3 Daughters, 3 Provinces and 3 Churches-Oct 2022

Hello Family & Friends,
July brought another trip to Canada. This trip was geared towards raising awareness of the Mexico Recovery Ministry which allowed me (Cheryl) to visit three daughters in three provinces, nine grandkids, lots of family, lots of friends as well as give ministry updates in churches. Distance didn’t stop us from gathering, catching up on hugs and sharing stories from the last few years.
My youngest daughter Rebekah and her family purchased a farm in Big River Saskatchewan December 2020. I thoroughly enjoyed my first visit getting a taste of farm life and spending time having fun, fun, fun with my daughter and grandkids. Tea parties were a favorite activitiy!
Kelsey, my middle daughter, lives in Forst Saskatchewan, Alberta. Alberta was the gathering place for many. The Hoople and Szott families hosted big family BBQ’s so we could all be together eating decadent Canadian food and making treasured memories.
My eldest daughter Jessica and her family live in Burns Lake BC. They took me to their cabin that has a majestic view of Ootsa Lake with mountains in the background. It was a little taste of heaven spending time playing board games and enjoying the great outdoors together.
I am thankful for the opportunities to give updates about the Mexico Recovery Ministry in three churches and host a Picnic in the Park for friends in the Edmonton area. We had a great turnout. Francisco and I are so thankful for the many that partner with us in ministry.
Returning to Mexico always brings opportunities to gather and enjoy the folks around us. September 18 our Celebrate Recovery forever family set their homework aside and gathered to celebrate Mexican Independence Day. I tried my hand at making carnitas (a Mexican dish), and it was a hit! Fun was had by all as we had great weather, an outstanding ocean view and a huge turnout.
On October 22 our Celebrate Recovery hosted our 7th Annual Networking Event in Calvary Rosarito. We hosted Celebrate Recovery leaders and participants from various parts of Mexico and the USA. It was our honor to have Richard & Dora Cobb, the International Directors of Celebrate Recovery as our key-note speakers to encourage us and update us on how God is touching the lives of His people through the Celebrate Recovery materials worldwide.
In case you couldn't join us, we broadcasted this event live at: https://www.facebook.com/calvaryrosarito Francisco and I thank you for your ongoing prayers and support as we serve hand in hand leading the Mexico Recovery Ministry.
Blessings, Cheryl & Francisco
