Christmas 2017 This month, Daniel had the opportunity to travel to Vizcaino, Baja California, Mexico, with a group from our church. They went to help work on the parsonage at a local church. They were able to accomplish so much in the week that they were there. We are excited for all that they were able to do. We thank God for our congregation’s heart to help others. Just a week after returning from his missions trip, Daniel went to San Martin Peras, Oaxaca, Mexico, to visit another YUGO Ministries family, Raul Castro & Emily Tracy, and their three kids, who are pastoring a church there. Daniel enjoyed the opportunity to visit them and see their ministry and all that God is doing through them. Please pray for Raul and Emily, as they start building a new church building soon. The three kids that are in school at Colegio Santa Marta have had several different events these past couple of months, which has given them a chance to dress up or for us to visit the school. I have enjoyed attending events at the junior high for Yajaira, as well as the elementary school for the boys. Please pray for Yesenia and Adriana as they continue to adjust to the high school, the amount of homework, and the hour drive each way. We are looking forward to having the girls with us for the entire Christmas season this year, instead of just for a week, in order to share with us some more of our family traditions. Luis and Jenny will be with us again, as well. Please consider giving an extra end-of-year gift for our family, to help with all our extra expenses as we continue to get the girls settled in. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your family this year. We hope that you will continue to share our adventures as we begin a new year together. May God give you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! In Christ
