This morning we went to a lumber yard where we helped load up cars, trucks, vans etc of local Mexican pastors to take back to their members.  These items are donated from different locations and people.  Many pallets of items as well as containers of items.  Unfortunately today there were limited items…each church received 6 cases of soda (8 bottles a case), 3 cases of small juices and 1 box of canned goods. 

These pastors are so appreciative of what they receive.  The lumber yard is owned by the same man who you will see later that does the homeless meals ministry.  This man (Randy) is a wonderful example for us all.

       

We also helped clean up all the trash from the pallets and the items that are damaged.

      

Next we prepared items for VBS which we will be running in Wednesday in Blanca Navidad.  It took the afternoon to get everything ready to go.

 

In the evening we headed of to serve the homeless.  This experience was amazing.  Our young people inspired us all.  It was exciting to see some of them have a heart for this ministry.  To see them praying for total strangers, and interacting with them was truely a blessing for us all.

       

As you can see it was an exhausting, but blessed day.  We returned back to our camp site at 9:30, had dinner, chapel and then off to bed.
