Mexico Monday (a day late): 10 years ago

Ten years ago, I made my first trip to Mexico. We traveled to Jaumave, where we painted a village church. A few years later, a massive storm sent water running through the wooden structure, causing the wood to rot. This is a picture of the rebuilt church.

Ten years ago, on our way down or up (I can’t remember), we stayed at a place called “Way of the Cross”. I remember sitting in the white benches outside the building.

I remember singing our trip theme song “Down at Your Feet, O Lord” around an electric piano in the chapel.

When we stayed at Way of the Cross on our way back up to Laredo this time, the chapel and other buildings had sustained damage from Hurricaine Dolly and were in a state of disrepair.

There have been many changes in the ten years since I first visited Mexico. Some have been good, some have been bad. One thing is certain, Mexico is in need of still more laborers. Pray that the Lord of the harvest would send laborers into His harvest.
