Go to Jenna's blog to see more fotos and an extremely cute video of Camille quacking at the car horn!

"But I wonder if the first things shouldn't be to know people by name, to eat & drink with them, to listen to their stories & tell your own, & to let them know with words, handshakes, & hugs that you do not simply like them, but truly love them...The greatest news of all is that God is with His people, that He is truly present. What greater ministry, then, can be practiced than a ministry that reflects this divine presence?"
(Henri Nouwen, ¡Gracias!)
My name is Megan - or Magi as I'm known here in Mexico!
Each of us is called to seek & serve God; He has asked me to do so among & alongside the people in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico.
I'm part of a church plan in my neighborhood called Iglesia Shalom (formerly Luz en la Obscuridad), where I'm involved in discipleship, children's ministry and community outreach. As a nurse I'm also exploring the possibility of beginning a church-based health ministry.
Beyond this, I try to embody the love of Jesus for my Tijuana neighbors. I also spend a lot of time learning from & with those around me. I believe that my most important ministry is that of convivir - literally, "to live with" - the people of Tijuana.
This blog is a place where you can join with me, and where I can hacer memoria - "make memory" & tell of the kindnesses & faithfulness & grace of our God in my own story...
It will mostly be focused on my life & ministry in Mexico, but also on other pieces of my journey as I seek & serve God.
Thanks for joining me!
If you would like to know more, to receive my updates & letters, to pray for me & for God's work in Tijuana, or to simply encourage... please let me know!

Hahahahaha! Did you inform Camille that being healthy is a game that you play for your whole life? And that if you lose at that game, no one will like you because you'll be like a sack of boring old potatoes? I don't want Cam to become a spud. Tell her. Also, tell her how much milk she should be drinking each day, because I hear it is the healthiest thing in the whole world.
p.s.
What are you pointing to?
Could it be... your LOVE PUMPAH?...
First of all, I believe that would be a "bag of wet sand" not potatoes, at least according to Munro Leaf... And secondly, maybe you should leave your comments under your own name instead of pretending to be your grandmother :)
