BACK IN THE SADDLE AGAIN

We left Chicago after our annual pizza party at Moraine Valley Church on August 30th. About 100 people came to hear about our work in Mexico and Melodys Orphanage. We never ask for donations, but one couple put forth a matching challenge to build a house, and when God finished speaking to the hearts of the people attending, donations of enough money to build one house, plus the dollar per dollar match, TWO HOUSES!!!.
At the time we were there, Melodys Orphanage didn't have any children, but that all changed today. Jaime brought Jesus, a 10 year old boy that came to live at the orphanage. More kids are expected in the near future as God answers all the prayers and petitions. YEAH!!!!
Today we jumped back into building dreams for families in Mexico. Tyson, Amber, and Chuck arrived last night from Iowa. We went to our Sunday school class at Calvary Baptist Church and headed to Mexico. Sergio and Andres had one wall built and by days end we had the other 3 up.
We already miss Lea, Kris, Larry, Gianna, and Gabby, as well as everyone else, but the calling of God are irrevocable. Thanks to all that came and gave of their resources at the pizza party, we are indeed grateful to God for the privilege of serving Him.
