Naco Mission team

Good Evening Church Family,

We have had a most productive day here in Naco as well as in Mexico. I feel truly blessed to be a part of what God is doing out here. There are no words to describe the feeling you have when you know you have been obedient to God's calling. He is sooooo good. Today we started VBS in mexico. Entering the village today I could not help but feel humbled by the lives the people live. I am amazed at the strength and courage these people have and the faith that they have in "cristo" just for their daily needs. The language barrier was challenging at times but through it all the message and Gods love was felt by all. The children were a joy to be around and we learned a few new dance moves . We cannot wait to see what tomorrow brings. Thank you for your prayers and your love.

Be Thankful for the Lord our God has blessed all and everything!!!!!!!!!

Hello Naco Team! I'm so happy that all is going well and God is continually working through you to minister to those in Cuatehmoc and Naco. Melissa, I truly understand that feeling of humility when you see the conditions that others have to live under. It's very hard to comprehend until you see it first hand. But the thing that impacted me most was how happy the children were there. It just reinforced the fact that we don't need 'things' to be happy, just family and the love of God. I'm so glad you've had an opportunity to see it firsthand.

Blessings to all of you!
Rita and Jim
