Mexico Missions with Bruce and Paula: DEDICATION DAY, BY FAR THE BEST DAY

Today the Moraine Valley Church youth group called Revolution, will present the house they built to Juan Carlos, Jenny and their baby boy Dylan. It's hard to describe how proud I am of these young followers of Christ. Working through a heat index every day surpassing 100 degrees, they never complained or gave up working. So today we will celebrate our Great God and Savior and He accomplished through them. Yesterday the team split up and half went to an Orphanage in the building process. Melody Orphanage is one of the projects God has given us to do. The Revolution team helped out tremendously getting some much needed work done. The rest of us finished with the house and it's all decorated and ready to go. I got a call yesterday from Dan Larson, he's a Pastor in Oregon. Their youth group was going to southern Mexico on a missions trip this Friday but the missionaries cancelled their trip which left themy hanging, Dan got a Facebook post from Mike Locke, the Revolution Pastor and called to see if we could host their group. They arrive tomorrow, I ordered Wood so they can build a house, and they are excited and so are we, tired, but excited.

HIS STORY IN OUR LIVES

We moved to the TX/MX border in the Fall of '07 from Chicago, IL. We had been coming to Reynosa on short-term missions trips for over 10 years. Each time we left a little bit more of our hearts behind. Thru the circumstances of life Paula and I both agreed that now is the time to do that which gave us meaning and purpose in life. So we sold our home and came to the Rio Grand Valley at the southern most point of Texas. We have since joined with Mexico Missions Inc. to assist them with their childrens backpack programs in Mexico. Our mission is to reach the poorest of the poor in Mexico. We build homes, offer food and clothing to those in need, but most importantly we share the love and hope that is found in our Lord Jesus Christ. Living radical lives has expanded our vision and ministry from feeding hundreds of families to thousands.

WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP US REACH OUT TO THOSE IN NEED

Our ministry is totally supported by people like you.Since we did not raise our needed support before entering the mission field we continue to walk by faith that God will speak to the hearts of those of you reading our blog and joining us on short term trips to Mexico to help us help our brothers and sisters in Reynosa. If you would like to contribute to us personally, sponsor a child to attend school, give to the building of a home for a needy family, or even have us facilitate a food outreach, contact us via E-mail or send checks made out to MEXICO MISSIONS INC. and mail to our new address, P.O. Box 68 San Juan, Tx. 78589. If you would like to support us personally, put B&P in the memo column. If you would like to sponsor a specific outreach, list that as well in the memo column. All gifts are tax deductable. Child school sponsorship $400.00 per year per child, a newly designed home can be built with some help from the people in Mx. for a gift of $3800.00 or any portion thereof until enough money is raised to build one. Many houses could just use new roofing and some other fixes to make them more habitable. God Bless You as you give.
