Community Outreach!

We are committed to feeding the homeless in 1000 Palms area EVERY THURSDAY with the Narrow Door Ministry!  Let me know when you can help, let's do what we are commanded to do - feed the hungry.  

Mexico Orphanage Outreach!

Here are a few pictures from our trip to the Orphanage and of the homes being built for those in need in La Mision. 

Some of the beautiful dorm rooms for the 120 children at the orphanage.

 The new house built for a family of 5 who were living in 1 small room in their grandfather's home.

 Julie blowing bubbles with my husband Fred...or Fredrico as she called him!

 It took everything I had not to bring this baby home with me!

 Here's an example of the home a family lived in prior to new home below!

The team who built 4 homes in two weeks...all from a church in Iowa!  They have done this for 12 years straight and we loved getting to know them.

We Are Family....
The Donovans have asked for prayer for one of  their extended family in the loss of their 13 year old son Dawyson. Just yesterday the Donovan's daughter lost her father-in-law of an unexpected heart attack.  This family needs comfort and peace that can only come from our Heavenly Father. 

Continue to pray for Evangeline St. Clair doing missionary work in the Philippines and add Jim & Annie Leonovich who are doing missionary work in the Ukraine!  We pray the Lord will use all of them to disciple many and bring glory to God through their work.
