Mission Mexico Day 3

Just wanted to tell you a little bit about yesterday before we take off for the day because it was an incredible day.

1. We finished a total EXTREME MAKEOVER of a house for a husband and wife who are in the mid 90's. The were the founders of the churches we are working with. Their home literally had holes all over the outside that we cemented, broken windows not cracked broken that we took out and replaced, and we painted the entire outside of the home.

2. We went to a children's home where 250 plus kids live. These are not orphans but they are kids whose parents make such little money that the parents literally work all day and all night to have nothing. We had the chance to play games with the kids, sing, beat the stuffing out of a pinyata, and just love on them.

3. Last night was the second night of doing a church service in the park. Linda and Hahn shared their stories on how they came to Christ, and was one of two preachers to speak. We saw God work in amazing ways with people being saved and others recommitting their lives to Jesus.

There were so many highlights throughout the day but i will share one very cool one. During the worship in the park the people were very quite and almost disconnected with what was going on, then all of the sudden I saw our GRANITE UNITED team step out and walk up in front of everybody and begin to just worship. It was a beautiful sight and within minutes the place was electrified, but here is the highlight. During the invitation a woman came forward and was called to the platform and she was asked why she had come. She said when I saw the JOY in those people singing and dancing I knew I did not have what they had, and she gave her heart to Jesus. How awesome is that!

Okay thats it for now time for me to talk to Christy, another highlight of my day!!!!!!!!
