I want to take the opportunity to do something different this week. This friday 14 students and my wife and I will be taking a trip to Chihuahua, Mexico for two weeks of missions work. We fly out on Sunday and return two weeks later on June 14.

This is the second year for us and we are excited to pick back up with the ministry efforts there in Mexico. Last year we worked with NTM doing building projects and we spent time at "the brickyard" working with impoverished children. We excited this year because we are stepping up our game! We want to make and even bigger impact. We want God's glory to be known this year more then ever!

This can only be accomplished through our obedient hearts and lots of prayer. This is where you come in. You might not be going to Mexico with us this year but we ask for your prayers. Please spend some time now and hopefully each day from this friday till June 14th praying for us and the work that God is doing in Mexico. Please pray for both us and the Mexican people.

We want to keep in touch with you while we are there. We have set up a blog that we will post on each day. It already has some stuff on there now! Go check out the blog, it may answer some of your questions, and then check it each day while we are in Mexico to hear what is happening and to know what to pray for!

We seriously can't do this without your prayer support! Thanks for partnering with us on the home front. We look forward to telling you all about it when we get back!
