At the border

The ride down to Mexico was fairly uneventful.  We did have a bird hit the van which was pretty wild.  We went through the border and we got our visas then we ran into a snag.  The vehicles were rented to the church and not John or Terry so they would not approve our paperwork.  Terry found a business card in the van and we prayed that it would work.  They wanted a letter on official letterhead and they would not take a fax.  One of the clerks suggested taking a business card photocopying it and then writing a permission slip on it.  We  crossed the boarder at lunch but we didn't get through immigration until after 3:00.  I attached a copy of the hand written letter that Terry put together that got us through.
