Buenes Noches iglesia familia!

Today was absolutely AWESOME!!! We started out by prayer walking around the community of Naco. We prayed that God would move in the hearts of the lost, that He would knock down social and racial barriers, and that God would soften their hearts to be open to hearing the Word. We had a fabulous lunch of hot tamales and "Glory Salsa" (compliments of Tim).

Then, off to Cuahatamoc where we got to spend some sweet time with some beautiful chicos. We brought bubbles for the children, and it was so great to see how happy they were with something so simple. This is such a great opportunity to reach people for Christ and show God's love. We were once told, "If not now, when? And, if not me, who?" We can't sit back and just expect God's work to get done. Everyday is a chance to reach the lost.

After VBS in Mexico, we headed back to Naco for a bible study. BJ led a study with the adults while Jennifer led a youth bible study about listening to God and trusting His will. Overall it was a thrilling day!!! We look forward to what tomorrow will bring.

Stay Beautiful Smitville,
Ash and Jess

It sounds like God is working on some pretty neat ways there! I'm so glad each of you listened to the call to go! Your lives will be deeply blessed because of it! Wish I was there to share in the blessing!
