I went to Whittier for a day last weekend and say my extended family, church family, YMCA family, and even my mama flew down from Idaho for a surprise Christmas gift. I love Whittier and the support this city has shared with me when I was living their 3 years ago and how everyone is continuing to support me and my endeavours as a missionary in Valle de Guadalupe, Mexico at Rancho Sordo Mudo (www.ranchosordomudo.org). My day trip was jammed packed with the Whittier Christmas Parade, breakfast with Papa and my mom, Aunt Terry's 4th annual Christmas Cookie Party, Inouye Family, Caver Family, Edmaru Street. It was such a joy to have time to share with my other home away from home and let everyone know that I am well and God's work is fruitful at Rancho Sordo Mudo.
May you all be blessed this Christmas as you spend time with your families and enjoying some of your favorite traditions. Thank you everyone for all of your continued support. A special thanks for the Plymouth Whittier Handbell Choir, who I played with (LOW DING ZONE for 2 years) for preparing gifts for all of the staff, as well as the YMCA Spin class, who I would spin with at 6am Mon-Wed-Friday...you all have made myself and all of the staff feel very loved and appreciated. We are truly blessed for your friendship and support. Thanks for thinking about us all down here in Mexico. I am so happy to share this experience with you all and I look forward to hearing more from you this year and next year!
