Last Full Day

Please keep us in your prayers as we end our week here. We were able today to attend 'Good Sheperd Babtista Church', yes a sister church here in Mazatlan. This is the church that brought about the orphanage. While traveling throughout Mexico to find a good location for the orphanage, Ed's car broke down in Mazatlan. He made some calls to some local churches to see if someone could help his situation. When he rang the church of Efram (pastor), the secretary said the doctor was out. Well long story short the pastor is also a doctor, and he had been praying for years for an orphanage to become established for handicap children. Our first trips to Mazatlan included VBS with this church, which is well established and thriving. This morning we arrived just before a phone call from home in which we learned of my moms passing in the night. She went in her sleep without much pain. Efram was a blessing this morning. We appreciate our dear friend. Thank you again for your prayers, this has been an amazing trip, and we look forward to sharing it with you in person. Pray as we travel tomorrow, and as we return to our families. Cathy and Brenden Burge
