Wow has it been a crazy couple of days.
RECAP.
We took the college team to the zipline in Managua for their tourist day on Friday. Everyone had a great time :). I'm seriously going to miss them. On the way back to the start of the line you have to ride in a truck. We rocked it Nica style with like 12 of us in the back. Awesome...painful, but awesome. Saying goodbye is always difficult and saying bye to Chris and Big was obviously hard because they'd been with us for 6 weeks. We will greatly miss y'all!
Yesterday we headed back to Managua to pick up the next team. Big- we went to PriceMart before picking up the team and bought an Apple Cake in your honor! Jorge and his family came up from Leon, Dona Fide and Don Omar's youngest boy. It was great to get to see them :) They're a beautiful fam.
The new team's from Cokesbury Methodist in Florida. I'm excited to work with them. They seem like a great group. Today we all went to church and had a wonderful lunch back here at the team house. We're about to take them on a little tour of Matagalpa around the park and the Cathedral. However, we've got to get back before too late because tomorrow is day of the revolution for Nica and lots of festivities have already begun. It could get crazy.
I hope that all of you at home are having a wonderful day. You're all in our prayers. We've got 3 more weeks here and I am taking in every moment and counting them as such blessings in my life.
LOVE.
M.

Thank you for the update! Everyone here was buzzing about the time they had in Nica over the last few weeks. Many of the team members joined together at Monterrey to reminince and share pics on the camera. We miss you so much and know that God has many things for you and Spencer over the next few weeks. We pray for your work and health as you continue to do God's work there and come back home to continue to do His work here.
