Last night we ladies of the Abundant Life Bible Church got together for fellowship and a beautiful message from Blanquita Rodriguez. Maybe two of you out there will remember Blanquita - and her brother Alfonzo who is married to Ginny. Blanquita and her husband worked here in San Juan for awhile and are now in Celaya. It was so nice to have Blanquita among us again - we all love her dearly! I didn't get any good pictures, but here are some anyway!
We always sit around in a circle - it's the Mexican way! Two of these ladies are visitors and the one in orange, Guadalupe, told us that she really enjoyed being with us and liked he "convivio". We were glad to hear that!
The baby is Gaby's little boy (she's on the left next to Blanquita), and Ivonne's grandson (she's in the green shirt).
Here's Blanquita. She was great - we wish she could have stayed longer with us! For sure we'll invite her again in the future! She spoke on making wise decisions and gave some good biblical advice.
Food - of COURSE! Tacos de canasta - which are just tortillas folded over filled with beans, cheese or meat, corn on the cob with lemon and chile (field corn, not sweet corn!!), veggies and dip and cookies both provided by, you guessed it, me! Yolanda said, "I don't usually like broccoli, but when you bring it and we put dip on it, I love it." Of course! And of course Ivonne brought her signature snack - coke!
Marta with her adorable granddaughter. And if you think Marta looks too young to be a grandma, you're right! She is! They start grandmothering very early in Mexico! She has two little granddaughters.
