Sorry about the lack of updates, I’m going
to try to be better about them the last 7 weeks of the race! (Thats right, just
7 more weeks until this incredible incredible chapter closes and the next
begins.)

We are staying in Palenque,Mexico at a
Bible institute with our contact Eliezar. He is a great man who used to live in
the States, but moved back to Mexico to open the Bible school. It is really
hot, and we have invented the fan-tent to help with heat and bugs!

We are also
with Banah, another team for this month,
which has been a ton of fun. Between Clay and Banah we have 9 old
teammates together, which is great. I’m loving to see Mark again everyday and
it is great to see all of Alethia together again.
