Heavenly Highlights

1 Peter 2:9
"But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light."


(Our last day at YWAM-Ensenada)

Dear Family & Friends,

We are grateful to be back. This past Sunday, some of our team members were able to share their Mexico Missions experience at the youth service.

Here are some of the Highlights from our missions trip:

Dramas & Songs
Each of us were able to learn multiple dramas and Spanish songs and use them at our outreaches.



(For the "Good Samaritan" Drama, our guys were so good at the training, that they literally tore up Justin's socks. Now that's real "acting.")


(Here's "Jesus Is Our Superhero" at one of our very 1st outreaches)

Work Project#1
We helped Pastor Carolos & his wife Alma-Rosa at their church-Puerta del Cielo with a VBS program & a painting project. It was wonderful to see team members use their Spanish.

(BEFORE: The painting & weeding)

(AFTER)

Work Project #2
We assisted Pastor Pacifico (who is a "roofer" by trade) in replacing a roof for a lady by the name of Patricia & her disabled husband.
(Talk about being on a "hot tin roof."
Pastor Pacifico worked so fast)

 (BEFORE: we tore off the plastic covering)

(AFTER: A nice rolled roof)

Orphanage
Our team members were having so much fun and loving on the children. 


Cleanest Award
Out of all the dorm rooms (Guys & Gals), we won for the cleanest room. Our CCIC girls were able to bring home a Gigiantic bag of Cheetos. Try bringing that through the Mexican border.


Thank you to our adult leaders: 
Gene Lee, Kirstie Lee & Sarah Lee for their care & love on this trip. 
As well as our YWAM Staff: Corrin ParĂ©, Danny Lloyd-Jones & Nahely Vasquez.
They were right there with us all "leading by example."






Last but not least, thank you Pastor O for leading us on this trip to Mexico and cultivating in all of us the "heart of compassion with Christ."

To all our supporters, thank you for your support and prayers. We have definitely returned with a lot more compassion for the "lost."Thank you for going on this "adventure" with us.
