Horizonte

Here is a lovely picture of all the adults and young people (missing the majority of the kids who were in class still) last sunday! I am guessing there are about 200 people in the picture... I know we have 180 chairs (I set help them up every saturday!), and they were all full so some staff members stood during the service... then we add some kids who left class for the picture...

And we're all decked out in the sanctuary for Independence Day - This Saturday the 16th of September. Actually, the celebrating starts Friday night. I will be at Horizonte, we are having a carnival, along with various traditional Mexican games, and costumes. We hope to leave there by 2am! Then Saturday is picnic day - most families gather together to eat the left-overs of the previous day's feast. I'll be at Edith's house (a Horizonte staff member) with the rest of the church staff and their families.
