speak English we learn to communicate with them in different ways.
Last night (Thursday) the women in the neighborhood came for a meeting
at the place where we sleep and brought there kids with them. I think
michelle said there were about 50 in all. My arms were sore by the end
of the night from swinging so many on the tire swing, but I really
enjoyed

Each night we return to the church as tired as can be .  The only thing that can energize us up is some legitimate grub.  The native mexican women prepare this food for us.  One night we had 1/2 of chicken and bbq pulled chicken, another night we had mexican beef stew, next night mexican meatballs, tonight quesadillas and steak.  Each night these entrees were accompanied with refried beans and rice with corn and tortillas.  We are truly grateful for the food that replenishes us physically and spiritually.
