Hey Wildwood Family!
Well, we made re-entry back into the USA from our trip down to Mexico. It was a wonderful opportunity to speak some biblical encouragement to many of the missionaries who serve faithfully in Mexico.
We got some true Mexican experiences while there. One was experiencing the notorious Arco Norte (Northern Arc) highway. It is a four-lane highway that bypasses around the north of Mexico City. It is known for frequent and significant car/truck wrecks. We were traveling from Amealco (where Jennifer and Zac serve) to Puebla, normally a four-hour drive. Well, indeed, there was a big wreck ahead of us and it shut down the highway. We sat still for 2.5 hours…dead still. The “four-hour” trip took us eight hours! Not unusual in Mexico!
It was also encouraging to meet with the leaders (and their wives) of the church that Jen and Zac are helping to plant. They expressed encouragement in meeting with us, although all communication had to go through either Jennifer or Zac via translation.
The hard part of our trip was having to miss Wildwood’s picnic.
We hope many of you have experienced some refreshment from fall break. Some great opportunities loom ahead at Wildwood. The Father-Son and Father-Daughter campouts are soon. Go to wildwoodchurch.org/campouts for details.
Also, if you’ve ever wanted to attend a seminary class, you can attend a one-day class for free at Wildwood. Email info@wildwoodchurch.org to learn more.
I’m looking forward to starting a four session message series this Sunday, entitled The Bible and Your Conscience. One doesn’t often hear teaching on this subject. I hope to see you then as we delve into this fascinating topic!
See you Sunday!
