Write us letters!

Hello,
One great way for you to be involved in this trip is to encourage those of us going. And, one really neat way to do that is to write us letters!

Because mail takes too long to get to where we will be we started a system years ago where people write the letters now and turn them in before we go. You can write to anyone on the team and as many letters as you like. Don't forget to put who the letter is to on the envelope of course. Then, bring your letters in to me by July 15th.

We take them with us so each day we can hand some mail out. We even setup a "mailbox". We tend to spread the letters out anyway but you can write a specific day you want someone to receive it on the envelope.

This is an exciting and wonderful way for our team to be encouraged so please spread the word and gather some mail for us!

Thanks,
Josh Harris

Team set, tickets bought...

Howdy,

I wanted to update everyone on a few exciting things. We have a final list of who is going to Mexico this year on the team and we were also able to buy plane tickets!

The team this year is:
Caleb George, Zach Rigel, Brett Ware, Johnny Bastian, Kelso Smullin, Angie Holmgren, Ann Rivera, Kate Walter, Ally Walter, Allyssa Yates with college students Josh Bastian and Kaley Yates. Myself and Dawn Rigel will be the adults rounding out the numbers. All total there will be 14 of us going this year.

We ask that you be praying for this team! Pray for unity, health, safety, effectiveness, energy, and joy!

We have already purchased our Airplane tickets. They were almost $300 more than last year and we have to fly out of Miami, but we are still glad we got them. Be praying for safe travel and for God to provide enough money for us to eat now. :)

It's almost here...
