Dear
Friends,
I will be on
sabbatical until mid-August – a time of renewal and refreshment. For the first two months, I am returning to
San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. San
Miguel is in the high desert mountains in the middle of Mexico, south of Guanajuato
and north of Mexico City. No, it is not
on the beach. San Miguel is a seventeenth
century town with a large artist community and a number of expats from North
America, Great Britain, and Australia, approximately ten percent of the
population. I will pray, paint, and play
in San Miguel, a place I have continued to return since my last sabbatical in
2008. I will renew my study of Spanish
and reconnect with friends.

I hope to
come back renewed and ready for the next part of the journey. I will be holding you in my prayers. I am intensely grateful for you and your
deliberateness to be a faithful community of the Beloved.
Much love
and peace,
Mac
