In Quimichis we prayed with a lady named Gregoria. Her son Fernando has schizophrenia. She was telling us how hard it is to pay for medication from month to month she said it was 3,000 pesos which is about $300 a month. I have bipolar disorder and was able to give her some hope that her son can have a normal life. After this interaction I knew that God had put me here on this trip for a reason. I feel that God told me during that time that I was going to start an organization to raise money first for Fernando's medicine and hopefully branch out and buy medications for people in other countries that have mental illnesses. Please pray that I can accomplish this desire.
The guys decided to set up a volley ball court because the pastor's daughter in Quimichis loves volley ball. Volleyball at the Coult's house has been a great way to bring people to the house. We are hoping that the family will be able to use this to bless others and spread the gospel.
There was a community church service held in Quimichis two nights in a row. I played the drums with Sarah, Fabian, Rebecca,Keala and Doug. The service went well and I believe that many people were impacted.
This is a picture in the city of Celaya. In Celaya we had a short youth conference and I was able to share my testimony.
There was a huge catholic church there and it was very obvious how prevalent Catholicism is in Celaya. This is the catholic church it was interesting to see and really beautiful.
I can't wait to see what else God has in store. Please pray for safe travels and us to be able to share the gospel with many people. Our group is hosting a few youth conferences, a class on Jonah and a parenting class, so also pray for those classes to go well.
Thank you for all the support!
