The girls here at the ranch are wonderful young ladies that apparently have a creative side! A few of the girls within the dorm got together and decided that they would like to make a small movie just for fun. Marisela, on of the staff members from Queretaro, was able to make an outline of what the girls would do for a story line and I became the man behind the camera! My skills aren't that great, but God is good no matter how many faults I have! lol. The girls were pretty amazing though. They just knew the plot of the movie and I started rolling. On the spot, they made up dialogue and did some pretty good acting for not practicing prior to us filming! The movie is about a mother who loses her daughter and is frantically trying to find her now with the help of her community.You guys have to check out this video when you have the chance just for fun!
Part of the program is to read some material that inspires us as Christians to really think what we are doing as a church. I hold the Bible very highly, which ought to be done, and I appreciate that these authors, Steve Corbett and Brian Fikkert, are able to use the Bible to backup what they are saying. I am so far about half way done with the book and I am enjoying so far what they are saying. I am looking forward to finishing the rest of this book in the nearby future!
We had an awesome group come down and experience our wold's famous taqueria down the street and I was shocked! I have always enjoyed the food at the taqueria and at times may appear to be slightly obsessive to go eat their food; however, I believe after seeing what I have seen, my yearning for their food is now miniscule compared to some of the boys from this recent group. I have now officially witnessed the first triple torta that Valle de Guadalupe has made and is willing to serve this to any brave takers! ¡Viva la raza! lol
So, to start off the Spring, the Ranch decided to put on a play on the topic of Deaf history! A lot of the focus of this celebration was primarily based on Benito Juarez, the first president to recognize the Deaf and help establish the first Deaf school in Mexico. The students were able to put on costumes, hand paint the background of one of the Deaf schools, and even sport marker mustaches! These kids had a wonderful time!
