Nacho Libre

I have been waiting for a few weeks to share the following news. I wanted to make sure things developed enough so that I didn't blow smoke about nothing while pursuing a few things. A few weeks ago we had some of the upper leadership of the MAF world here in Shell to visit. During a lunch meeting with one of the guys, who is our regional manager, he asked us if we were up for a "change," meaning...moving.

The program in Oaxaca, Mexico is needing some help badly right now, and that is where we were asked to consider moving, and that is exactly what we are doing....considering it. Today, I bought tickets to visit Oaxaca (pronounced wa-ha-ca) at the end of next week to get a lot of questions answered, see the program firsthand, and see what life is like in Oaxaca.

Now, for an explanation of the title...for those of you who have seen the movie "Nacho Libre" you have seen the city of Oaxaca. While the places MAF-Mexico serves are vastly different than the city of Oaxaca, the city itself it very "typically" Mexican.

Anyway, in a few weeks, after my scouting trip December 7-13, we will make our decision to stay in Ecuador, or move to Mexico. Please join us in prayer about this as there are pro's and con's to this move, as well as staying in Ecuador.
