Farm, Village, and Onyx Factory

This a a compilation of a few different events that have taken place in the past two weeks.  The first set of pictures takes place at a local horse ranch that Evie's class went to for a field trip.  She was able to ride a horse, pet a bunny, milk a cow and press the fat out of cheese to make it ready to eat.  It was a day of many firsts for her and what fun it was to experience God's wonderful creations around us.

The second set are of our second trip to Tehuacan where we revisited the village where the bio-digester was built.  We were not able to get the stove lit, because of the lack of pressure to push the gas through.  Hopefully the next trip we will be able to see the fruits of their labor.  While we were in the village, Aaron was able to teach from the book of Acts about the early church to the believers there during their Saturday night service.  He will have another opportunity in a few weeks.

The third set is of a day trip we took to Tecali.  Tecali is a city about an hour from us that is famous for its Onyx and Marble crafts that are cut from the local mines around that area.  We went with a volunteer team to help translate for them.  On this trip, we were able to take a tour through the factory to see how they craft some of their pieces, of which we took a couple of pictures.  It was a great day for our family and the volunteers.
