Remain in Me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, so neither can you unless you remain in Me.
- John 15:4
As we look to the year and the goals we have, it often seems daunting. But this simple promise is God's constant reminder to me: seek and serve Him and all the rest will come. In a word, remain.
Twist Breakfast
Eating together is always the best. Funded by Heritage Kids - we had a lovely Twist leaders breakfast - where each could share about last year´s triumphs and challenges. Due to some changes last year, there are currently five Twists and one is planning to start in April.
Twist Oaxaca
Twist Oaxaca celebrated their first year anniversary! Xau made the eight-or-more hour trip down to participate and encourage the teachers and volunteers as they continue learning and growing. Every other Saturday, Angelica and the team make their rounds to announce and pick up kids. Praise God two new families recently started coming to the local church due to this initiative.
Twist Topilejo
Here in the south of the city in an area called Topilejo, Pastors Celerino and Aurora have decided to incorporate Twist at their church. They´ve been having high attendance of neighborhood kids on Sundays and want to implement a more intentional program for them. This month and last Jesus and Xau gave their initial trainings.
ExpoKids
For the first time ever, we were invited to "pitch a stand" at a children´s ministry expo. One of the largest churches here in Mexico, Centro de Fe (Faith Center), organized the event. People from different churches all over came and asked about what we do, and Xau held a workshop for attendees who signed up.
Couples' dinner
Making the most of February, Convivencia Cristiana Nueva Vida (the host church of Twist Ixtapaluca) organized a lovely couples´ dinner conference. As guest speakers, Xau and I were humbled and honored to share God´s Word and prompt communication for these couples of all stages.
Casa Hogar
These girls form part of the "Casa hogar" (home house) that Liam´s school visited. It´s not an orphanage, since one or more of the young ladies´ parents are living, but it´s where they spend their week due to the parents´ situation (drug addiction, prison, etc.). Xau accompanied them and directed the Choose Life lesson.
Leadership Summit
To close the month, Xau and I took time to attend the "Global Leadership Summit" - a weekend conference focused on inspiring leaders of all areas. It´s based out of Willow Creek (Illinois) and is now transmitted at churches around the world.
Mom life
This is the evidence of our newest baby-on-the way! Most of you know by now, but we´re excited to mention we're expecting baby #3 in late August.
Thank you for reading!! Even your interest in hearing about us is an encouragement. Thanks to each of you for your faithful support - in prayer, in love, in finance, in friendship. It means the world.
