip participants to arrive. Then tonight we had dinner and shot off fireworks. A GFM tradition is to sing the Star Spangled Banner with a mouthful of pop rocks. Im not sure why, but we had close to 60-70 white "gringos" singing our national anthem proudly tonight. IT was a fun memory. It wasnt quite the same as celebrating in the states but oh well! Im in mexico!
I had some free time to get on the computer so i figured i would write a quick update.Its not much, but i will put more up later. Pray for me as the next 10 days my schedule will be jammed packed.
Thinking of you all!

Hi Ashley, This is your cousin Belinda. I took your mom and sister (Nichole) shopping today! They are so proud of you! Everything was, Ashley this and Ashley that! All good stuff! I know you miss them, but your sacrifice is bringing the hope of our Lord to others. And it will be over before you know it!
I just realized I spelled Nicole's name wrong. I have another friend named Nichole and I had JUST emailed her! So sorry!
