Back Home

Hi Everyone! It has been two weeks since I wrote my last blog. The trip went very well! I have been in recovery mode since I have returned on Sunday, the 16th. I wanted to let you know I am doing well and starting to feel like myself again. I will be posting photos soon and sharing stories with each photo. Please stay tuned! Thank you for your prayers!

Hello....

Hi tp everyone who is reading this blog! We are all sore and tired, but doing well.We have been painting from morning until late at night. I will post photos when I get back home. It has been good, but hard. I have enjoyed spending time with Katia and getting to know some of the cutomers that have come through the door. All of our team has great servant hearts and attitudes. We had a christian english speaking group come into the cafe and we were able to spend time with them. They are learning english so they had good practice with us. It was a cool experience and a lot of fun! Tomorrow we will leave to San Andres, up to the mountains. We will be their through Saturday. We will be doing construction work. As far as I know we will be laying a foundation for a building for ministry. We will also be doing children's ministry with around 70 children in the late afternoon, every day we are their. Please pray for our continued health. I have had a sore throat all day and one of the guys, Stephen has a bad back. Please pray we will keep our eyes focused on Jesus and keep working for him and his kingdom. I will try to write again on Saturday. Thank you for your prayers:)

We are in Guadalajara!

Hello friends and family. We arrived into Guadalajara late last night. Mostly because custome took over two hours to get through! We are all doing well and we are healthy. Today was spent as a day of rest. We went to church and then to the teenage Sunday school. We gave testimonies and spent some time hanging out with the youth. They shared with use that most of them are the only Christians in their class. After we were with the youth, the administrator invited us to his house for lunch and we enjoyed spending the rest of the day their. I got to know his daughter as she speaks english and we had some wonderful conversations about faith and life. We have been treated very well as the Mexicans are very hospitable. They have fed us delicious food and they greet you and say good bye to you with a kiss (on the cheek) and a hug. I have been blessed with many kisses and hugs so far:) Tomorrow we will spend time painting the walla of the cafe that Katia and Miguel minister out of. I would share more but it is bed time. I will try to update again on Tuesday. Love and prayers to all! Thank you for your prayer:)

On the plane to Fort Worth right now. It's amazing what technology can do. You can now use wifi while you are high in the sky! After Fort Worth, we arrive in Guadalajara at 8:30 tonight. Prayer requests... that our teams eyes, minds, and hearts will be open to God's will every moment we are in Mexico.  That we will stay healthy. For our hosts, Katia and Miguel and their boys. They have been sick with colds. For the people that God has already planned for us to meet. That their hearts will be ready to meet Jesus and learn more about HIM.
Pray for healing that is needed among the people. My heart is full and ready. Thank you for your prayers and love. I will post more when I am able. GOD BLESS.

Miguel and Katia

Hello all! I wanted to tell you a little about the hosts we are going to be staying with while in Guadalajara. I have posted a photo of Miguel and Katia. They live in Guadalajara with their two sons. They do a ministry out of a small art cafe, mainly with university students. They also serve in many other capacities of ministry. I first met Miguel and Katia when I went to Haiti in 2012. They are wonderful people who serve the Lord in so many ways! Please pray for Miguel and Katia as they receive our team, very soon! Thank you all for your prayers and your love. I can already tell God will do great things for HIS kingdom in Mexico:)
