3 Amigas (Arlene, Beverly and Marita)

We had breakfast with Arlene, Beverly and Gretchen (who sat in for Marita) at some Mexican restaurant down the street from Rio Grande Bible Institute in McAllen, Tx.

Arlene and Beverly are both widowed. Both lived and served in Guatemala and then in Mexico. What a rich history of faithfulness to the Lord for his mercy’s are New every morning.

We were making “connections right and left”. Do you know so-in-so? Who else went to language school with you? What was it like living in Guatemala those years (60’s and 70’s)? How has it been and what has been the difficulties since your husband died?

My heart was blessed and encouraged. Gretchen joined since she lives in the area. She was also Karen’s 2nd grade teacher back in the early 90’s when we as a family lived and served in Bolivia.

I gave the ladies gift bags of encouragement that included blank cards, candles, lotion and gift card to Sonic and Olive Garden. We hope they are encouraged as much as they were a blessing to us. They shared their lives with so many people through the years. Thank you. Thank youRead more
