Last Night

OH... MY GOD!
That phrase has been so overused and denigrated over the last several years that it has lost much of it's awe - except in a Monterrey Mexico tonight where God was in the House! After some praise worship we undertook a ceremony in washing each other's feet - to say thanks, to say sorry, to say I love you as a brother/sister in Christ. Symbolic of Jesus washing the disciples feet-as told in John 13- to show that He came to serve and as his followers, so too are we. It was hugely emotional as these kids have poured out their hearts and souls all week to the kids we've served and to each other.

That followed by 7 (SEVEN) Baptisms that went on into the wee hours of the morning at our pool here at LDM. Turning their allegiance and lives over to Jesus Christ tonight were:

Each of our kids got a celebration by their friends similar to this one!!


WHAT A NIGHT...WHAT A WEEK.... WHAT A GROUP OF KIDS...

WHAT A GOD WE SERVE!

We are Northbound in now only a few hours so pray for a safe return as we look forward to heading home!

Thursday 6/26 - Daytime and dinner

Another great day with the two groups splitting again today - Group one going to a National Forest/Park named Estanzuela with the kids from El Retiro to do some hiking and have a birthday party for some of their children.




Group 2 flip flopped and got to hook up with the kids out at Imperial De Amor where group one had been the last few days. A lot of discussions going on about checking in with "my kid(s) " from group one to group two prior to us heading over there. Group 2 did a little work - painting and cleaning- prior to playing with the kids. Possibly the best part of the day was being sung to with such love and enthusiasm by the whole group of kids and caregivers. We couldn't help but to cheer wildly.





We got back to LDM in time to do a little shopping at the local "market" and even get a little bit dressed up before heading into town to eat the most wonderful concoction of food ever invented called "Taco Fede's" . Rumor has it that this place is still on Ryan Massey's speed dial - even at home! Some great eating and a great time had with everyone. THEN - it was back to LDM for worship and baptisms!! Yea God!!
