Feliz Cumpleanos Karina!

Friday night was party night! When we found out last week that it was Karina's birthday we all decided it was time for a fiesta! We went to pick her up at 9pm and she was so excited she said her heart was going crazy! Kelly and I were excited too although also a little unsure about how the night was going to go. No need to worry though, Erin had invited a few of her friends along, including two who play the guitar and sing beautifully and I mean beautifully! It was such a great night, eating, drinking, singing and listening to Mexican music. It was even greater knowing that it is just a taste of things to come, a glimpse into the future of community life here in Reynosa. I may or not be part of that future but it's wonderful to be part of the beginning of it now. To pray into, and dream about a place that doesn't exist physically yet but at the same time is very real and alive in so many people's hearts and in the heart of God.
