Veronica's Wedding in Lachiguiri

In the middle of April, God provided a buddy pass so i was able to fly down to Lachiguiri for a couple of events and also to help with Israel and Virginia's daughter,Veronica wedding that took place on the 3rd of May 2014.

First when I got to my house, I had time alone to go through many of my personal items and pack them away so it would be easier for Garett and his family to have space when they are in Lachiguiri.

After they arrived we headed to a couple of the missions deeper in the mountains for a couple of reunions celebrating their missions. One was held in La Loma Esperanza and the other was close to there. It was  so good to see so many friends in each area. The special speaker in La Loma Esperanza was an old friend, Alfredo from Vera Cruz Mexico.

Then we were back in Lachiguiri for Veronica's wedding.

While there I started making plans to return about October so that I can hire speakers to help us record at least all of the Book of Luke. There are some from the village who want to help with this project. When we were way back in the villages for the reunions I was told there are still many people who do not speak any Spanish and need to be able to hear the scripture in their language.  I am looking forward to this time there.

Be in prayer with us for this project. I originally went to Mexico to translate the scriptures into the Lachiguiri Zapotec. There is a lot of details to be worked out.
