We walked around the property in groups, praying for the pastor, his church, and for God to move mightily. Then, we met around the tree he teaches under, and prayed for his church.
Next, we helped out with a local kids program near by. We told the story of David and Goliath and shared a skit with the kids giving the gospel message! Our students did so good on their skit! After the skit, we had a variety of games being played. And even though there is a language barrier, there is one language that needs no interpretations. Laughter. The sound of a child’s laugh melts my heart every time I hear it. And that room was filled with smiles and laughter. My heart was overflowing with joy. I was at peace. I was thankful.
Then, we did some fun stuff with our students. We went and did a scavenger hunt at one of the local markets. The kids had to find a handful of items as a team. It was quite entertaining to watch them try and pronounce everything in Spanish. But, they did surprisingly well! I was such a good time of fellowship with Brennan and the team!
I’m so not ready to leave on Monday. There is something about being here in Mexico that's so captivating. I don’t know if its the people, or the culture. There’s something about this place that I absolutely adore. Being here the week that we have, quite honestly just hasn't been enough! Tomorrow is our last day of ministry! WHAT? Where on earth did the time go? It feels as though we just arrived! I’ve been so blessed to be on this trip and spend time with everyone on our team. My heart is full.
