Greetings children of God, love and blessings to all of you who read this blog update. The Lord has been working overtime in our region. We have been blessed with many groups and many events. I am going to do my best to recap the last few months for you. Frank and I have been so blessed by our family in Christ. More brothers and sisters for us to love and share the Love of Jesus with them. The pictures above are from the group from Bishop that came in March. We had two church services and Ken Cluff shared a message at the rehab center in Tecate which recently got a new roof and the common area is a huge blessing for them to hold services and meetings. The power of the Lord was in full force many were set free and healed.

Lifepointe church from Elk Grove Ca came down the week before Easter and they built two homes and held a vacation bible school in the community of Ojo de Agua which is between Tecate and Tijuana. Frank and I stayed with them for the week and helped with the vacation bible school. They come every year and build last year they built a church. We love our Lifepointe family and so look forward to working with them every year.

Amazing testimony about Karen she has been suffering with fibromyalgia for 17 years, with chronic pain. She received healing on this trip and she has been pain free ever since. God places the people in our paths that we can bless and pray for and sow into their lives with the Love and healing of our Father.

We had the privilege of hosting Pastor Steve Sorensen and his wife Marti from JPL bible church in Rancho Mirage. Steve and Marty are Nicole and Fernando's Pastors from the United States.  Nicole and Fernando are part of the ministry down here. We have been blessed with a team of amazing people here in Mexico to serve with, to expand the Kingdom of God!!

Also in April a group came down from Bishop to hold a women's conference and two men's meetings. We were blessed by these amazing people. Donna Smalley came down and taught the ladies a class on flagging and it was amazing the ladies loved it. Vickie French shared a beautiful message along with our  amazing friend Paula Friedrichsen who finished the day out for us. I also want to thank all of the ladies who stepped up from the church Jehova es mi Pastor to make this day possible. The food, music, the beautiful ladies who helped us with translating the messages all of it went so beautifully. I believe this will be the first of many!!

Beautiful day
Let's not forget the men David Kuznitz from Bishop did such a wonderful job at the rehab center with the men and also held an additional men's meeting at Hosanna church in Cerro Azul.

Pastor-Apostle Tim Kurtz came down last week with his wife Kim along with Rachel and Stacia from his church in Yuba City. Bringing along with them Luis and Rossi Mercedes leaders-Apostles from the Sacramento Area. We were so blessed again by this wonderful group. They requested to meet with leaders in the Tecate area. Frank made many phone calls to set up these meetings. We met with three different sets of leaders. We were able to have a church service at the landfill with Pastor Martin. Along with a beautiful service at Jehova es mi Pastor with Luis and Rossi. The Lord is connecting us with some amazing people and He truly is expanding His Kingdom through these relationships.

Last but no least last weekend we took a group from Nevada to the landfill and we served posole to the people that live there. There is a community of around 200 people that live in the landfill. My  husband Frank was rescued from that same landfill ten years ago. So he was our open door to going back in there to show these people who have given up that there is hope and His name is Jesus. These kids touched my heart and ten years later there are still people there that know Frank and he is such a huge inspiration to them. There is a small school there also and we were invited to help there in a couple of weeks. A missionary friend of ours is running it. God has us right where He wants us and we listen and pray and follow His lead. Also a big thanks to our friend Susanna from helping hands in Tijuana for making the posole and thanks to those of you who donated for us to purchase the supplies.
