Well friends I have been back in Mexico for two weeks, and what a a busy and blessed two weeks it has been. It is amazing to be back among my brothers and sisters here in YWAM Tijuana. There is so much going on here, and the things that God is doing daily constantly leaves me on Awe.
These past couple of weeks I have been working in the hospitality department here at the base, helping to get things ready for teams to come and build for families in need in the community. The past two weekends we have had 4 teams come and 10 houses built. Which now means that 10 families who were just days before living in tiny one room sheds with multiple children are going to bed knowing that they are safe, with a floor that won't flood and a roof they know will keep them dry. Not only that, but the families that did not know the Lord were able to experience his love and faithfulness for his children. I also have had the opportunity to go on two of these home builds and host. It was an incredible experience as always. the first home was for a family of 8.... YES 8!! The family was living in a tiny one room shed that barely held there queen size bed and mini fridge. At the end of the build we watched as the family entered theyre new home and followed in after them . It was a blessing to see and hear thehildren run and scream with joy and excitment at the sight of theyre new bed's. The sencond home was for a single mother and her two children, ages three and eight. At the build the mom's face was full of tears, she could not even find the words to express her feelings. This now means new hope for bothe the families, A safe place to sleep, A better chance for there children to be able to attend school and most importantley they were exposed and emersed in the awesome love that God has for them! Like I so often hearwhile I am living in the YWAM community it is such a blessing to be a blessing! I am so amazed by all the things that God has already done, and I am waiting in expetancey at the things I know he is going to do in the future through all of his children here in the body of Christ. Thank you all so much for taking time to read this and for all of your love and support.

Blessings to all of you! in Christ, Caity. |
