a little bit of Nogales...

Ok...so we left on June 12th for Nogales, MX. its been a long time since i have felt Gods calling so strongly to a place...and by God's grace, we made it there! and it was safe, no one got hurt, no one got sick, no one got in a fight, it was AMAZING. and we were able to really focus on the ministry. God used this trip to make Him look goooood...:)
and we were so so so blessed by the wonderful ppl of Nogales. they have SUCH a passion for God and for the people they interact with...its so cool to see.
PPM led us around and we were able to perform the Project twice, and other dramas at least once every day. we also got to do some painting and cement laying.
such a cool time. here are some pictures so you can get just a little glimpse into our time there!!!

this is the church part of our group worked at during the days, and we also attended a service there and performed The Project there as well.

at one of the churches...just playing soccer on the top of a hill...

Mark introducing the team along with our wonderful translator and PPM staff, Cecilia.

the town surrounding Monte Hebron church.

We also got to visit a children's home a couple times...it was such a great time with the kids. we got to do dramas and crafts and play games. such a blessing

KABLINKA w/Florentino = an interesting time.

La Casa Se Quema w/ some of the girls...love it. Elizabet (a mexican friend) played the part of the "english speaking neighbor"...very convincing...haha so fun.

we finally did this with them...now we are popular...

back at Dios Con Nosotros church, doing crafts with the kids!

Kablinka again! :)

The Project!!!

This is the seminary we stayed at for the week

our lovely PPM ladies...angie, danielle, cecilia

group time!!! such a great group...we really just grew together over the week and became just like a family...it was so so fun.

the view from the top of the hill...so good. the first night there, we all went up there and had a time of intercession over Nogales with this as our view. so amazing.

documentary!

clearly fans of the Mexico team...

ill write more im sure on all this...just wanted to get some pics up!!!

lesson learned...God is faithful. If He calls...answer....even if it seems crazy and dangerous - because He knows. and He is in control.

and its so amazing to see what He is doing...

thank you God for a GREAT trip and an awesome team and for all that is still to come!
