Long Wait

Trent Cabrera — Sun, 14 Aug 2022 22:35:36 +0000

It’s been quite a while since we’ve last posted. many things have happened since. concerts, gatherings, students coming and going, a lot of running around. our son has grown a lot in such a short time. he’s off running and dancing and will hopefully be speaking soon. we received his passport and other documents not long ago and have already been blessed to have been able to take him to the USA for the first time. we’re actually preparing ourselves to go once more tomorrow Aug 15, for a small conference. we hope to see many of y’all during our short stay.

This is pretty much Emilio all day when he’s not asleep. full of energy. very strong. he’s a handful but truly a gift from God. seeing him grow and learn is a great feeling. it’s also challenging us to further change ourselves so we can be better examples for him. I hope he becomes a better man than myself one day.

My wife Karen took our son Emilio to a woman’s event, along with some of her friends and their children. turns out it’s a big touristy town and she snapped a picture of us all on a tiny train when we went to pick them all up.

unfortunately water is often a big issue here in Boca. Tanks break, pipes break, and often we have many people/ construction projects here on the church campus. we’ve finally buried another water tank yesterday that will hopefully help keep us well supplied. the new school year is just around the corner and there’s much to do to prepare. so far, it looks like all students quarters will be full, some folks will need to share rooms as well. Lord willing, this will be a very prosperous year. Also, many may already know, Ryan will be coming down with his family as well. We are very excited to receive all that God will provide through them.

that’s all we got for now. much love, God bless!

The Road to Town

Hello, we went for a drive to our closest city recently and figured we should grab a quick video. Though the video is very simple and straight forward, I wanted it because I recalled being back in the States, before arriving to Boca Del Rio, and wondering just how remote it is. The description often given to me was simply “fishing village” and that doesn’t give a whole lot to run with. So perhaps if anyone else has a wandering mind like mine was, this one’s for you.

As for the ride, there are a few villages and a gas station or two in-between but, for the most part, it’s a whooole lotta corn. Our village is pretty much the last stop at the end of the road too. I’ve visited a few villages around here and, for whatever reason, they don’t have the same home vibe like Boca does.

A Little Prepping

Heyoo! With all the construction and projects going on over here, there are a lot of materials showing up at the door. Thankfully we have a good batch of folks that are always ready to work. Here we are unloading a truck full of blocks to prep for some new walls to be built on the second story of the restaurant (updates on that later). The sun and humidity don’t make things any easier but the end results, as well as the joy of simply being active/healthy, certainly makes it all feel more satisfying. Could do without the gnarly tan lies though…

Hey everyone, here’s a quick video to introduce myself and my wife who was behind the camera. I’m here serving at Calvary Chapel Boca Del Rio in Sinaloa, Mexico and I’m mainly serving as the facilities manager of the church and my wife Karen is serving as the administrator of the church. Also just want to thank you for all your prayers!
