Mexico Missions with Bruce and Paula: IT'S ALL WORTH IT

The 16 hour drive each way, the long bus rides to the outreaches, the things left behind undone, the great fellowship . The absolutely beautiful scenery , the faces of the kids as they opened their backpacks. The tear filled eyes of those praying to receive Christ, the skills of the dentists, doctors, nurses, and triage workers. Those that cooked and served hotdogs all day. The young people from Chiapas ministering to the kids in drama and song. The 3 ladies from Jamaica 93 and twins at 91 years old, praying and blessing us all. Too much to mention, you'll just have to come and experience it all. Next years dates July 27th to July 3rd.
We arrived back home Thursday afternoon to get ready for the youth group from Portland, OR. We laid out the floor plan at the house in Donna, TX. With help from Ron from our church in McAllen. He is a builder and really knows his stuff. So Hot here, we quit after 3 hours. The team will be experiencing the full fury of S.Texas humidity . They'll build the addition and paint the house as well.
Thanks for praying for us and supporting the ministry. We are trusting God to raise up some new supporters, if you believe in what we do, prayerfully consider becoming part of what God is doing through us. God seems to be leading us to do more in Central Mexico.

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.
