The End

This is officially the last post on this blog. I have decided to close this blog. It's something I've needed to do for quite awhile, but didn't realize it until a friend suggested it this weekend at church retreat. As soon as he said it I immediately felt the truth deep in my heart.

I haven't been able to post all the incredible pictures from our last week in Olinala due to technical issues with our computer. I've decided to move on. Our ending time in Mexico was very difficult with regards to MCC. Our ending time with our friends in Olinala and our friends in the communities was an incredible gift, and I am grateful to MCC for the opportunity to live and love in that part of the mountains in Guerrero, Mexico.

I'll close with a quote (author unknown to me) a friend sent the other day.

"There is no healing without help.
There is no power as potent as possibility.
There is no transformation without truth.
There is no change without vulnerability.
There is no beauty without struggle.
There is no statement like your life.
There is no end.
There are only beginnings."

Here's to a new beginning.

Ever Again?

Wow I haven't blogged for a really long time. I wonder if I ever will again. I haven't even posted the incredible pictures from our last week in Olinala, back in November. Sometimes it feels like yesterday and sometimes it feels like the 4 months it really is. I can look at these pictures without crying now. But when I do look at them I ever more determined to go back and visit this summer.
