I can't figure out how to place the photos in a different location, but I thought I would just give you a taste of the things I have seen so far in the beautiful city of Queretaro.
So I have kind of been avoiding blogging for a while because it's been a little rough adjusting to Queretaro. I have felt a little lonely and homesick and at times quite useless. Like I said before, my ministry here is mostly relational, which means that I don't always have a task to do, which is hard for me. I talked with the pastor's wife Saturday and she gave me a little insight that I came in kind of a hard time, and hopefully God can use me to do a "healing work" in the hearts of some people here who have been hurt. God has been teaching that my chief job here in Mexico is to love him and become a woman of righteousness and grace after his own heart.
I am starting this week with a good attitude, and not letting Satan invade my thoughts and discourage me. Yesterday church was great, we had a potluck and in the evening I went to an amazing traditional Mexican dance show with 2 of the high school girls. I feel like I am finally jumping into the relationship building, and I have a few other "hang out" times scheduled for later in the week.
please pray:
I won't be homesick
I can build awesome relationships with the high school girls and church staff
I will get along with my host family, they will enjoy having me here, and I can encourage them.
God will be glorified!
