Durso's blog
Our group is so large that we break up into two separate groups for our service projects. The first group went to where these pictures show - Cadereytra. They brought food and candy and came back to the B2B compound with amazing life-changing stories. My group, Tina Rogal and Bob Burckle's group are going here on Wednesday. We are looking forward to serving the Lord on this mission field.
What I wanted to share with you folks at home following our travels and service is the fact that this area was in desperate need for diapers and formula. B2B send out an urgent request less than a week before we were due to leave for Mexico. I just sat down from filling 7 LARGE bags full with diapers and also two bags of wet-wipes and formula for this needy area.
The B2B missionaries were once again blown away by SouthBrook's generosity and willingness to go the 2nd mile and provide for others they do not even know!
Thank you SouthBrooker's for showing God's love and allowing us to bless those you see in these pictures!
Love,
Mama D
THEME FOR THE WEEK-OFFER
Good morning!
Greetings to everyone back home. We finished last night with an incredible group time where each person got to share their favorite part of the day and how God showed up. The stories were amazing and I am so proud of our kids. They served yesterday with excitement and love. Pray for strength today as our groups venture off. Both groups will be staying at the childrens's homes we are working with, so pray that we have some great hang time with the kids and love on them like Jesus would.
Peace,
Greg

Luann loves to blog and look at mountains!
What a day! It started early this morning looking out at the awesome mountain outside of our dorm. The day ended with me sharing about seeing the glory of God in that mountain with our entire group and crying about it! Humbling, coming to Mexico is just humbling. Everyone shared how they experienced God today. Some of us saw God's glory in a majestic mountain, some in the face of desperation, and some in the simplicity of a child's laughfter. On this Father's day spent apart from our earthly father's, we were thankful for the day we spent with our Father above.
