Hello everyone!
We just wanted to update you all on what's been going on since our last blog post... a lot! The Lord has blessed us with an awesome Christmas, a beautiful wedding( yay, we love being married!), and the opportunity to serve at our home church here in Las Vegas while raising support for Mexico. We're praying that these first months of 2010 have been a blessing for you all as well :).
While here in Las Vegas, it has been such a blessing to serve at CC Spring Valley. The Lord has really been stretching us by giving us the opportunity to serve in different ministries at the church. Angelina has been helping wherever needed, whether it be in the childrens' ministry, accounting, or at the front desk, and Brennan has been serving on the facilities crew learning a lot of new things like patching roofs and fixing toilets. It has really been such an awesome experience for us both and we're excited to see how the Lord may use all the things He has been teaching us(maybe there will be roofs and toilets needing to be fixed in our near future? :D We can't wait to see!)
(Update: We did actually have to fix our toilet at home! Thanks Lord :D)
Praise God! We're still moving forward with the plans to move to La Gloria, Mexico in mid-March, and in the next few weeks we are so excited to get to be part of a trip there that the Calvary Chapel Christian School is taking for their missions week. We can't wait to update you all with pictures and stories of what the Lord is currently doing there.
During this short trip we will actually be staying where we hope to be living soon- at the Calvary Chapel Training Center in La Gloria. If God wills, in mid-March we will moving there to serve as students, learning how to eventually direct the base ourselves. The current ministries at CCTC include housing and planning for the short-term teams, providing space for churches and Bible studies, and facilitating an after school program for children where they can get help with homework, have a small meal and, most importantly, learn about Jesus. We're so excited for the blessing it will be to be a part of what the Lord is doing there and to get to know the children and people of Mexico.
We are still praying, however, for those whom God has prepared to send us. While the most valuable support is prayer, there is a need for a certain number of people to give $10, $15, $20 or more a month to support us as we seek to do His work. This will fund our living on the base and ministering while in Mexico. Please pray for His guidance and our obedience to His will for which we know and trust that He is so faithful to provide.
Love you all and God Bless,
Brennan and Angelina
