Mexico Missions with Bruce and Paula: WHEW!!! SUMMER MISSIONS IS IN THE BOOKS

Today we dedicated our 3rd house in 30 days. Naples Christian Church youth group built the house in record temperature. Each day topped 104. The fruit that has been born out of the last three youth groups is totally worth every minute. Today Alvarado, his wife Mediam and their children all committed their lives to Christ. That makes, I think, 16 people accepted Christ as Saviour this month.
What a great time this week's team has had. Brett is the Youth Pastor at their church and has wanted to come to Mexico on a trip with us for 10 years, and God finally gave him the desire of his heart. An incredible day today, topped off with a visit to Progresso Mexico for some souvenirs and of course Mexican food.
We drive the team to San Antonio Saturday morning and head for Chicago. We'll pack everyone into the R.V. and continue North. Looking forward to some cooler weather.
We will be hosting our annual pizza party at Moraine Valley Church on August 30th at 5:30 pm. All are invited, we will provide the pizza and beverages, anyone willing, can bring a dessert or veggies. Please RSVP to Paula or myself, we will need a head count. We will be sharing about our ministry as well as the miraculous transformation of Melodys Orphanage. See you soon!!!

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.
