Church Picnic

On Sunday, we took the church members on an outing to a park not far away. We had a picnic and our church service there. We had a great time together. There were over 30 who went. Enjoy the pictures.

We took our Trooper, plus this pick-up.



Building the two fires



Making chirmol
(tomatoes/onion/cilantro)

Cooking the meat (using their hands instead of utensils).


Some people rested while the food was cooking!

Others enjoyed a snack.

Still others played soccer,

or relaxed by the pool
(It was too cold to swim.)

Time to eat!

The menu: beef, rice, refried beans, chirmol and of course the ever-present tortillas!


After lunch we had our church service, then there was one last game of soccer.


We even had a pretty good, barefooted goalie! She only allowed one goal.

We piled back into our cars and headed back to Patzun.
(You can't see him, but there was a little 80 yr. old man standing in the
back of the pick-up!)

The moment i saw the first picture, iknew it had to be church. The church is a place of togetherness and our tool of evangelism is much needed.I am a christain, it's my identity everywhere i go. Congrats on a successful ''togetherness'', that is, picnic and please let the true love of God be in you towards these children.
