The team is back on US soil with plenty of stories memories to share. Pray for safe travel and no traffic.
They will be back at MO2 by 6:30 pm.
The team had an incredible first full day of ministry yesterday. They got their hands dirty painting at Door of Faith Orphanage. And they got to do ministry as Jesus would simply in being with other people. The time the team spent with the children of Door of Faith Orphanage was priceless. Smiles, hugs and laughter abounded. They even experienced a unique time of relationship building in the evening as they worked at Rancho Sordo Mudo. What an eye-opening experience for the team as they ministered to deaf children who attend this boarding school. It was an action-packed day of ministry, for sure.
Now the team is up and at em again. The breakfast team arose bright and early to make a delicious french toast meal for the team and the children of Door of Faith. It was a YUMMY start to the day. As we speak, the team is praising God in Ensenada, Mexico. Pray that their worship experience continues to open their hearts, eyes and minds to all that God has in store for them today. Looking forward to another incredible, life-changing report later today.
Hooray! The SK 2014 Mexico PEACE Team officially arrived to their destination at 6:15 pm this evening. A little behind "schedule", but let's be honest, is there really a schedule on a PEACE trip?!?! :) Seriously, though, the team arrived in great spirits eager to eat and begin their PREPARATION (their first night's theme/focus). God is speaking through Cortney (as we speak) as she challenges the students to prepare their hearts, minds and souls for His ministry that lies ahead this weekend. Pray for a great night's sleep and that the PREPARATION for what God has in store begins NOW!
And they are OFF. The SK 2014 Mexico PEACE Team is on the road headed south-of-the-border. They have reached their final US potty stop to stretch and get ready to enter Mexico. Pray for safe travels as they prepare for what God has in store for them this action-packed weekend. Pray that their hearts and minds can remain distraction-free as they focus on His mission for them. Pray that lives are changed in and through the team.
This will be the "official" site for any and all updates on the 2014 Saddleback Kids Mexico PEACE Trip. Please feel free to join us on Friday, May 23rd at 12:30 pm in the MO2 Parking Lot of Saddleback Church as we commission our 40-person team. Right now, lift up in prayer everyone's health physically, mentally, emotionally and relationally as we prepare to do mighty things in His name. It will be an unforgettable Memorial Day weekend for this team.
