It is the day after Thanksgiving, and here I am in Mexico...a world that is so different from the one that have known. In ways I am still adjusting to life here...I guess the transistion part takes longer than I thought...

Yesterday, I was hit with a reality check...I live here, here in Mexico. Not that I didn't know it before, but it really set in. What made me realize it...well I am here and my family is Cali, yesterday was Thanksgiving and we were apart.
One thing I am thankful for is that we were able to have our own Thanksgiving celebration here. We are so blessed to have a director who realizes the importance of Thanksgiving to us Americans, and wanted us to celebrate Thanksgiving with them.

I am truly grateful to be here in Mexico, even though it is hard at times especially around the Holidays. I am thankful for my YWAM family and for the friends that I have made here. Also I am thankful for all of you back at home. To my family and friends in the USA - I love you all and blessed to have you in my life!
