Living Life Together

A big part of discipling others is learning about God's Word together.  Our Thursday night studies on the Life of Christ is exactly for that.  We enjoy going through Christ's life chronologically, and seeing how His teachings apply to our lives.

Another part of discipling is just living life together.  This means walking together through the good and the bad, the fun times and the sad times.  Thankfully, we've had the opportunity to share a lot of fun times with our discipleship group! Going out for tacos, to the movies, to play "futbolito" (fooseball), to hang out in the homes of the other group members, etc. 

Some of us drinking hot drinks on a cold afternoon

Having an improptu fooseball tournament after watching Avengers!

We are thankful to be able to have these good time with this group of people that God has allowed to become great friends!

Championships

The Queretaro Major League Soccer team, the Gallos Blancos (White Roosters, yeah, everyone thinks the name is lame) got to the final games of the Mexican League soccer championship this year!  This is a first for the Gallos, only ONCE had the team ever even gotten to the playoffs before, so this was big! 
The first half of the final game (it's a 2-game final) was held on a Thursday night at the same time as our discipleship group, so we used the night as a time to just hang out and watch the game!
Here we are at Brenda's house, enjoying dinner and the Gallos game!

The Gallos lost that first game 0-5, yikes!  We won the second game 3-0, but it wasn't enough, the Santos Laguna team was champion.  But it was fun to see the local team in the finals, and to get a chance to scream at the TV for 2 hours with friends!
