Mexico Missions with Bruce and Paula: THE WORK AND OPPORTUNITIES NEVER ENDING

When the group packed up and left last week, we thought there would be a little rest before the next team arrives on the 22nd. But God always has something else to do. Hector from Sende Vida Ministry called me and told me about 6 families that lost thiers homessage in a fire. On our way Monday to check out the situation and see if we could help, we ran across the Power Ministry prep team working in the same colonia. We stopped and greeted the guys and took a few photos.
We continued to the street where the houses burned down and met the one family. Being as busy as we are, I couldn't guarantee any help, but knew we had to do something. Jose said he knew how to build concrete block walls, so I bought all the materials and Hector brought 18 guys the next day to help build it. GOD ALWAYS PROVIDES!!! I'll take the wood over Monday to start on the roof trusses, and we should be done by Thursday.
Johnny, Andreas and Eleazar are building a house in Flora De Mayo all by themselves this week as well. They should be done by Tuesday., and can help me on the other house.
Paula had several ladies from the US join her sewing class Thursday and brought gift bags for all the ladies in Paula's sewing class, and some great food for lunch.
Sergio and I went to Sams Club in Mexico and bought lots of food for our next outreach and called Gator and Jaime to come and get food for thier orphanages.
Today I played golf with four other missionaries that serve in Mexico. We then attended Neal Dorschs 91st birthday party. Neal and his late wife have been serving the Lord for decades, supporting missions with all they have.
Year end giving statements will be going out soon and we are so

grateful for all the prayers and support we receive from you. We're trusting God to do even more this year.

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.
