We leave for the Ranch in three and a half months and I know that it is going to fly by! Here is a list of some things that you can do to get ready for the trip and the mission.1) Ladies, practice letting your hair air dry since we'll be hair dryer free for a week.
2) Start throwing toilet paper in the trash can instead of flushing. (Okay, maybe not)
3) Be sure to be deep in God's Word and ask Him to show you His heart for the children we will be serving. Start with James 1:27, Psalm 82:3, Psalm 68:5, Psalm 10:18, Isaiah 1:17.
4) Pray daily for your heart to be ready, for the team to be ready and for provision for the needs of the Ranch.
5) Speak Spanish to whoever will listen. I like to practice on my dog.
6) Take a siesta every day at 2 p.m.!
7) Check out www.ranch3m.com to learn more about the ministry of the Ranch.
8) Tri-weekly bi-cep training for the fence crew.
Any other ideas from past team members?

I must say that's one thing Spanish/Latin cultures have as an up against the US...they siesta!
Yes Siesta was amazing! I'm pretty sure I would have died without that rest.
