DAY 2

It was a great day 2 in Mazatlan for the team today, only adding to the expectation of what the LORD is going to do the rest of our time here! 

This morning we went to the red light district of the city where there is a ministry set up to take care of the children of prostitutes.  While there, we were able to minister to the ninos by not only feeding them breakfast and giving them gifts, but also providing a puppet show that shared the gospel in a tangible way.  Many kids said they wanted to know JESUS in a more personal way which excited us for the rest of the day!

After leaving the red light district we headed to Espirtu y Verdad's new church building they are constructing and helped them paint the prayer room.  By doing this we were able to bless the church in a huge way because they wanted to do this before the rainy season hit, and they had no time to do it without our help.  It was a good opportunity for the team to get our hands dirty on the mission field and help the church here in a visible way.

Finally tonight we were able to join the youth group for their weekly worship service they have together.  It was an amazing time of exciting worship and prayer preparing for our camp next week.  We really saw the excitement the students here have for our upcoming camp, and this made our team all the more excited.

Please continue to pray for our team as we minister here in Mexico! Tomorrow be praying for us as we attend two different services, and minister to the outer village of Elota!
