Arrived In Matamoros

We have made it here safely in Mexico.  We crossed the border today at around 2:30 pm.  We had no problems with customs.  On the way here there was really bad rain which made the road conditions pretty bad.  A car not more than 100 yds in front of us hydroplaned and flipped over a couple times landing in the median.  We were the first on the scene and were able to safely get the husband (the driver) out of the truck.  We had to wait to move the wife as she had some pain in her side.  It was a miracle no one was severely injured.  We were glad to be there so quickly to help calm them and call for help.  

Tonight we have a training and dinner - the day starts tomorrow as we go into Matamoros and have church in our local colonia.  We can't wait to start the week and are eager to stop the driving and start the loving.  

Grace and Peace
ERIC
