Home again!!

Well hey everyone!!
I just got back from Mexico Wednesday.. And it was awesome!! In a completely different way than last year.. but still extremely awesome!! God really used us this year!! In completely different ways. It's awesome to me how He used us in such a different way.. I'll explain hehe. Ok so wednesday.. The day we arrived.. we did practically nothing.. It was too late so we just found our rooms ate and went to bed. Thursday we trained. I was in drama this year (IT WAS AWESOME!! I never thought I actually enjoyed drama very much.. hehe) I was in two drama's Creation and chains. Creation was well practically telling about how God created us.. how we fell (This is where I got to punch and slap Hannah haha!!).. and then how Jesus died on the cross for us. And then it ends with Jesus chasing satan (Jao awesome!! cub hehe) off of the stage and then Him giving His heart to us and all the people in the audience.. Chains is a little different. The main guy (Matt) is tempted by all of these sins lust, greed, anger.. and he finally just gets so bogged down with all of the sins that when the christian girls (Rache and I) tell him about the bible and Jesus he decides to invite Jesus to be his savior. So we take him to Jesus (Stephen) and he took all of the burdons (The chains) Off of his shoulders!! It was really neat!! Well that's practically it. We did these drama's and some puppet shows and of course we had videos. But this year, instead of going out to a bunch of different places each day we stayed in the town and trained the local churches how to do these drama's and puppet shows!! Of course we still did these dramas and stuff. IN the town. But these local churches joined us. By sunday they did the whole show. It was soo
So anywho, the thing that was so neat about this is the fact that we trained people down there and they in turn are going out every monday through wednesday to do these shows!! God really works through these shows too. As long as they make sure and keep God in it.. man I can't imagine what God is going to do down there.. Every night that we went to the town.. I think it was somewhere around 20 people came to christ.. If they are doing this.. every monday tuesday and wednesday night... of every week... Just imagine!! IT'S SSSSSSSOOOOOOOO AWESOME!!!!!!!

Ok so that is one awesome thing. The second is a thing that happened to me personally. I befriended a little girl in one of the villages named Rosia. I talked to her.. asked her how old she was.. and she was sooo cute!! Well anyway.. Afterwards.. I thought she had just left without saying goodbye to me.. and I was really sad... But right as I was thinking about it.. she comes back with five other people. She went home... and got her whole family to meet me. She told them all about how I was her friend and was really nice to her.. And they all came up and introduced themselves and then gave me a hug and a kiss on the cheek... You guys prob don't even think anything of that.. but I do.. The fact that I could even communicate with her.. was tottaly a God thing.. Ohh gosh.. Seriously it was.. I swear I have never been able to remember all of that spanish that I learned.. except for this past week... YAY!! Ok well those are my two most awesome experiences.. I have a ton more.. but I don't have time to write it all out lol!!

I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!

Hey Sara! YEAH!! It was amazing!! I have a bunch of stories to tell whenever I get the chance on my blog, too! That was so cool about Rosia and her family.

Oh, and btw, I couldn't help but say this, but after we got there Wednesday, we worked like crazy bagging all the toys and candy and popcorn! I can't believe you didn't remember... well, I guess I can, since that was the first day and all. :D
