Mexico Missions with Bruce and Paula: ANOTHER WEEK OF MINISTRY WITH CHRIST LEADING

Sergio and I loaded the van with a new water pump needed at Big Heart Orphanage in the mountains near Saltillo Tuesday. We also loaded up the van with other stuff Gator needed. Of course we arrived in time to eat Mexican food in Ramos Arizpe. After lunch Sergio worked on one of the trucks at the orphanage and we installed the new pump that supplies water to the bunk houses that Fortify Ministries needs for their two teams coming this week and next.
Dianna rode back with us Wednesday morning to Reynosa. We had an hours line at the border. We had dinner with the Power Ministry guys Thursday night, Friday I picked up hundreds of donated coats and we got them all across the border.
Saturday I spent the day with Power visiting several ministries, churches and orphanages as well. We purchased hundreds of tooth brushes, paste, bars of soap, and other health items for the caravan migrants staying at Sende De Vida in Reynosa. Juice boxes for all the kids. The next day we took hundreds of coats to the migrants from Honduras and Guatemala staying at Sende De Vida, along with bottles of shampoo for all.
Yesterday we took the rest of the coats across and sorted them at the Community Center. We'll be taking them to Micheocan Mexico next week, and hopefully see the monarch butterflies nearby.

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.
