At church we are always looking for creative ways to share the gospel. So today and tomorrow (we're expecting a lot of kids tomorrow!), we are inviting people to take a picture with our very own three wisemen...using the costumes that were made for the Christmas drama. Take the picture, pay 10 pesos, and get the picture printed out in full color for 10 pesos (less than $1). Oh, and get a tract too.
Here's Mayra with the three kings, Arnulfo, Alberto and Gerardo.
I would be amiss to mention the fantastic Rosca de Reyes. It is a circular, sweet bread creation, that actually has little white plastic dolls baked into the bread. If you cut a piece and get the little doll, you have to buy tamales on February 2nd!
In other news, after a relaxing couple of days here at years end, I was able to crawl back into ministry by preaching today. The church is starting the book of Romans with 2009, my text; Romans 1:1-7. Laura Guaza also visited today, and sang several songs. We also began the year with a celebration of the Lord's supper.
We would, as always, very much appreciate your prayers as we look forward to another great year of family and ministry.

Great pictures! It was so nice to meet your family and the church family during our Christmas visit to Mexico! We will be praying for you and the team as you begin new things and face the challenges of ministry. We really enjoyed our excursion with your family and our kids and grandkids. Thanks for being a great encouragement to them as they serve with you.
God bless,
Gary and Ardys Winger (Shari's parents)
