Hello Church!

We have finished our retreat and ministries well. It has been a very tiring but full week and it has been a great blessing to see the unexpected fingerprints of God all over our time here in Cuernavaca. We are really looking forward to debriefing as a team and to share in each others blessings and testimonies. 

Once again, we started off the day with a group devotional with the local youth kids.

Soon after, we headed to Tepoztlan, a tourist town with a ruin on top of the mountain. It was about two miles of vertical climb up and we were all able to finish the hike up the mountain. We were so thankful and glad that no one was left behind.

On top of this ruin, where we were told that it was a possible site for human sacrifices in the past, we gathered together to pray. We prayed for Mexico, Emmanuel Presbyterian church, for the strongholds to be shattered in the name of Jesus Christ.

After climbing down this mountain, we went in to the town square to eat lunch and get ready for the gospel presentation, body worship and skit. Though we didn't have the permit necessary to do public presentations, we decided to step out in faith and see what God would do. 

After the gospel presentations, we went around and passed out the gospel tracks that has both English and Spanish. While some students were able to communicate the message of the gospel, some students just handed out the tracks. Despite the fact that we had language barriers and were not trained to use the 4 Spiritual Laws in the most efficient way, we know that God still used our students' attempts. 

Teacher Will praying after sharing.

As we were leaving, we saw one gentleman reading one of the tracks that we passed out. May the Lord bring salvation upon the people that we encountered today!! 

We finished the day at the town square with the famous ice cream that missionaries bought us!

We will be getting on the airplane less than 12 hours from now. We are looking forward to seeing everyone back home and sharing all that God has done. 

Prayer Requests

1) That everything will go smoothly at the airport. Working with our airline has been nothing short of challenge. Also pray that we will be able to get home without anyone getting sick. Our team is physically very tired from long days throughout the week. 

2) That our team will be able to understand and be able to take home what God has done in their lives and through our team so that we can share in the blessing that we have received with the church family back home. 

See You All Soon!!
