Thanksgiving in Mexico! Instead of serving up a platter of turkey, our Mexico Orphanage team will be serving up love with Back2Back Mexico, a mission that serves ten orphanages in Monterrey. The team will depart this Saturday, November 20, from the Eastern Iowa Airport, and return the following Friday, November 26.
Theresa Appleby, and daughter Christine, first served with Back2Back last year. They returned with a desire to lead a team from New Covenant. This year's team members are: Theresa Appleby, Christine Appleby, Rachel Prochaska, Ashley Goos, Tim Holderman, Jim and Angie Nowak, Sam Nowak, Katie Nowak, Dave and Beth Kvindlog, Elise Kvindlog, and T.J. Kvindlog and Chris Loewen. The team will spend Thanksgiving week playing with children, rocking babies, painting, doing construction, and helping in various ways.
“It was wonderful to see how the children responded to our affection last year despite the language barrier,” said Theresa. "I loved sharing in the process of helping those who labor there.”
Pray for the team as they care in the name of Christ down in Mexico.
