...share your food with the hungry and provide the poor wanderer with shelter--when you see the naked clothe him... Isaiah 58:7
A SPRING WORK WEEK, NOT WORK BREAK
A 3200 mile drive was the price that Dave Dennison, his daughter Becky and her daughter Jessica paid to be used by God to reach out and touch hundreds of lives this week in Mexico. We purchased and then distributed food to 15o families Monday and Tuesday. They gathered at our ministry center Tuesday to pick thru some clothes we laid out, and then another missionary family came and sang songs and gave a message to the people before the food was handed out. Pastor Victor and his wife Ericka celebrated 30 years of marriage and invited us to lunch and cake with them. Wed. we were given a van load of cabbage that we took over and handed out as we drove thru the colonia before retreating to South Padre Island to watch the sunset and eat dinner. Thursday took us back to Mexico to buy the materials for a house being built next week, and on the way to the colonia Dave, Becky and Jessica wanted to bless 93 year old Guadalupe' with a new bed and stove, so we spent the afternoon cleaning out her house and making room for her new bed. What a sweet lady, and she was so grateful for the blessings from God. Although our guests didn't build a house this week, they did build build some new relationships, both with us, and the people in the colonia, so thanks to three generations of the same family for offering up their bodies as living sacrifices. ADIOS
