IF I MAY HAVE YOUR ATTENTION FOR A MOMENT
I was shopping at the local supermarket yesterday and happened to overhear a conversation between a couple. This would not be remarkable except that they were speaking English. And that would not be remarkable unless you remember that I live in Mexico.
Ken and Michele Trapnell are, it turns out, missionaries in a small town south of here. We had a very enjoyable conversation and agreed to exchange email address and web site info.
Over the last two days I have researched this couple and their commitment to Mexico and to Jesus Christ. Both are solid and strong. So here is the reason for this message.
Support this mission!!!
Mexico Medical Missions delivers the goods.
They walk the talk, it's that simple
Please check out their web site.
So, when you're in the next meeting of your church group or social club, or even if you have a calling to help on a personal level, remember Mexico Medical Missions as a place where your energy and resourses will have a maximum impact.
Also, please feel free to forward this message to your contacts across the web. Thanks
