Today we stayed in the local community rather than going into inner Matamoros. This was a great experiment as AIM has never sought to build relationships with those, "right in their own backyard". Well the short of it is ministry works... BIG SURPRISE! Actually it does blow me away how simple it is here. There are needs to be met and we try to meet those needs above our own desires. While simple the thought is completely revolutionary.
I'll give some particulars before I get to ideological...
> KA ministered to a woman who had been stabbed 7 times by an angry ex-husband. She came to dinner here tonight.
> I got a group stuck in atono (actual word) mud. Worked out as we simply sat in a field and sang praises and prayed until we got pulled out. Imagine that not a single complaint just praise.
> I'm going to be "re-working" the worship stage setup with Ben (another Project Leader). It was driving us both crazy. I'm also looking to learn arc welding within the month.
> Ka was given hugs and kisses and was sung a song by a cute 4 year old. Upon hearing about this I popped him right in the mouth. That'll teach em'. Nah, actually she fell in love with this little guy.
> We had a high schooler who was skipping school accept Christ today!
Pray for...
> The little boy's (mentioned above) grandmother she went blind.
> Pray for us as we get ready for our flight.
K guys that's about it. Ryne & Laura I'm praying for you and looking forward to the wedding. We love you all.
