God's call to Mexico

A year and a half ago it became clear God wanted us in Mexico. He has pointed us specifically to Ajijic, Jalisco, Mexico (closest big city is Guadalajara, about 45 minutes away). Ajijic is a village about 450 years old, located on Lake Chapala. The weather is pleasantly temperate, because we are a mile high. The title of our blog relates to the beautiful view of Lake Chapala from the terraza of the house that God so wonderfully provided. When we finally get there and get a good picture of the sunset from the terraza, we will replace the current one. The picture here now is from a hot springs resort, Monte Coxala, that is a few miles from our home. I took this picture, and it does depict what we expect to see in the way of sunsets.

The purpose of this blog is to keep our family and friends posted on what God is doing in our lives. We know that God has plans for us that have nothing to do with retiring, and we are excited to find out what they are. When you start saying "yes" to God, you better buckle your seat belt.
