There is so much good in the worst of us,
And so much bad in the best of us,
That it hardly becomes any of us
To talk about the rest of us.
~Edward Wallis Hoch

With the financial help of our worldwide Mission Partners, volunteers from Cancun Christian Fellowship were able to provide eggs, cheese, chicken, molida especial, pork, salchicha, sliced ham and a cake (a special treat for our children) to our Cancun Christian home. With your financial assistance, groceries are purchased and delivered every Wednesday by members of our church.

We are still on schedule to begin the total renovation of the 3rd of 4 community restrooms at Casa Hogar. We had a conversation with Pastor Mancilla and Esther today and, the GOOD LORD willing, we will be finished by the first week in August

Whoever gossips to you will gossip about you. ~Spanish Proverb

Speaking of August, around the home fires we have been discussing the upcoming CoFC and Mission Partner “Pizza Luncheon” scheduled for August. We realize that August is good for some and not so good for others but no month is perfect for everybody. So, with that said, we are still on for sometime in August. More details will follow.

Trying to squash a rumor is like trying to unring a bell. ~Shana Alexander

Last week we reported that Diana, Nancy, Cherilyn and Kathryn were graciously filling in for Laurie during her absence. All the above is true but Juliette’s name was accidently omitted and how can anyone forget Juliette? (sorry Juliette) Several of the ladies in our church have stepped up when help was needed and your assistance is absolutely appreciated. Family helps family in times of need!

A rumor without a leg to stand on will get around some other way. ~John Tudor

We continue to be blessed with guests attending our Sunday Service. Last week, we had 5 guests that joined us for Sunday worship. It is always great to have travelers and well as new locals visit.

Many of you have written telling us how much you enjoyed last week’s tribute to Andy Griffith. As previously stated, Andy was someone you invited into your home and he never embarrassed you. We will miss him.
