We continue to work on Bob's memorial. Notice the flag? something very comon in all Mexico is to show the flag during our independence month ( September)



Bob's grandson (Joshua on right) did a good job with edging

God is good as He alowed me ( Douglas) to celebrate my 40th birthday this past 20 of September

Jesus or " Chucho" for short is one of our two youngest (8 year old) boys. 
Only God knows what will become of Chucho but by the looks of this foto he may be behind an important desk some day 

Two years ago Bob stopped printing and started advertizing the sale of printshop but the economy has not been so good and no one has been intrested, but the first week of September has yeilded a couple of posible buyers. Please pray we are able to sell printing equipment as soon as posible.

"A NEED AND A DREAM"  With so many work around childrens home and the Farm and only Carlos and Me (Douglas) sometimes we dream of having some "HELP" to dig that dich or move that dirt and not have to feel those back-pains. We pray that with the sale of print shop we can make a down payment for a back-ho like this one in the foto that costs around $20,000 dollars.

"BACK TO SCHOOL" this was taken at 6:00 am on the first day of school, some are excited and nervous to return to school but Monica and me (Douglas) where the most happiest to finaly have 8 hours of peace and quiet at home.

"NEW WORKER" this is Carlos Alvarez he is 56 years old but works like a 25 year old, he is now my right-hand man with the know how in woodworking,electricity,electronics,driving,farming,yardwork and basic mecanics he has been very helpfull to us from monday to friday, please pray we can establish a secure income for him and have a garanty he will stay for as long as the Lord wants.

Saturday is a busy day while the 6 older kids attend SCOUTS the 5 younger ones get special childrens Yogga class and then get to watch a couple of kids movies al to themselves.

God is great, as He moved several peoples hearts here in town to help with the purchase of 11 new bed frames that will soon be modified by Carlos to have storage space under each frame, we are now praying for the financial help to buy the rest of the wood needed and maybe even new mattresses.

First week of July was graduation week and that means attending four graduations, the best part is knowing the children are stepping up and with great honor. Here we see Joshua (left) and Fernando (right) playing music for the hole highschool on "Talent Day".

Jonathan (second from left)

Eduardo or Lalo for short is beside his sixth grade teacher as he has graduated from primary and now will move up to secundaria (middle school).

Enrique and Jesus graduated from kindergarden

We still are not able to use the pool since its being used as water storage because of legal well problems but that did not keep kids from getting wet on the first hot summer week vacation.

All of us here at Mexico Christian Childrens Home are very greatfull for your support and prayers, with these big smiles we say "Gracias".

The month of June we celebrated several birthdays here at the home Eleazar 50th (in foto), Max 10th, Joshua Wright 14th and Adrea Wright 12th .  Its always a joy for us to celebrate birthdays here at the home even if its with a simple cake donated by local grocery store because we see that God is good and always provides. 

With your financial help we are able to buy the tools (musical instruments) so the older kids can put to good use there God given talents in learning music..... 

One of the happiest moments here at the home is line-up for dinner.....notice the smiles

Bobs Memorial Tractor

After many days scrapping,picking and high pressure cleaning Bobs 1970 Ford tractor it is almost ready to be parked at its final resting place under a nice kiosk.

Bob's Memorial Tractor

Bob's Memorial Tractor stripped down for restoration.

May is almost over and we have been so busy that the month has blown by fast.  We thank God for his daily protection at everything we have done here at the home.
Work has started on Dads Memorial. After much thought on what to do and where to do it. We are going to make a special place at the entrance of the home where Dads Ford tractor will sit forever under a very nice shaded spot. It will be a few feet from where the ground breaking ceremony was held 40 years ago.
The tractor has been out at the barn but had not been in use since we got the big Massey Fergusson 6 years ago.  It has taken us 2 weeks to get it cleaned up and I will attempt to give it a nice fresh coat of paint and restore it to look just like it was when brand new.  It does run, but needs lots of rubber parts replaced before turning the key.  
We thank you very much for sending your special memorial donations to us, please continue praying for all of us here at the home as we continue trying our best on this mission field without Dad.
