Mentors...


These are were are mentors, Rich & Anita Yoder. They looked after us while we were in cross training.  Please pray for them as they continue to work within ECC. 

Some pictures..




This is just a few pictures from our time training in the states!

thank you...

Thank you so much for your prayers over this last month, as we have been in the states we ask that you continue to pray for us as we settle back into Mexico! Ben has not been well from a double ear infection since a few days before we left.  Due to some confusion we did not see the doctor today, but are going tomorrow.  Please pray that we will get it sorted easily and Ben will be feeling better soon!

Speaking at OMS




Each person was asked to speak about themselves at cross training, and explain to the group who they were, and a little about what we are going to do on our fields.  We spoke on the last day.  I have included photos of us speaking and of the whole group, including those who had the job of teaching us!

Ben...

I have included this video of Ben crawling.  He took off while we were in cross training! Nothing is safe now and in Mexico, where it is all tiles, I have a feeling that there are going to be a few bumps and bruises along the way!

Double ear infection..


Our first week here was hard as Ben started to get up during the night and wasn't taking his naps we weren't sure what was wrong so we took him to the doctors.  A double ear infection, he is now much better and is back to sleeping all night! Please pray for all the kids here over this next week for there health.  

I've had enough...


Well that isn't the whole truth, this is a picture of Melvin (Kelly) He is one of the people doing cross training we have know his wife sharon for a long time. He had a sore back so as a result was more comfortable on the floor but on it looks like he is on strike from the class! Please pray for his back and indeed the health of everyone taking part!

Cross training....




These three weeks are all about learning! We have been here two weeks now and we have been in class from 8am to 5 pm most days.  Ben is being looked after each day and is enjoying his time with the other kids. There are 18 of us in total, and 9 of whom are going to Mexico! We have been doing everything from team building exercises to sharing times. So far so good here are a few pictures we have taken along the way...
