NEW MINISTRY!


Hello Family and Friends,

Here we are again updating you with what the Lord has been doing in our family this year! We LOVE to hear back from everyone receiving these emails! So please reply if you have a chance and let us know if you are getting our newsletters! Every Tuesday morning, we pray for every one of you! Send us a message back if you have any specific prayer requests!

WE MOVED! …  AGAIN, BACK TO LA PAZ!
The Lord, once again, has been faithful to answer our prayers. As many of you know, my wife’s job ended November of last year. God immediately opened doors for us to join a new ministry down in La Paz.  This is the same city where I was able to help plant a church three years ago! It took us 20 hours to drive down here, but with your prayers and God’s protection we made it down here safely.  A few days after arriving God provided a home for us!  After 2 months of settling in we have finally been able to visit the beautiful beaches here!  If you and your family ever want to visit, you are more than welcome to say at our house. The Lord has blessed us with an extra bedroom.  Mi Casa es su Casa (my home is your home). 


NEW MINISTRY: MISIONARY SCHOOL IN LA PAZ
We are privileged to be a part of a brand-new ministry, La Huerta, Escuela de Misiones. Which means The Orchard, School of Missions. It will be very similar to a bible college but with a focus in Missionary training! The school will equip Mexican nationals to reach the lost and forgotten people of Mexico and other parts of the world!
We are extremely excited to be part of this ministry. God has fulfilled our desire and answered our prayers to be able to work in ministry together. We have been asked to join the Administration team of the school to help with Student Services. We have been busy planning and getting the school ready for the students to arrive later this year.

Hello all! I figured since I've been a missionary for over two years it was about time to write an update on what the Lord has been doing in Mexico, and in my life personally! Because this is my first newsletter, I want to give a quick background to what I have been up to for the past 2 years here in Mexico. ROSARITO On January 10th, 2014, God called me to Mexico. For six months I was in Rosarito, Mexico, serving at a church as an intern. Alongside six other guys, my responsibility was to clean the church, set up for events and bible studies, and be available to serve whenever possible. This was a really good time of humbling for me. I had been living a comfortable life style in U.S. and then I was living in a tiny apartment with 6 other guys cleaning a church everyday..... At first, I wasn't to excited. I felt like I was wasting my time. But then I realized that God was preparing me for something else. He needed to take those six months for me to realize that I

Blessing Friends and Family,                 It has been so wonderful to serve the Lord here in Mexico! Last month, we celebrated our first year of marriage and I couldn’t thank God enough for bringing my gorgeous wife in to my life. It has been an incredible blessing to be able to serve together. Thank you for sending out your prayers and please send us any prayer request that you may have! Here are some recent pictures that we took here in La Paz. Calvary Chapel La Paz Our Church is Full -  It fills us with so much joy to   see the congregation growing at Calvary Chapel La Paz. The Lord has been faithful to bring new members to our church.

How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone.  James 4:14 NLT Hey Everyone, this month we will like to share something that God spoke to our lives. At the beginning of the month we had plans to meet with a couple from the church to have dinner. As we were waiting outside for them to arrive, suddenly, we heard gunshots. When we thought it was all over, the shooting continued more intensely. Everyone immediately ducked down and got inside the restaurant as fast as they could.  We rushed upstairs, got on our knees and started to pray, asking God for everyone's safety. We later found out that a man was murdered and his wife was rushed in to the hospital. Neither of us had experienced anything like this, but God allowed us to realize that tomorrow is not promised for anyone. Everyday is truly a gift from heaven. We can get so caught up with our busy lives, that we forget to stop and thank
