    In the middle of July I was able to go to New Mexico with a group of Dunkard Brethren to teach Bible School at the mission they have in Cuba, New Mexico.  To give you an idea how far removed we were from civilization, it was an hour to Cuba, the nearest town and two hours to Albuquerque where they have a mall at. Also, animals roamed. We were staying on the Navajo reservation in the village of Torreon.  Everyday we did a work project or hiked in the morning and the afternoon was reserved for preparation for Bible School.
