Mexico Mission- Leaving Tlancualpican

Hello and Adios!
We spent our last day at the Tree of Life Center finishing several projects including lining a trail with gravel and rocks. Look for Landon and Lindsay Schott's house to get new tile on the walls as they both learned new skills here in Tlancualpican. One of the projects we worked on was to tile several walls on the new dormitories which are being constructed on the property. Another job was to lay "pavers" or stones around the exterior, much like octagon shaped brick cobblestones which not only are functional, but add to the decor of the straw bale building.

We joined with the many workers at the center for a pizza party. Talk about good, let's just say no one has lost any weight on this trip as the cooking staff is exceptional. We finished with an outdoor service reflecting on the beauty of this wonderful place.

I mentioned earlier that during the service Thursday night, many members of the team performed with some local church members a drama which folks who attend Mercy Street might be familiar with. It's a short skit, only about five minutes in length. I have been able to upload it on to YouTube, so here's the link:

So Adios from Puebla, as we head home to Houston tomorrow.
