The Office

Location: Pharr, Texas.

Okay, so this isn't Dunder Mifflin, but it's a nice little field trip for me. I've been busy helping out around CHI office this morning, performing misc. duties. (I abreviated because I don't think that I can spell the whole word.) Not much new going on here. Tomorrow there will be a birthday party for some of the children at the home. I think that we're all going to some kind of water park in Reynosa. It should be a fun outing for the kids. I'm excitedly awaiting the arrival of the group from REJOICE! You all will be here on Sunday. It looks like it will be a busy week, but I think that we can get a lot accomplished.

My friends from North Carolina left yesterday! Marcus, Chrissy, Seth, Samuel, Brad, Ann-Marie, Brandon, Miller, and my little buddy Jackson! They are traveling today and I pray for a safe journey. These two families were so kind and welcoming to me. It shouldn't surprise anyone that I cried. I'm sure that our paths will cross again in the future. Especially know that we have this common thread of Children's Haven.

Thanks to those of you who have been sending my letters! I love hearing from you, it is so comforting to read your "voices". I'll do my best to send replys... I sent some out this morning actually. I will try to be a good pen-pal.

Adios!

Eliza,
Hello from NC! We all miss you so much already. I know you must be very excited and busy now that the group from your home church is there. How I wish we could have met your Mom and brother. Please tell them hello from us anyway.

What fun we had telling Mexico stories to our friends at church this morning. Marcus said that he had a hard time not waiting to be translated!

Unfortunately we still have to keep our plans quiet until Brad talks to his boss. I cannot wait to really share our story.

Well, I look forward to hearing more about your adventures and I will keep you posted on ours here.
We all feel soo blessed to have gotten to know you and we pray that the Lord continues the good work that He has begun in you. You are a wonderful reflection of the the love of Jesus.

God Bless You,
Ann-Marie and the Boyles Gang
