This is what I wrote to friends and family last night!
Cory ison a week long missions trip toOaxaca in the Heart of Mexico. *He almost didn't get to go as he got hisPassport thesame afternoon they had to leave! We prayed aboutit and weren't tooworried. If God wanted him to go He would provide that Passportjust in time, which He did!
Cory wentwith8 other men (3 arehigh schoolers) from our church family.They leftTuesday evening. They drove to Denver, had a night flight to Houston and then got to Oaxaco around 10am Wed morning.I talked to Cory3 times that first night(while they were still in the States) and he said they were all pretty tired from being up all night but all doing well.

Their purpose is to help a group of believers with a building project. Cory called me Wed. night and reported they made it there and were all doing well! He said all of them rode in the back of a pickup from the airport and then got to eat breakfast and see a few sights. It sounds like they were all working on their sunburns by the end of the first day! 19 They started the "real work" today (Thurs). Cory said the Oaxaco people are amazing and he can already tell that he is going to come home so very blessed from this awesome opportunity!

I am so thankful these awesome men from our church got to go! I am praying for them to have a perfect time and for God to use them for His purpose down there in Mexico! I also pray for them to come home refreshed and renewed in their faith! This trip wasn't "just for the Oaxaco people."
