Gift of Mobility.



Over the past couple years we have had the amazing privilege to hand out wheelchairs to the people who need them most.
You can read some more about it... here, here and here! =0)

We have the opportunity to purchase 50 more wheelchairs soon, but we need your help with the finances. 
Wheelchairs are about $20 USD per chair. 

This means FIFTY MORE PEOPLE COULD RECEIVE THE GIFT OF MOBILITY!!!

If you are willing to sponsor one or ten or 100 wheelchairs, let me know!

Orphanage

A couple months ago I got the opportunity to start taking the youth group to an orphanage here in Ixtapaluca. 

Come to find out, its actually two different houses. One here in Ixtapaluca and the other one about twenty minutes away. 

It is a fun new outreach, to hang out with these kiddos! I have the privilege to teach english to the junior and senior high kids every Wednesday and hang out and play (and give a little bible story) every other Saturday. 

Turns out that the guy who runs the place was a taxi driver when he saw the need for a place for kids who are homeless. That has turned into what they have now. They live in bare bones facility and completely live by faith, even for their next meal. 

(pictures below)

They were recently given land to build a proper orphanage. Please join us in prayer that God will give them the money needed to build.

For sure, groups coming down will probably have the opportunity to come and hang out with these kiddos!

And Classes Have Begun!

Last week was the first week of community center classes in Las Palmas!

Even with lots of rain and a holiday, it was a great week! =0)

Please be in prayer for the classes, bible study and youth gatherings in this neighborhood. We would love to start seeing believers and eventually a church!

Tiempo de Vivir- Sponsor a Month!

Hello All!

In one week we begin the next block of classes here in Las Palmas! It will be the second block in the new community center (check out the schedule below). We also will have (hopefully) the beginning of a bible study on Wednesday evenings and (hopefully) the beginning of a youth group on Friday evenings starting in October. 

The goal: A new church! 


We were super fortunate to have a very generous couple donate rent for this year. But, in a few months the missionaries will have to cover it. It is a little less than $200 USD a month. I am looking for 12 people who would like to "sponsor" a month of community center rent for 2016. 

If this is something you, or your small group, or your church would like to do... let me know. And you can donate here, the community center project!
