Mexico Missions with Bruce and Paula: THERE'S NO PLACE LIKE HOME, OR ON THE ROAD

Being on the road is what we have to do, considering our family and partners are spread across the country. We arrived home Saturday night after helping Kelly move into her new digs in Breckenridge, Colorado .A beautiful, but albeit, expensive place to live. Lots of help, both loading and unloading the rental truck. Our stay at The Prospect R.V. Park in Wheat Ridge, CO. Was short but sweet, when the owners blessed us with a free stay at their camp ground. They said they just wanted to bless us for being a blessing to the poor. FAVOR JUST SEEMS TO CHASE US DOWN!!
We stayed two nights in Breckenridge and headed South Friday morning.
The new R.V. runs great, and handles even better. A few problems with the A/C and generator while plugged in to outlets, but the dash board A/C works great while driving down the road.
We were glad to make it home for church Sunday, and spent part of Monday in the colonia. ROHI Foundation leaders Scott and Cory we're in Mexico working out details of building a wall around the schools in the colonia for security reasons. We donated towards that effort of keeping the kids safe.
Yesterday we visited Melodys Orphanage and met the new kids that have been entrusted to Jaime and Rosalba. They are so nice, and are experiencing God's love. The total is 7 kids now, and we are trusting God to bring in the support needed for their care. If anyone wants to support the orphanage , send us checks to Mexico Missions and mark Melodys Orphanage in the memo, and we'll get it to them. Thanks for all the support.

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.
