...it has been record cold here in Pena Blanca, towards the evening we slip on our "sweats" to stay warm, we continue to make lots of relations and friends, Pena Blanca is a very small town with lots of people, and tons of teens, and as we go into planning our prayer is that we will "fit" into the spiritual needs of the youth' we bring to the table a very experienced trio of youngsters that "slow but sure" are gaining the approval of the wonderful people we/they work with and stand with. We are very excited to see what the Lord is going to do here. As I have explained to others, I feel very much like the opening act of the Southwestern "Rodeos" , horse show, barrel race, calf roping and bullriding it was all so grand back in the late 1960's BUT the opening act featured this "retired" grayhound and on the dogs back, in a tiny saddle, mounted securley, was this little monkey dressed in an "cowboy" outfit, hat chaps, the works and this pair would open the Rodeo by doing laps around the arena...well I feel like this monkey hanging on to this speeding animal as I am in control of nothing, and awsome situations unfold before me and all I did was hold on tight...
