Break for the Border Day Two began with prayer for some to go up… and some to come down… walls to on the house to go up… walls on hearts to come down. And they did!

At the start of the day, the Rodriguez homesite looked like this:

But by the end of the day, it looked like this:

Construction team in action:

Karrie & Gerald… along with the rest of the team nailed about 2,000 nails today. #notjoking

Hector Rodriguez worked side-by-side with us all day long.

David was one of the brains behind the operation!

   

First wall went up without any problems!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Amanda did some serious work with the power tools!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Power tools were a hit with David and Jed, too!

Walls came down. Doors and hearts were opened for the food distribution team as they loved on 10 families in Peñitas. Receptivity to God and a willingness to allow the team to pray for their needs enabled the team to be a true blessing and a small part in the story God is writing here.

Such a thrill to purchase this much food to give away to others. Bags with tags sharing John 4:19 say it all.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Circled up and praying with Jose and Maria. Please join us in praying for Jose’s foot to be healed so he can return to work.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And Camp Equip was loads of fun!

We ask that you continue to cover us in prayer as we know Him and make Him known! May our believe in God’s promise for immeasurably more be seen in our obedience to His call in all things.
