Things seem to be going pretty well, and we&#8217;re meeting lots of new friends, getting together with some old friends and learning a lot.  There are several people that we&#8217;ve been able to see that we met in Mexico 9 years ago, so that&#8217;s been really fun.<\/p>\n<p>Last week was a lot of interviews, but this week is more learning.  Learning about CAM, learning generally about ministry, so that should be good.  Of course I&#8217;m not really a good one for sitting on a chair in meetings, but as long as I&#8217;m learning something it&#8217;s worth it!<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;d appreciate your continued prayers as we look ahead and continue to gather information.  We&#8217;re hoping to get home and have a little more input from our church before we make too many decisions, but we need to try to ask the right questions in the mean time.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve been introduced to some great Texas eatin&#8217;, but a highlight was going to an authentic Mexican restaurant last week &#8212; WOW &#8212; Taco al pastor and a manzana to drink.  Yum.  Wish I could bring the food back to Calgary, but I don&#8217;t think it would survive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone!
