Trip July 2009

Teatro Juarez en el centro




Rick and I just returned from a great (but short) trip to Guanajuato. We arrived Saturday, July 4th and spent some time with the Ramirez family. Sunday worship was nice, with a good attendance and an excellent sermon by brother Raciel. Sunday after worship we had a mini-clinic for vision needs and saw about 40-50 people.
Monday, we had a clinic in Dolores Hidalgo and saw just over 200 people. Some of the church members there made us an excellent lunch,too. Please pray for the work there in DH.

Tuesday, we went to San Luis de la Paz - a new stop for the rolling vision clinic. That congregation is only about 11 months old, but Martin and Rut are doing an excellent job there. We saw about 110 people- not bad for a first clinic. Lunch and fellowship were great.

Wednesday we saw about 170 people in Guanajuato city. We stopped a few minutes for pizza and finished around 4:30pm.

All-in-all we had a great trip. The Rameriz family seems to be in good spirits and the church seems to be doing well (some people come and go, but I think that is to be expected in any church - it is very difficult to convince people to change life-long ways of doing things.)
Stay tuned for the next trip (time TBD) and think about going!!
