Queretero


This month we had the opportunity to visit Marcia's sister Julie in Queretero, Mexico. We (Scott and Marcia) were in Mexico City for our annual business meetings and took a few days of vacation afterwards. Queretero is a colonial city with historical significance for Mexico.




The cathedrals, parks, and acuaduct are awesome!






Since we were there in early November there were still a few decorations from Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebrated on November 1 and 2.



We also saw Guanajuato, a colonial mining city, hitting all the tourist spots except the mummy museum.

Give Thanks

We are thankful for all of the blessings we have received this year. This year Marcia's parents are here to spend Thanksgiving with us. On Thursday we invited Pastor Armando and his family over for a traditional turkey dinner. We shared the meaning and history of Thanksgiving and then each took a turn giving thanks for blessings they had received this year. In the afternoon James, Barbarita, Joshua, and a friend came over to help us with some of the leftovers! On Friday we celebrated again with friends in San Diego. We have one more big dinner this weekend, a potluck at church on Sunday!

We are thankful for the many friends who pray for us and support our ministry. You are a blessing!
