ABC WEDNESDAY LETTER " M "


Todays letter for ABC Wednesday is the letter " M ".
" M " is for MEXICO.
That's where I'm headed on Wednesday.
Our church is MAKING a MAJOR  MISSION trip over the Easter break.
Its hard to fathom something of this MAGNITUDE.
We are traveling enMASS with 615 High School and Collage students.
That's a lot of cars and box trucks caravaning MANY, MANY MILES from California
to a small town in MEXICO.
We MUST bring everything with us, in fact people say our compound looks
like a MILITARY MASH unit.
MY job is being part of the Food Team.
That's a lot of MEALS  for 600-700 people every day for a week!
There will be MUCH  MUSIC and MAD-CAP fun.
So I think I will be off line for the next 10 days.
No internet, phones or MALLS.
I hope to have a MYRIAD of photos on my return.
MUCHAS gracias for all your MANY thoughts and prayers.

The Mexican people are terrific folks...so cheerful and helpful. I'm assuming that you'll be going to a village. Is it remote and approximately where is it located? I envy you the wonderful experience, in a country that doesn't deserve the kind of politics and drug cartels that exist in some places. We had to cancel our trip to Mazatlán and I am still sad about it.
