Mexico Mission: Day 5, Tuesday April 14th

Woohoo!! I was up first and had a hot shower!. Had to get up at 4:45am but it was worth it. I sat in the dark before sunrise, making a few notes this morning. It was nice and quiet for about 45 minutes and then the dead started rising. Tomorrow morning I am going to use the video camera to capture the morning action. You should see some of the rats nests that the girls wake up with (sorry no pics, I wanted to survive this trip). Marin, you win by far.

Breakfast was another success. Many families came out to enjoy eggs and chorizo sausage in a tortilla.

The afternoon was spent at the beach front where the youth were challenged with stretching their comfort zone. They had an opportunity to perform their dramas in public and were successful at attracting a crowd.
As much as they were challenged with the public performances they were very encouraged by the fact that they were successful in attracting some attention and able to spread the word of God through their performances. In particular one local gentleman and his family were touched and provided each of the youth with handshakes and hugs.
