I just wanted to send you a quick update on Nathan´s travels for today.  We currently do not have internet service at the childrens home so I am paying for internet service at an internet cafe in Jerez.  We have not had internet since Monday, so hopefully it will be fixed soon!

Nathan, Nef and Sam left this morning around 9 am.  It has been raining here all day, but I was praying that the direction that they were traveling there would be better weather for them.  Unfortunately not.  The suburban and trailer are seriously loaded down with the contents of our entire house, so the rain made me extra nervous.  They were also stopped for quite a while at a checkpoint where the police told Nathan that his paperwork and permission for the trailer wasn´t correct so they were going to confiscate it!  After a while of arguing, Nathan ended up paying them $200 pesos and they let him go.  Of course the paperwork for the trailer is correct.  So it has been a long day for the guys, and they are stopping sooner than Nathan had planned, but with the bad weather it is already dark and it isn´t safe to be traveling at night. Hopefully traveling will go better tomorrow, with no more unexpected expenses!!

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all of your prayers!

In Christ,

Mary
