Hanging Out With Our Team


9:06 AM – We are pulling out from Italian Coffee Company on the way to Teotihuacan after Neil gives us some of its back ground history.

9:42 – Family time in the van – Diana is reading us a chapter from the life of Rachel Saint.

10:56 – Listening to Casting Crowns – “…reckless abandon wrapped in common sense – Deep water faith in the shallow end and we are caught in the middle – With eyes wide open to the differences, the God we want and the God who is..”

11:37 – Willie insists that I say that on our arrival Diana jumps out of the car to give out homemade cookie squares to everyone. Juan Carlos goes on record that they were delicious.

11:49 – The first stop upon arrival – bathrooms.

12:19 PM – Before I know what’s happening Cheryl and I encounter some new agers blindly “feeling” their way along the path to spiritual energy.

2:11 – With the sweltering heat we stop for a water break.

2:20 – The ascent to the top of the pyramid of the sun begins.

2:27 – 247 steps later and about 200 feet Daniel, Maria and I summit.

2:38 – With worshipers all around us we join together to pray a prayer of rejection of the gods and offer a prayer of worship to the Lord of lords and King of kings.

3:33 – I call “dibs” on the first shower tonight.

3:57 – Stopped at McCoy’s for dinner (sorry Hatfield’s) and were serenaded by the accordion and guitar as we eat enchiladas and tacos.

6:22 – We are embroiled in an intense game of Battleship on paper. Christina comes in the winner after sinking my battleship and Juan Carlos’s submarine on the same shot.

7:40 – We cap off the day with a family tradition, stopping for ice cream when we travel more than 3 hours.

    sorry i missed the day, bro, but Spanish study held me captive. thanks for taking good care of two of 'treasures', both Dawn and Kara enjoyed spending time with your family and the rest of the team. as for the 'energy seekers' reminds me of Matt 15:14 Let them alone: they be blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind lead the blind, both shall fall into the ditch. They WILL find Him if they seek Him with ALL their heart.....

    amazing structures, used for unfortunate purposes. dan and i visited some when we were in mexico together. it's sad to see the ongoing idolatry by other visitors, isn't it? glad you were there as a team to pray to our great God and King!
