The celebration in Puebla was two-fold. We were celebrating Puebla Bible Seminary's 50th anniversary as well as what God is doing through FAMEX (the missions agency here in Mexico). We had quite a number of workshops - I wanted to go to ALL of them, but just got in on three! Jack O'Brien spoke on the History of missions and it was excellent and very enlightening. It was SO NICE to see Jack and Julie again!
René Zapata preached twice and both times it was just what we needed! What a challenge, not just to the grads, but to all of us! I've known René for many many years. He's an incredible speaker and writer and God continues using him greatly.
Terry Vanderwerf did an incredible job leading the orchestra and Coro Unido (United Choir). This choir, which will grow to over 200 voices by Christmas, will perform the Christmas Program that mesmerizes the city of Puebla almost every Christmas.
Becky (Baron) Muñoz sang for us during the Cena de Gala. She has a beautiful voice and wonderful presence. She also, along with two other ladies, led one of the workshops which I enjoyed thoroughly.
The worship team (up on the platform) did a beautiful job leading us in worship songs all weekend. What incredible musicians! We enjoyed the orchestra at the Cena de Gala as well as at graduation. There was also a student orchestra at the graduation, which did a beautiful job, all led by Terry and one of his students (at least I'm assuming he's a student of Terry's!).
