The house is more that I imagined you could build in 3 days. I'm so proud of you all and so excited for the family that you are building it for! I would love to see their faces when they get to move in, whew, too wonderful!! Meg, I'm so proud especially of you and praying that this experience will leave a lasting, forever impression on your heart! Enjoy every last minute of your time left. Wishing you all a safe and speedy trip home (I heard that the bus ride was especially long!) Jason, don't worry, all is well at home, they're all safe, just missing YOU! Take care, love and prayers, Shirley Hi to all!

Dad and Lisa would be equally proud of you!!! My heart is overwhelmed as I think of all of you in Mexico... you are being the change... and as you all drive away from your loved Mexican home in the next few days, I just want to challenge you to see that this can be done here... in your loved Canadian homes. I am praying for each of you specially, that when God speaks to your heart... and you know that He will, that you would not harden your hearts, (Heb. 3:7,8) but allow His voice to renew and shape you. Love you all... especially you Jason... we miss you at home... but we're so proud of you!! Bon Firsts… way to go Megs for representing! Dad and Lisa would be equally proud of you!!!
