Dear friend and family,
It is always an honor for us to be able to share the good things that are happening here in Mexico on the mountain in Oaxaca, last weekend we had our spiritual retreat with our youth from all the towns that we are visiting, we had a really good time , we got to know more all our youth and we were able to have a really good experience and we know now how can we help them in their walk with the Lord, the purpose for us to have this time with them was that they know that we are there for them and that we want to be a part of their lives. We believe that this new generation that is coming after us and we want to prepare them for what is coming in their lives. we were able to praise the Lord in one body and have a time of learning from the bible and share something from our lives, some of this youth the had their first experience in a retreat and it was really good for them. We had the chance to pray for some of the that they have some problems, we believe that God used this time in many ways for the benefit of their lives. the main teaching was how to keep up the good sprit of God and How God want us to act with others being as a Christians, I was able to share with them part of my life and how I become a Christian and how God can used difficult situations for His kingdom, we also have a special time of prayer for all of you we pray that God will bless you and your families, they what you to know that here you have a family that it is pray for you and if you have any special need of pray you can let us know and we can get as a group and pray for you. we also had the chance to celebrated Esther´s birthday with them and have a cake as a family in Christ, Esther was able to cook for us and to teach some of the girls to do PICADIDO, she also was able to read a chapter from the bible. Before we finish the retreat we had a time with our youth and they told me something that makes me feel good they want you to know that you are making a differences in their lives and they feel that you care for their walk with God, we thank you for all the you are doing for us and for the people from LA MIXTECA our prayer is that God will reward you here and in heaven.
Know that we love you and pray for your lives!
