An evening of Worship in Mexico

with Pastor David Power

Operation Christmas Child

We were so blessed to worship at the recently built Community Center building by, and also for use by the Church at San Luis, which is a church plant from Church Mexico. We first visited this very impoverished district of San Luis, Mexico in February, 2013; just a piece of sand with a tarp used for worship. In 2015 the church, assisted by volunteers from a church in Colorado helped construct a restroom/shower facility that can be used by this entire community; many who do not have showers or indoor restrooms.  This past year the community center building was completed for the community use, as well an enclosed building for the church to worship in, and also be used for things like Operation Christmas Child, which we were privileged to witness during the Sunday evening that we visited in mid January. Please keep David, Iracela and their family as they minister to this awesome community of believers.

Yuma Free Clinic

Sally, Jose, & Rene - San Luis, Mexico

Had a wonderful time of fellowship with Rene Bustamante, our dear friend from Yuma who organizes several dental, medical, eye, and veterinary clinics throughout Mexico each year. This past year they were able to equip a trailer with exam chairs, counter and sink that is stored in Mexico. This speeds up their time spent at the border, not needing to bring this trailer and much equipment back and forth over the border. Rene, the doctors and volunteers that help at each clinic are able to serve real needs for impoverished areas of Mexico, and share the awesome gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as well. Please keep Rene and his wife Gloria in your prayers as they serve our Lord. The pictures below are from our January visit. Rene, and his friend Jose helped us cross the border, Praise God for Rene, an amazing servant of God.

Grace Center Bible Church - Sierra Leone

GRACE CENTER STARTED THIS YEAR IN THEIR OWN BUILDING!

In December, 2015 the Grace Center Bible Church site was still filled with boulders and a lot of dirt. 

Church site last year...a lot of rock to move!

Lots of dirt & boulders to move!!

January 1st they held their 1st worship service in their new building; no longer needing to rent a community center building, move their chairs and equipment to and from the building every Sunday morning, evening, and Wednesday evening. The ground floor is complete, and will eventually be used as a dormitory for training pastors around Sierra Leone, and neighboring countries. The second floor will be used with classrooms for training and for Aletheia Ministry offices, and the top floor will be the church and large group gathering area. But for now, just to have a secure place they can call their own, seeing how far they've come from last year.  Praise almighty God :). 

Ground floor is complete!
