Our 2006 Mexico Mission a Huge Success

Thanks to all for making the Mexico mission such a huge success. We raised over $12,000.00 for the projects, donated health care items, and sent a team of 36 fantastic people to represent our church and our God in a place of poverty and hopelessness.

• Repaired roofing for 45 families whose homes were inundated with water because of leaking last winter, and contracted work for the roofs of 45 additional housing units.
• Built 6 new outhouses and dug new trenchs to improve sanitary conditions in the camp.
• Provided and installed new plumbing and a huge french drain for the clogged washing area in the center of the village, eliminating the standing water that created unsanitary and foul smelling conditions.
• Ran a daily Bible class program for the neighborhood kids each day, featuring puppets, crafts, singing bible lessons, a snack and a whole lot of love shared between kids and team members.
• Provided funds for sugery and time off for our computer center teacher Manuel, who is suffering from a severe hernia.
• Distributed shampoo, soaps, dental care items to the roughly 150 residents of the camp. Provided individual assistance to many who had special needs.
• Also organized a fantastic wedding ceremony for 12 couples complete with mariachi band and served a sit down dinner for 250 people.
• Installed a new air conditioner unit in the computer center.
