Recap of September

Well another month is almost over. Can't believe in a little over 3 months 2011 will be over and here comes 2012!
This month started in victory! A group of 10 and 2 children travel to Durango (12 hours south) in the churches van. Our mission was to give children that went to school backpacks and a little sugar too(candy bags). We went to a total of 3 different churches and 5 different church service in 3 days. Everyone that went on the trip was totally blessed to be able to go on this trip. We also were able to stop at two random places. First was a plaza(park) and gave over 60 backpacks and over 80 candy bags(didn't have enough backpacks to give out). We also stop at a basudero(a place were everyone throw their trash), their 5 backpacks were given out to this children that were cleaning an area because they said that was were they were going to live with their parents. I thank God that I and my family were able to go, everyone on the trip learn something and that included myself. I learned that I might not be able to provide for my daugthers as much as I would love to but at least I am present. This is why I say this. At one of the churches that we went to there was 2 boys around 8 or 9 years old. We were talking and all of the sudden one of them saids "I can't play with him(the other boy), because last time he told me he wanted to play boyfriends and my parents hit me". After this boy left we talked to the other one and he said that his mom and dad work all the time and that he is always left alone with his older brother. My mom and I were in awe of what we had just heard, and at that point I thank God that even thought I might not be able to provide money wise to my daughters but I was present in their lives and believe me, will always be too. In a few days I will post some pictures of the trip.
Also would like to add that on September 26 my parents celebrated their 29th anniversary. Continue to pray for them. That even thought there are many things to do, that they don't forget about each other. Happy Anniversary Ma y Daddy!!! 29 is not so much...its still young... I mean.... you know what I mean. I love you both!
