I don't have a lot of personal acquaintance with them, but I think the church service I probably enjoyed most in the whole of my life was at a National Presbyterian Church (Berith) in Mexico City (Coyoacan). The pastor is Gerald Nyndhuis (I am not sure of the spelling), and he preached a very interesting message from Acts 28. They sang some great hymns I had never heard before, and only the pastor and one ruling elder spoke with me and my friends as we were going out (and I had a particular question to ask him). | That's good to hear.
I thought it was neat the youth at the table were from a PCA church (for some reason, I usually (wrongly) assume baptist in connection with missions). Amen.

A reoccurring thought:
Rev 22:20 He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
