Easter Postcard from Mexico

Our dear friends,

Greetings from Mexico! It's been a super start to the semester, with a good mixture of "seasoned professional" student workers at Playa Coyote, and a number of "newbies" who have quickly got the hang of things. This semester we have enough workers to start from 6:00am and go through until 10pm again, and we have more customers than ever, so the coffee and orange juice is flowing freely. Thank you for your prayers, and please continue to pray for good conversations and a strong witness to our community of the love of Jesus.

Shelley is keeping busy being involved in two modules of Teacher Training this semester, as well as studying the Bible with Esther, one of the girls renting with us. At present we have four students renting with us - Sandy, Esther, Monserrat and Martin and another student, Juan, sleeps over twice a week to help us open the café in the mornings too. So we have a pretty full house, and full days as well.

We have had one week off now for Easter; most of the students went to the Compa National Camp, and we've had some calmer days of rest and re-organization. Tom and Luis will be going to a kids' church camp next week as well.

We wish you a happy Easter, filled not with chocolate, but with opportunities to remember and share about our Lord Jesus. Keep fighting the good fight.

Love
Robert, Shelley, Tom and Luis Chapman
