On our way to Morelia



We have been in Mexico for less than 24 hours; currently we are waiting at a bus station in Guadalajara for the Calvary group to join us so that we can finish our journey to Morelia. The trip has been fairly uneventful so far, but there are a few highlights: we lost a couple bottles of body spray to airport security, but suffered no additional seizures or searches. We met a guy on our flight from Chicago to Dallas who works with the Jesus People and had been at Cornerstone and was headed back home. We had a minor issue with our hotel reservation last night, but the concierge was kind enough to give us our rooms and it was worked out this morning. God blessed us with the opportunity to meet Heber at the airport, who is the cousin of one of our translators in Morelia. He helped us reach our hotel, get dinner, work out the reservation issue, do some sightseeing around Guadalajara today, and get our group and Calvary to the bus station.

This will be our third late night in a row as we have been traveling: getting dinner and settled in at Chicago, a late arrival and hotel check-in at Guadalajara, and tonight the Calvary team will be joining us shortly for a 7:30pm bus to Morelia… which should put us into Morelia around 11:00pm. We have been able to get some rest in the mornings so far, but our clubs begin tomorrow, so please pray for good rest for us on the bus and tonight. We have enjoyed the trip, but we are tired of travelling and ready to arrive and begin ministry!
