FELIZ NAVIDAD TEC PAN

``Hi! Daddy, I miss you and love you!``

There was a wedding on the grounds at the restaurant
and Greg took the opportunity to have his picture taken
with the bride....

Brian it is all in the hips.....

Jose`s family......

Timiteo`s family...


Eduardo`s family

Isais`fiance and his mother....

Max`s family...

Bartollo's family.....

No this is not a sale at Sears...
We had brought 100 pairs of flip flops, 69 pairs of shoes
and lots of knitted hats.....
The ladies were very excited as they outfitted their kids.

One of the moms thanking us for coming, for being there
for their husbands and for the Christmas party.....






Christmas in November....

Bartolo, one of the farm workers, on vacation back home
sharing about his faith and how the Bakerview Spanish Church
has helped him grow in his faith and helped him not be so lonely.


Grandpa Walter doing some babysitting......




We have been working with the migrant workers that
attend the Bakerview Spanish Church since February.
Seven of the families, who have husbands working in the Fraser
Valley, live in the area that we work in Guatemala.
We visited the seven families in May and thought an early Christmas
party in November would be special for them.
We reserved space for 60 people at La Hacienda restaurant
in Tec Pan and inivited all of the families...7 moms, 38 kids, one
gal engaged to a migrant worker and his mom....what a blast!
They all came in their best attire and we were greeted with beautiful smiles
and hugs. Probably none of these people had ever been to a resturant
before.

Beautiful moments caught on film....so thankful for all of you that went either for your first time or your ? time! And thankful for the great pictures!
Makes me wish to be there and be able to do it all over again.
Praying that God keeps you all safe and healthy.....and that His love will be felt by many through all of you.
