Mexico Movie

A quick video of pictures. Enjoy!

Remember, everyone is invited to come and hear the "stories behind the pictures" Wednesday July 22nd at 7pm at church. Refreshments will follow.

We are home!!

What a trip! I think I can safely say for everyone on the team that God really blessed our time and taught each of us new things each day!

As we crossed the border back in to the states we were all amazed at the thought of a week trip to Mexico, with 19 people  - no serious injuries, no problems crossing the border, no car trouble... We can really see God's hand in the whole trip! 

Thank you all for your prayers and everything you did to make this trip possible! Stay tuned over the next couple of days - I will be posting LOTS of pictures from the trip! 

Hey, all you team members: please leave a comment discribing your highlight of the trip or something that God taught you through this past week!

Home Sweet Home!

We just landed! Actually, we havent even gotten off the plane yet. Time for BED!

we are back in the USA

We made it back! We just enjoyed a BIG meal at the Golden Coral in Lerado. We hop onto our plane at 3:30 and then we'll be home!

Thanks for praying! Plan on hearing about our trip next Wednesday night.

See you soon!

We are still alive... ;)

Hi everyone!! I am sorry to have missed a couple days, we have been busy! We just got back from Ojo De Agua (the water park). We were able to bring all of the kids from the orphanage with us! This morning we went to church with the kids, the music was the hilight for everyone! Zach and Tyler gave their testimonies and the drama team did their drama, which went really well! It was a blessing to participate in worship with the Mexican people!

Last night we and all of the kids danced! They are great dancers, especially the 4 year old Heraldo! All of them are very loving and are blessed to be a part of this orphanage. The leaders are very tender with them and even though all of the kids came from difficult backgrounds, God has used Mario and Blanca and the other leaders to work in their lives.

We have continued doing a lot of painting on Thurday and Friday. We are painting the new addition to the dormitory and the bodega. Lots of great time to work on team building. We have a great team! God has used us to bring a little girl to Christ during VCS. Please continue to pray that God would use us in the lives of the kids here at the orphanage. We want them to see Christ through us and we want to be an example of who He is.

Friday, Saturday

Time is flying by! We have been busy working here at the orphanage, finishing up our VBS and hanging out with the kids. Saturday we visited a cave and went to the Market. The highlight of the day was coming home and dancing with the children! Wa-t till you see the video! Sunday we will be going to church in the am, a water park with the children in the afternoon and church again in the pm. We are already dreading saying goodbye! Than you for your prayers! Please continue to pray for us! Pray for us as we worship in a new culture. Please also pray that God would show each of the team members what it is He is teaching them! We know you are praying and cannot wait to share with you about what God has been doing here in Mexico! Mark on your calendars Wednesday the 22nd! At 7pm, we'll be sharing about our experiences with the church family! Please plan on joining us! Thanks everyone! Pastor Chris
