Thank you all of the prayers. Bad news first: we were denied our residency. After our lawyer pleaded on our behalf for two hours and although the government official wanted to help us, he simply could not due to the laws. Good news: Even though we have to start the process again, this time we are working with an excellent Christian lawyer, the process will be done correctly from the beginning, and we should receive the residency with no issues.

Thank you for all of the prayers! Permission was granted and we have an appt at 9am Monday morning in Mexico City to receive our residency papers. Please pray for safety as we travel 10 hours south and for a smooth process. Thankful for friends and fellow missionaries there who are letting us crash at their house for the weekend.

After taking a few days’ hiatus as a family, we’re repacking/reorganizing/preparing to enter Mexico. We hope to be back to our other home today. We can’t wait to see our friends there and our pets. Thanks you for all of your prayers!

After 6 weeks of traveling and sharing about the ministry, we are heading back to Mexico. We plan to stretch out the trip to include a few days to unplug as a family before heading back into Mexico and and to accommodate Melanie also driving a vehicle. She’s usually doing the sleeping, not the driving, so we will drive shorter distances each day. We are so thankful for the new van. We are packed from front to back in two vehicles and the trailer because of all the donations given to the ministry. Thank you!! God-willing, we’ll do it all again next year.
