We are in El Paso!!

After a long day of travel (that began at 3:00 this morning), we have made it to El Paso, Texas. The students are all pretty tired but they have had great attitudes and I am so proud of them. Tonight we are staying at Park Hills Christian Church in El Paso and crossing the border at 7:00 a.m. tomorrow. Tomorrow we will be meeting up with our Casas Por Cristo rep, crossing in to Mexico through New Mexico and begin laying the foundation for the home. We had a great night of prayer and worship last night and we can feel your prayer support.

Specific Prayer needs:
-That we would get some good rest tonight and be charged up for the first day tomorrow.
-Unity with the group. I know that this is an area that Satan is going to be on the attack with our group.
-For the family we are building for. Just think, tonight they are thinking about the home they are about to have.

Thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers. We will continue to update the blog while we are in Juarez.

Matt

    Matt & Anne, We know God is using you and the students in a very special way this week. We are praying for the group, Juarez and the family receiving the house. Have a great week! Tim, Pam and Megan Anderson

    I am praying for unity this morning as you travelled into Mexico, and as you prepare to get to work today! May each of you be uniquely blessed today! Love you all!

    Matt thanks for keep us updated. If Kel acts up just let him know I'll cancel his M.L.B.com subscription, and he cool it. Twins won last night 6-2, and I'll watch 7:10 tonight. Let me know if anyone would like any other team updates.
    Prayers and Blessings,
    Mish
