Keep them in your prayers as we will be taking them into Matamoras, Mexico. The first day went well with the V.B.S. We had about 80 people including the parents with the kids. They also had the opportunity to pass out rice and beans in a colonia (neighborhood) . As they were passing out the rice and beans, a bunch of us guys started playing soccer with kids from Mexico. Before you knew it everyone jumped in, including women, Pastors, and all! What a blast!
I had the opportunity along with a father and son to pray and share the Gospel with two grown men today on the streets of Matamoras. Keep them in your prayers as well that they will find a church home, and come to know the full truth of God's Word! They have a heavy influence of Catholicism. My prayers with them was that God would open up their eyes to see the Truth, and their hearts to receive His Son.
Our next Mission team will be arriving this Saturday from Bear Creek Baptists Church in Houston Texas. They will be going 70 miles south into Mexico, to a town called Las Higuerillas. It is a fishing village on the Coast. Their mission will be to do a V.B.S. Mon-Thurs, along with a construction project. Construction Project: Continue building a Mission facility that will be used for housing our mission teams who want to stay in Mexico. (An awesome opportunity to really see their way of life from a new and closer perspective!)
