Our final working day here in Mexico has come to an end and it has been bittersweet for all of us.  We have made new friends and formed new relationships which we will never forget.  While we know that we will be in their prayers and them in ours, it’s still very hard to think of us not being together again for awhile.  Many things happened today including additional work on the new classrooms, the finishing and dedication of the library and, of course, lots of food!  (Although we were finally able to turn the tables on our friends and serve and feed them for dinner this evening thanks to all the wonderful food that Shar made for us–Ramon asked us if it was “revenge” for all the times they kept asking us if we wanted more!)  Some of us even got a chance to work on our tans some more (ask Justin about his tan lines!) We will spend our last few hours in Mexico tomorrow morning again welcoming the children for the usual Saturday breakfast that Templo Belen provides and then it will be saying our goodbyes once again before we head off to the airport.  We miss all of you back home and look forward to seeing you all soon.
