Greeting from Mexico!
There is a lot going on in the world as I write!  The World Cup of Soccer started a few days ago.  The first game of the tournament was between Mexico and South Africa and since soccer is such a big deal here they even showed the game for the first two hours of the school day [...]

Happy Mother’s Day!
Mexico Fact: Mother’s Day in Mexico is always the 10th of May no matter what day it falls on.  I thank the Lord for my (Greg’s) mom and for how He has used her to shape and bless my life and the lives of countless others so richly.  Happy Mother’s Day Mom!  But God also [...]
