Elwood, Jeff & Ryan recently went to Mexico on a short missions trip. 12 hour drive from Frisco. Leave in the early morning you can arrive in time for prayer meeting!
Jeff & some friends
They were working on constructing a church in Chihuahua
~ a team from Oklahoma was heading up this project.
It's coming along
The roof is just about finished ~ then add the tin.
Elwood said he has never seen poverty like this. Believe it or not, this is a home with a fence around it that is made of the inside of a boxspring. Every home has a fence around it ~ most with barb wire or razor wire or glass schards on top.
A close-up view
A home... glad they have their dish up.
Another home with their wired fence
The town.
Shopping anyone?
Or soccer?
A gathering where they are sharing the good news of Jesus Christ.
God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him
we might become the righteousness of God.
2 Corinthians 5:21
The church in Aldama where Jeff preached on Sunday morning.
He preached in Spanish ~ then translated for the English speakers.
Elwood said they only sang choruses ~ no hymns.
The choruses were of the 70's/80's vintage
Elwood and the Sunday School teacher.
This is the reentry point back into the USA.
This arm detechs large amounts of cash... and thus finds drugs.
