Greetings children of God!
“I do not pray for these alone, but also for those who will believe in Me through their word; that they all may be one, as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be one in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. And the glory which You gave Me I have given them, that they may be one just as We are one: I in them, and You in Me; that they may be made perfect in one, and that the world may know that You have sent Me, and have loved them as You have loved Me.
John 17:20-23 NKJV Amen!
So that the world will know that we are ONE. One in Christ! That when they see us they see Christ in us. Not of our own works. We must be about our Father's business. Amen! Our Father God :)

Dee and Ron and their Pastor from Oregon came down to help us and celebrate. Dee lead the kids in a craft. She got these giant pine cones from her travels in Canada. It was lots of fun for the youth.

Ruben from Nevada came down along with Donna, Susan, Margie and Sherry from Bishop Ca. We were blessed to have their help and also the fellowship. Saturday was the Christmas event. We had approximately 130 people attend. The event went really well. We served an authentic Australian meal. The sausage sizzle was back again. Raul helped us cook the food. It was the sausage on a piece of white bread with ketchup and grilled onions. It is so simple that is delicious. Thank you Rain for help with the salads and Lupe for help with the drinks. All were happy with the food. Ernesto and Elena brought the homemade donuts 300. Yay!

We love being able to bring the body of Christ together in one place. We invited many different churches in our community. It definitely was a team effort. Jose from the men's house along with ladies from team Mexico plus the youth all helped with decorations.

Last but not least were the candy bags, beanies, gloves, scarves, socks, and warm blankets. The guys from Lolo's and Gustavo's sober living programs helped with the parking lot and the bouncy house. All of the team helped with clean up. We also had our dentist that showed up dressed like the Grinch to help hand out the candy. Praise report, is that the lady who runs the facility we rented just came to the Lord. We have been so blessed by the Lord. So many people involved and so many lives touched by His love.

Sunday we took the group to Pastor Mere's church here in Cerro Azul. After that we headed out to the landfill to hand out the 200 PB&J sandwiches we made along with blankets and beanies and We also had a generous donation of 200 hygine kits. Plus the most important part we got to pray for the people.
People actually ask us for prayer now when we come into the landfill.
Thank you to all who pray for and support us. Also thank you to those who come down to help us. Thank you team Mexico for your continued help and support and for all of your hearts. To love them as Jesus loves us. God is Love 💞✝️
