Croc 2017:  Day 3

Sunday is a busy day on the streets of Croc.  We took some time to walk around the town and observe the busy street markets.  Food, clothing and household goods stands lined the streets as the entire population of the town seemed to be out socializing.  We then made our way back to the church to get dressed and ready for the service.  We had the privilege of sharing communion with the local congregation.  Kurt shared a message with both Spanish and English speaking believers about how we all are equal members at the table of our Lord.  After the service, we shared a family meal with the everyone.

We spent the afternoon touring Monterrey.  The first few hours were spent at a downtown market.  Mexicans were celebrating Family Day as a national holiday so the market and park were busy with food vendors and musical performers.  We then took the winding drive up to the top of a mountain overlooking the sprawling city.

After a wonderful dinner and another round of Survivor Mexico we headed to bed late and plenty tired for a third night in a row.  We are eager to roll up our sleeves and start our mission work tomorrow.
