Of course, by God's grace, that won't be the case next year, as we expect to have a mission (or two!) going by then in León and will hold services there. But this year, we will continue worshiping in homes as I mentioned before.
That doesn't mean we're at a loss for things to do. Mike is currently setting up his office and finding a place to rent for English classes.
My to-do list includes unpacking boxes and setting up our house (and eventually tackling the laundry). Note my faithful helpers -
Trinity is having extra devotion time these days. Since we don't have a Sunday School, we are using this week to teach her Bible stories of Jesus' passion and resurrection. She's also learning the hymn "I know that my Redeemer Lives." Sleepy Eye, are you singing this on Sunday? If so, Trinity will sing along!
And even though we won't be having a Spanish service in León for Easter, there will be many other Lutheran congregations in Mexico celebrating Jesus' resurrection. Next week I'll post pictures of Easter activities from some of our other congregations here.

God's blessings on your English worship services! We wont be worshiping in Spanish either. ;) Trinity and Noelle have grown so much! Can't wait to see all of you in a little over a week! Rejoicing in the Savior's victory-Julia
Thanks Julia, and hope the rest of your stay and travels go well. Hasta pronto!
Looks like you're having lots of success and fun in your move, almost like you're professionals! As one of the future English teachers for next year, I hope that everything goes well for you so that when we finally get there we'll be able to work hand in hand in whatever God has planned our way. Feliz Pascua!
Thanks for the note and we look forward to working with you too! I think you'll like Leon, it's a pretty city and full of opportunity. We're itching to get a church started here, and you'll be an important tool in carrying out that plan.
