Mexico Missions with Bruce and Paula: HAPPY BIRTHDAY JESUS, THE WHOLE WORLD IS BLESSED BY HIM

Yesterday while were surrounded by kids and their parents, we gave them a clear and concise invitation to receive the greatest gift of all for all of mankind, namely the forgiveness of sins provided by the coming of Jesus Christ to this earth. Salvation can be found no other way than to accept the free gift of Salvation wrapped up in a relationship with the only One capable to to offer it. God came down on that Christmas morning to reveal His plan of redemption to mankind. When this baby boy grew up, He provided purification from sin (unbelief) and now resides in the heart of only those that believe, Wow what a gift!!! The God of all creation lives in me.
Many came forward for prayer and an opportunity to give God thanks. Paula and Carmelo cooked up 600 hot dogs for the event, and Curtis and Brand Adams flew in from Kentucky for the opportunity to bless all the children with a gift for Christmas. Lee and Diane Thalmen from our church in McAllen joined us for the day along with several other friends that are servants in Mexico to the poor. Hundreds lined up for hot dogs, juice boxes, a gift or two, a salvation bracelet, and a copy of the Story Of Jesus booklet. The Garcia family provided the worship music, as Brandy and I joined in with our new found passion for playing the guitar. Carmelo and Paula both gave a great Christmas message.
When the festivities were done there, we drove through the colonia giving hot dogs to everyone that we came in contact with until they were all gone. An awesome day indeed followed by another great meal that Ruth and Paula made while Brandy, Curtis and I jammed on the Guitars trying to sing in Spanish and play at the same time. I think we sounded pretty good!!
Paula and Ruth are making tamales today, we'll spend tonight in Mexico, eat tamales on Christmas morning, and then head back across to join some friends at Scott and Joannas house for Christmas dinner, and then on Friday our friends from Moraine Valley Church come down for a week of building a house and blessing more people. Yea it's busy around here, as always, but "ONLY WHATS DONE FOR CHRIST WILL LAST."

PEACE AND GOOD WILL TOWARDS ALL, FOR YOUR GOD CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN JUST FOR YOU AND ME BECAUSE HE REALLY REALLY LOVES US!!!

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.
