James and I arrived safely in Villahermosa. We had easy flights and customs was a breeze. For some reason the customs agent said to me: "You've got a green light come over here. Welcome to Mexico!" James wasn't so lucky, but the search of his luggage went quickly.
It is hot and muggy! And the cockroaches are big and fast! :-)
Team motto: Flexibility, flexibility, flexibility! We've already had to make changes from our original plan however we believe it will work out even better! Participants: all you need to do is arrive in Mexico and we'll get you to your home away from home.
Today the refrigerator, dry goods, and mattresses were bought and delivered to Plan de Ayala. Tomorrow we will get the perishable foods and head out to get our base camp ready for you.
Take time to meet the people around you as you travel. James and I met a group from Mason, Texas who are doing a mission trip south of Palenque. They built a structure "at the end of the road" that they use as a literacy center. Their enthusiasm was contagious!
May God bless you with traveling mercies as you head south,
Lynda

It is good to read your welcoming reports of how you have prepared the way for the team of workers to arrive! Our son flew out of Portland yesterday to meet you. A lot of snow started falling here that afternoon. We pray his flights went well despite the heightened airport security, holiday traffic, and rushed connection in Houston. Our prayers and praise are with all of you as you serve the Lord in Palenque. Special greetings to those of you from AK; I worshiped in Wasilla when I visited our friends the Merrills there in 2003. It is a small world for our great God!
