     On Sunday morning my team came back to the Gateway ( for those who don't know what this is, is one of Adventures in Missions's base in Matamoros) to lead a project in constructions and outreach.


     A team of apr.54 high school students came from Shade Mountain Baptist Church , Birmingham Alabama to build two houses in 4 days, plus to do VBS (Vacation Bible School), street evangelism, different outreaches, like hot dog feeding at the local hospital, showing the Passion of Christ movie tomorrow downtown on a big screen if the Lord wills in this way too:-)


     These teens, oh my! They have the greatest excitement I have ever seen in teenagers! We have a worship/debrief  time every evening when everyone gets the opportunity to share how they got to be Jesus for someone, how the Lord touched them throughout the day.It just blows my mind seeing how american youth too can be sooooo passionate for our Father! My heart definitely goes out for americans and seeing this group's joy, openness and care for the mexicans, for doing everything for the Lord is such a huge huge blessing to me!


      They were sharing how even though many of them do not speak Spanish, God reminded them through these 3 past days how just a smile, a hug, a soccer game can make such a big difference in someone's life. That reminded me of St.Augustine's words that challenge us to share the Gospel all the time and use words only if necessary. 


I will edit some photoes later on this week so that you too can see these sweet faces, who just make me jump for joy, praise the Lord for their hearts. 


For now please please pray if you get to read this before tomorrow 6 PM, so that the Lord would give us great weather, and many people would come to see the movie Passion of Christ and be touched in a mighty way! I am sooo excited!! And will get back to you later!


Thanks very much for your continued faithful prayres!
