For the Lord God is a sun and shield.   

The Lord gives grace and glory;

He does not withhold the good 

from those who live with integrity. 

Happy is the person who trusts in You, 

Lord of Hosts! 

Psalm 84:11-12

En-route to Oaxaca scenery 

The second Kids´ Club Twist opened this month!   Over 30 kids came to the inauguration and more than 50 came in following weeks.   Pray for favor in the community and for parents to see the impact of the Word of God in their young ones' lives!

Amy & Andy - a YouTube kids' ministry here in Mexico - came to celebrate with us for the inauguration with a worship dance party!  The kids loved the fun songs and many prayed to receive Jesus that day.    

The next weekend we were off to Oaxaca (7 hour bus ride south) to facilitate a Passing the Torch Seminar.  Over 60 parents and teachers came to hear God's heart for the new generations.  One wrote that the training made her reflect on how she had been preparing before and how she will develop now as a teacher.  "I have more fully understood the importance and responsibility [we have] as teachers."

 Xaume also had the privilege of sharing the message at the host church that Sunday.  At the close of the message we took time for families to pray together - committing once more to acknowledge God over all.  

That evening we visited Pastor Juan,  a friend who pastors in a town outside the city.  He invited Xaume to share with the church. 

Some shots from the first week of classes at the newest Twist Club in Valle de Chalco!  Registration, opening games, worship and lesson.

Twist continues in Ixtapaluca (photos below).  Praise God attendance has been increasing again!   Keep praying for these kids and young folks to hunger for more of Jesus. 

These boys are growing up! 

Testimony: At Twist Ixtapaluca the focus this month has been on God´s power to heal us.  One young lady, Fátima, had been diagnosed with pre-diabetes.  After praying with her for healing, her follow-up results showed normal sugar levels!  Praise God!  We continue believing for her supernatural health. 

A christian clown called Oscarín came to do an awesome show this last week. The kids and families were enthralled.  We had 70 kids that day which hasn't happened in months! 

At our church we helped plan and teach at an all-day training for children´s teachers and assistants.  Over 100 people came to be encouraged and challenged in the call to minister to young lives.   The children's pastors were glad to have this specific time of renewal and instruction for the volunteers. 

Ministry bit:
Graphic design for flyers, Facebook posts, banners, visuals and more...
Xaume especially spends many hours at the computer designing and posting publicity. He and I both enjoy it, but it definitely takes time as well as the extra trips to the printing district.  We´re always looking for help : ) 

The publicity for Oscarín´s show

Family news: 

As Liam grows and we get more and more excited about baby Bueno, I´m trying to introduce him to potty training...

For baby boy we have a first name: Malakai, but working on a middle name.  Suggestions?? 

Thanks for being a part of our lives! Specific prayer requests include:

• A mission group coming from Michigan next week! Pray for God´s Word to be released in power.
• Organization, effectiveness and, above all, God´s heart in every area of ministry and especially Twist Kids´ Club  
• That we keep an attitude of prayer and praise in every moment. 

Thank you!  Be blessed in Jesus´ Name!
