Hey, Jessie here!
It's been a while since I've written on here. I decided to give a little update on what our family has been doing.
In early November, we took a 10 day trip to Mexico. It was awesome! First, we went to a city called Fortin, where we had the WIM Mexico Conference. We were there for about 3 and a half days. I learned a whole lot at the conference, one of which was this.... I really learned to trust in God more and have faith in Him no matter what the circumstances surrounding me are. I started having very bad headaches the second afternoon at the conference. Basically, I had to sleep during all of our free-time at the conference to be able to stay well. I got a headache ever afternoon for about 5 days, extending to our time in Altotonga. During this time, I had to lie down and sleep for it to go away. Whenever I woke up, headache was gone. At first, I really didn't know if it was the medicine or the sleep that was helping me, but later I realized that it was really God who was taking care of me. I haven't had any more headaches since we got back to New Braunfels, so praise God!!!
There is a lot more I could say about the conference; for me it was one of the best ones I've ever been to. We got to meet new people from the church in Fortin, and were able to interact with the local Christian youth group. I was really impacted by the passion that they have to serve God and share Him with others.
After the conference, it was on to Altotonga! It was really cool to see
everyone again and to share with them all the awesome things that have happened since we had last seen them. Overall, it was an awesome trip!
Well, that's all for now and don't forget: God is awesome and does great things!
Jess
