I am so happy and thankful I was able to go on this trip not only because of the people I met, and I believe gained as friends, but also because of the work that I saw being done in puebla, mexico. It was such a blessing to spend the time we did with the wakefield family and to be able to be apart of their conference. God really spoke to my heart on this trip. To say that I was effected or that I left changed would be just the bare minimum of what took place on that trip! It was an awesome experience to have been able to visit puebla. It is absolutely beautiful! This was not my first time to mexico so I didn't experience that much culture shock , but I did experience mexican culture first hand in a way that was different the my other trips. God moved in each service beautifully, and even though we (some of us) didn't understand the language, the presence of God was something we all had in common and could connect over.

So exhausted and sad the trip is OVER :(
But so excited for DISNEYLAND !!
Being able to be apart of the street service in just the small way that I was, was awesome! Being able to see how the people responded and to see how hungry they were was moving. People all around us where ever we went were hungry, not only spiritually but also for food. It just broke my heart to see all the children begging and working just so that they could eat. I know I am rambling but I guess I can't properly organize my thoughts . To sum it all up it was awesome! The wakefield girls are such sweet young ladies and it was beautiful to see them along side their family devoted to missions. What an awesome testamony! I really miss everyone!!!:( Can't wait till next Year!
