Who is in Texas?

Hello group. It seems like there are a lot of groups that get together, but none really around us. Are there any of you out there. I know that I have chatted with a few of you before.

I'm in Keller, TX - right next door to Fort Worth!

There is a Texamalan group that gets together every year for an outing, but we have not yet gone as well as a discussion list, I believe.

Hello,

I hope that you find yourselves well.

I was wondering if any of you can meet on Sunday, October 26th at 3:00 p.m. to have a play group meeting. I would love to meet you and your children from Guatemala.

Please let me know if you can attend. I want to do a Harvest theme (overalls) and our church which is 5 minutes from the house is having a pumpkin patch that would make great pictures.

We live in the Jersey Village Area (290).

Thanks,

Raquel
