Sorry it´s been so long since I updated my blog! My computer is not working and it´s harder to find time to get on the internet. Today is our day off so I have spend the last hour or so in an internet cafe catching up. I hope you all are doing well! I have been enjoying the time here in Mexico City and can´t believe we are halfway through the outreach.
We have definitely seen God working in our area. We have set up an English class and two discipleship seminars. We also continue to meet people almost everyday. We are even meeting more and more English speakers. One of the English speakers we met is a young guy named Juan. We met him because he had met a group from the Perth base back in March and they had given us his name. We went out to a cafe with him and his dad and talked and got to know him a bit. Later that week we were talking with a Pastor that we met and he invited us to his church. He arranged to have someone come and get us. It turned out to be Juan´s dad. We didn´t even realize that they knew each other. So, on the way to the church service we called Juan to let him know that his dad was taking us to church and could he come and translate for us. He came and at the end of the service there was an altar call and he went up and gave his life to the Lord. He was so excited and couldn´t stop smiling! He has come and joined us a few times since then and is really pumped about all God is doing in his life! It was so cool to see how God arranged it all!! We have another interpretor named Fernando that doesn´t know the Lord either, please be praying for him!
I also had a chance to meet someone in the municipal building of Huixquilucan. His name is Horacio and he is not a Christian. He recently had surgery so I went with a couple others to see him and ask how he was doing. He was so dumbfounded that we actually came to check on him. He kept looking at us like we were from a different planet. At the end he said he really wanted our whole team to come to his house and meet his family. We will be going there on a Saturday in May. Please pray that we can really share with him and see him and his family come to know the Lord. I was really impressed that we need to continue to pray for the government of this area and I think this is a unique contact to get to know more government people like Horacio.
This week we also had a corporate meeting with all the YWAMers that are in Mexico City. There are about 150-200 of us throughout the city. It was a fun day of catching up and being with our friends! We have about 20 teams from all over the world that are in Mexico City right now! A big majority of them are from the YWAM Perth base but there are some from other bases around the world.
Thanks again for keeping me in your prayers. I am doing well and we are having a great time with our team. We have about 5 more weeks of ministry and then one week of report back and graduation. Please pray that we continue to see where God is at work and join him! Thanks for your support of me!! Love and miss you all!! Kathi:)
