Fine Chinese Cuisine
This is a Chinese food place in the food court at a local mall. As you can see, it’s called Hong Fat Chinese Express. Are you inspired to come and try a little Chinese cuisine here in Ixtapaluca?

Another “Welcome” and “Goodbye” at CAM Canada
 |
Yesterday was the last day for our CAM accountant, Bradley. Not his last day of life (I hope!), just his last day as our accountant!
We can’t possibly put into words how much we’ve appreciated Bradley – and his wife, who has put up with the extra hours of work he’s put in for us! He has done such a great job, and has put a lot into CAM which will be appreciated for years to come.
Thanks Bradley!!!
We would also like to thank the Lord for providing a new accountant! Let me quote from our director’s newsletter to give you a bit of the story:
God’s timing is perfect. For six months I’ve been asking you to pray for a CAM Bookkeeper before Bradley’s resignation would take effect on June 30th. We are thankful for his more than seven years of ministry. Yet the deadline loomed with no one on the horizon. On Saturday, June 11th I hit the send button on my computer to release my newsletter. On Monday, June 13th at 10:00am I received a phone call asking if CAM was looking for a bookkeeper. When I asked Jana how she heard about the position, she mentioned the name of a friend on my mailing list who forwarded my Stand in Awe newsletter. Just one tiny paragraph grabbed his attention to forward to her. Jana has been praying for a "ministry organization" client. In one week we completed interviews in order to present her name to the Board…
So there you go! Welcome, Jana, and thanks for coming to serve!
We would appreciate your prayers for Bradley and his family as they move on from this position, and for Jana as she transitions into it. Bradley will be around for a little while to help answer her questions.
Thank God for accountants! 😉

New Mexico Missionaries!
We would like to give a special welcome to new missionary appointees with CAM International of Canada – Julian and Malu Grymaloski! They were officially recognized this week by the CAM board.
We’re hoping to have Julian and Malu here in Ixtapaluca for a one or two year term – they’re mid-term missionaries at this point, although that could certainly change in the future. Julian is Canadian, and Malu Mexican, so they’ll fit into our multicultural team very well!
We’re looking forward to getting together with the Grymaloskis when we’re in Calgary this fall. And assuming they can get ready to go – we’ll be seeing them here shortly thereafter!
¡Bienvenidos a nuestros nuevos misioneros!
