November 2021

Life was in Him, and that life was the light of men.  That light shines in the darkness, yet the darkness did not overcome it. - John 1:4-5

Thank you all for your prayers this month (and always!).  We're grateful that each one of the Twist Club sites organized successful Choose Life outreach lessons during the Day of the Dead season.  

 Choose Life kick-off

And we are so thrilled that one of the clubs officially re-opened at a new site!  Praying for them as they get off the ground, form their team and prepare the new space. 

Here they are! Twist Aragon (north of the city) starting up again.

Judith in front of her home - one of our super stars.  Leader of the Twist cell groups in Valle de Chalco, she has an unrelenting heart for the young generations.  

Please keep these faithful workers in prayer - for covering, provision, encouragement, and above all, to guard their personal time with the Father. 

Other news from the month... 

Xau did lots of teaching and preaching! - at least 30 hours - both in the city as well as in three other states.  I got to share a couple times as well :) 
Youth camp where Xau shared about our purpose and identity in Christ.

A time to encourage and serve some ice cream to this group of warriors: some of the teachers from Twist Chalco. 

And of course we had to celebrate Thanksgiving!  I tried my hand at a persimmon bread recipe, which I now highly recommend :) 

Thankful for each of you! Praying His love surround and fortify your hearts.

Time

Pay careful attention, then, to how you walk—not as unwise people but as wise—  making the most of the time, because the days are evil.    -Ephesians 5:15-16 God gave me a word for each month this year and February's word was TIME.  The goal: listening AND OBEYING His direction for how to spend time. He knows best - so yielding to His Word has been a challenge since I often think I know what needs to be done and when. But it's so refreshing when we do obey and get to experience His perfect wisdom!   Pray for these ones to continue to grow in their knowledge and walk with God! This past month... Crece Church Plant News:  Two women (mother and daughter) were baptized - expressing their desire to follow Christ completely.  Despite all her nerves and wanting to back out, Imara taught her first time on a Sunday morning! She was baptized last February. (Brayan also preached this month - we continue to encourage ones to let themselves be stretched and u...

Persevere!

Rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; be persistent in prayer .   -Romans 12:12 This word hit me hard at the women's retreat we attended at the beginning of the month. After my "I-don't-want-to-suffer" breakdown, God sweetly reminded me of His heart: Rejoice in the love of my salvation! It's not the suffering we're called to, but the perseverance through it to produce in us the joy and privilege of getting to walk WITH Him... And along the way we get to accompany others - praying  that they encounter Him!  Moments like this - even when just a few take look at God's Word - are glimpses of hope. Pray with us for these ones to hunger for more, seeking after Him with all their hearts! Many are facing family difficulties, pursuing false gods (namely, "la muerte"/ saint death), struggling with addictions, violence, apathy, etc. This month we had a couple good times with some of the Twist and Crece church leaders.  Special praise for Karla as she h...

Pressed

“We are pressured in every way but not crushed; we are perplexed but not in despair; we are persecuted but not abandoned; we are struck down but not destroyed. We always carry the death of Jesus in our body, so that the life of Jesus may also be revealed in our body.” ‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭4‬:‭8‬-‭10‬ ‭HCSB‬‬ It’s been a tough month. Good things but also some heavy pushback, spiritually. I’ve been prayerfully aware of the weight of this area we’ve targeted to minister in: Ecatepec. The name literally means “hill of the god of the air.” We know there’s quite a stronghold of the enemy in the region. And though it often feels like we’re working a pickax, we’re thankful  that His praise is the constant. And for the promise that we WILL NOT BE CRUSHED.  Highlights:  Worship night at Karina’s  home  (just two blocks from Crece church)  this Saturday night!  It was a great  time for the young people to come together, have some good hang out time and then mov...
