Busyness


The last couple weeks has been full of fun things- my boss/mentor/other dad here in Mexico and his family got back from a month in Canada; several other YWAM staff and I set up a booth at a big youth festival here in Tijuana and connect with some young people; and I attended my first pro sporting event- park seats at the Padres/Astros baseball game in San Diego! The number of girls living in our house near to the new property has grown from 3 to 7 in the last 2 weeks. Planning for the DTS seems to be going well; it's fun now to have more of the DTS staff here from their respective homes and be able to share tasks and prayers with them. July 20-22 we'll have our DTS staff "retreat" here at the base- team building, getting to know each other, praying together for students and outreach, and going over practical info for the DTS. Thanks for keeping the DTS planning in your prayers! Check out the pics!
