July II

Last week was another amazing week!! We had a team here from San Jose, CA. The YUGO staff and interns also formed a team and ministered to Iglesia Torre Fuerte. All in all a tremendous week of children's, sports and women's ministries. Here is the highlight video from the week:

Brittany has done a great job learning to use the Evangicube, and had the opportunity on Thursday to present the gospel to the children, with a translator of course. William also practiced a lot, but has not gotten the chance to present it yet.

This week we are spending a lot of time preparing for our build the first week of August. If you have not met the family we will be building for, please take a few minutes and check out our previous blog entry. This will be Ron's first build since the home building ministry officially began, so he is going through sets of house plans, material lists, etc. to figure out exactly how he would like to do things. We will update more at the end of this week.

Meet the Family

The week of August 1st we will be building a home for a local Mexican family.  We'd like to share a short video and introduce them to you. 

The father has been out of work for a few weeks. He may have a lead on a new job, but it wouldn’t start until about August. This family of six – soon to be seven - lives in a house that is 16x16, made of old garage doors and has a dirt floor. The three older children sleep on the bed, leaving only floor space for mom, dad and the little one. The land for the new home been prepped and leveled by Sr. Duran, and the foundation will be poured soon.

Please pray for the Duran family and the team from Fort Atkinson, WI that will be building for and sharing their testimonies with them.  If you have a group that would like to come, build a home and share Christ with a Mexican family in need, please send us a message.

June IV - July I

Wow, I can't believe it's July already!  The last week of June was awesome!!  We had a team from California that week,  The staff and interns also did an outreach to a local church with the worship band that was here.
