Honor Your Father…

Honor your father and your mother… Exodus 20:12

Father’s Day is a big deal in Mexico (as was Mother’s day). Dia de Padre will be celebrated tomorrow, June 16th here in Mexico, same day as the US. Our Marcos 10:14 kids club activities this past week (June 13th) helped the 70 or so children focus not only on their heavenly Father but also on their earthly fathers.

The kids especially enjoyed making the “super hero” craft to give to their dads. It was a candy bar in a cape, with a message from the kids, and a Bible verse (we are not sure how many of the candy bars actually made it home).

The Lord has blessed us with a number of faithful volunteers to help manage the every increasing group of children who come each week. We are only able to keep this ministry going because of your financial support and prayers. THANK YOU and May God receive ALL the GLORY!

In Awe of Our Lord

God is so good!! We should never be amazed at His mighty works but we really are in AWE. His desire is for the children to be brought up in His word and that is why He continues to send the children to club week after week.

The kids have been learning about committing their ways to the Lord, trusting in Him. Psalm 37:5; All the Lord spoke to the house Israel came to pass- Joshua 21:45,  Anyone who believe in Jesus has life everlasting-John 6:47-His promises; And Psalm 130:1,2 Out of the depths I have cried to you, O Lord; Lord hear my voice! Let Your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications – the Lord hears our prayers/our cries.

Each lesson has a craft project that goes along with the study. The kids enjoy this time of Bible study, memorizing verses, craft time and playing games. And they are also provided a meal. This week (June 6th) was the three month birthday celebration for April, May and June. And the kids were treated with cupcakes and we took a photo of the children that had birthdays during this time.

It takes a lot of work and preparation to keep club going week after week and we could not do it without our faithful volunteers: Pastor Rey, Lulu, teacher Ana, Edith, Zaira, Maria, Mariaa and many others. THANK YOU ALL! Your work does not go unseen by us or by Jesus! May the Lord bless you! Thank you to all who give and pray, without your love and support, this ministry would not be possible. We love you and God loves you! We are so humbled to a part of what God is doing in Mexico. May the work of the Lord continue in Jesus name!

Worship in Palmito

A small group of Christians from Getsemani Church in Galeana, NL, Mexico traveled with True Path Ministry in their van to Palmito. It is a small farm community in the mountains about an hour’s drive away. Pastor Ruben, who is 87 years old, has asked for help to revive the Christian Church. There is a small but faithful group who come to services whenever Pastor Ruben is town.

Some time back we left Missionary Bibles and in another visit noticed that several were worn out. True Path Ministry replaced the paperback Bibles with a more durable bound version (see New Bibles in Palmito and The Word in Palmito).

Arlen (Stephen’s brother) was on hand to give out candy to the kids who were at the service. They were all smiles.

New Restroom Door and Plumbing Improvements

There have been several recent improvements at the new church building site for Getsemani Church in Galeana, NL, Mexico. There is now a wooden restroom door, improved plumbing, new restroom lighting and fresh concrete steps in place.

Stephen and Arlen (Stephen’s brother) installed a door frame and hung a wooden door on the entry to the restroom. They improved the plumbing with a PVC water line, main water valve, water facets and valves at the two toilet locations. The brothers also wired in an LED fixture and two compact fluorescent lights in the restroom.

A very good concrete workman and a volunteer from the church formed up and poured steps by the main entry door way. (An interesting side note: in Mexico the wood forms for the concrete are rented). The church also has a new piece of property that will provide ample parking once the area is cleared of brush, rocks and cactus.

Please keep this church project for the Lord in your prayers as there is still much to do before construction will be complete.

There was only a cloth curtain over the restroom entry before we installed the new door.
