Mexico Missions with Bruce and Paula: OH WHAT A DIFFERENCE A DAY MAKES

Sometimes we need a good slap in the face!! Not literally of course. Maybe I should call it a good Holy Ghost wake up call. Yeah, that sounds so much more spiritual. My last post, just the other day, had a few people call me and question my motive for posting a scathing accusation about people not caring for or supporting Melodys Orphanage. Well, I had a crisis of faith. A temporary removal of trusting God, who is the Sourse,to trusting people who are the "resourse" that God uses. So if you felt that I was trying to lay some guilt trip on you or manipulate anyone it was not my motive.

When we take our eyes off of the source, God, and place them on people, the resource, than we set ourselves up for disappointment and frustration and even a judgmental attitude. I'm glad God is the source, is now and always will be!! So I'm sorry if you felt I was attacking you or your heart for kids. We all have a purpose and a calling to fulfill and they are all different from each other. So I'm going to enjoy the provision for my purpose and let everyone else enjoy thier provision for thier purpose, and let God be God because He knows how to provide for everything.

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.
