¡Hola a mi familia, amigos, y iglesia! [Hello to my family, friends, and church!]
First of all, Happy Mother´s Day to the best mom in the whole world! I have to say something sentimental, even though every other mother can see this: Thank you, Mom, for all that you do and all that you are to me. I can never say thank you enough. As I get older and spread my wings (i.e.- coming to this country halfway around the world), I am realizing more and more the special connection we share.
On another, less sentimental, note . . .
I hope the computer is still working! : )
And now, a continuation of my week 1 overview. Not only are the smells unusual and the sights are amazing, but the sounds are also incredible!
Our "home-base" is peace itself. (Psalm 46- "Be still and know that I am God.") While similar to a girl´s dormitory (as far as loudness after 11 pm . . .no names mentioned except for room #5), I love the warmth and hospitality of Kairos as well as Buenos Aires.
To break the silence, our team provides the music [of life]. God has given us a bond in Christ as we minister and are ministered to. Please continue to pray for unity.
The language continues to be a barrier for most of us. Mr. Trainer jokingly wished we still had the gift of tongues. But our weakness, our inadequacies cause us to rest on Christ´s strength. He has already used us beyond what we could ask or think. Thank you for your continued support!
Sometime soon I will continue the overview of our missions trip in Buenos Aires.
But now I must press on in our busy, yet relaxing schedule!
Love, Rebekah
This Maranatha missions team is ministering in Argentina from July 28 to August 18, 2010.

Rebekah,
Would you please tell Bethany "hi" from her parents? We haven't seen a blog from her for several days and wonder how she is doing. She is in our thoughts and prayers. Remind her to take photos:)!
Bethany's mom
