Retreat

First Team Retreat
We just got back from our first team retreat. We had a wonderful time learning to know the other members of the team, relax, worship together, eat wonderful food, and play together. We met at a Benedictine Monastary just outside of Cuernavaca. There are a number of other children on the team, so Isaiah and Micah had lots of fun too.

Regarding the budget - prayers are appreciated! We spent quite awhile talking about where and what we could cut out. Since the program in Guerrero (where we will be) is an MCC program, there are significant program costs. It was hard for me to talk about cutting material costs (pipes for drip irrigation, molds for dry latrines, money for workshops...etc) when everything plays a key role in the work that can be done there. So please keep the MCC Mexico team in your prayers.
