With all but one group canceling their missions trip to Mexico along the border this summer, we too must change. We are building in a fee different colonia, and closer to the community center. I'm always big on being flexible, but I like bending people, not being bent.
We are getting Pastor Juans house in Reynosa ready for Christ Central Church heading here next weekend. We'll be installing a truss system and the roof, and maybe some stucco.
Tomorrow we visit a family in Alamo , that we visited before, to help with their house after a fire destroyed part of it. Sunset Presbyterian Church in Portland Oregon will be doing the work, and not crossing the border in July. I'll have to bring all my tools across from Mexico to do the work. We're trusting God to move in the hearts of the family that we are blessing .
In between the two groups, we will be traveling to Puebla, Mexico to join our directors doing medical and dental clinics in 5 towns near Puebla. There are 7 of us going to join 30 others from OK and MX. We will be taking food, and buying more once there. Phil and Marianne Chain will be going down this week towing our trailer full of beans and rice.
I'm buying all lumber and roofing materials in Texas now. The prices in Mexico have gone up a lot. It a huge hassle for us, so maybe I'll just raise the price of house to reflect the new costs.
We will be getting our donated load of beans next week, and are still believing God for a load of rice. $9000.00 if anyone feels led to donate towards it.
Paula told me that a young man accepted Christ as Saviour this afternoon at the Community Center after the sewing class. Praise the Lord!!!
Gotta go, getting to long on words. Thanks for choosing to give to the ministry, and if you don't, why not?
