Pie in the face!

An amazing children's ministry in Michigan (from Bethany Assembly of God) did a fundraiser for missions (and my work here in Mexico) at the beginging of the year. The preschoolers had to bring in their pennies and if they raised a certain amount of money they would get a pie in the face for their two teachers and their pastor!

Well they did it! It is amazing to see little people care so much about reaching people for Jesus (I am going to assume none of thier motivation was based around pies in the face, right Chris?!?)!

Thank you kids from Bethany Assembly!



In other news I am heading (with the interns) to San Miguel del Allende today! From the looks of it (thanks Google) it is a beautiful city with lots of culture!

13 more wheelchairs!

Today we were able to go to the special needs school, which happens to be very close to my house to give away even more wheelchairs!

We got a tour of this school and then did the presentation. This time it just involved saying the names of the students or person getting the chairs, shared the gospel and hung out some!

I love that we can meet a need in our community!

31 Baptized!

Yesterday we had the amazing opportunit to see 31 people from both chuch plants get baptized! It is amazing to see lives changed with the amazing power of Jesus.... we see it all of the time here in Ixtapaluca. It was encouraging to watch these young christians take that step to be baptized!

I can not wait to see how God uses these amazing men and woman (and some youth) to further His kingdom! =)

For the baptizms we went to a water park an hour and a half or so away!

We started the day with some worship, a sermon and testimonies of why they wanted to get baptized. Finally, we headedto the pool! The afternoon was full of lots of food, swimming, basketball etc!

Just a little fun!

Last night we had a youth party in the POURING rain!

There was a photobooth, a wii, kids playing in the rain, hot dogs, chips, laughing, a small food fight and toooooo much rain!

More Wheelchairs Needed?

So next friday June 30th we are set to have ANOTHER wheelchair outreach in our little community!!

If you missed the blogs about the first one... it was pretty incredible. Check it out here... or go to Rod's blog!

But, we need to purchase 15 more wheelchiars in order to do that! We are lacking about $200 to buy them! (it is around $13 per chair which covers the import fees!).

If you are willing to help out, e-mail me at tbarham@caminoglobal.org!
