Two days....

Hey...here's just a quick update.
We are leaving Sunday at three thirty in the morning...killer :) We fly out of Tijuana and land in Culiacan later that morning. We start our program right away. We will be with about sixty other Mexican nationals. We will have two to three hours of prayer and worship each day, then two hours to prepare and hopefully relax. We will go to the different camps/assignments at around four in the afternoon since we can't do an outreach with the people until they are back form working in the fields.
We were all given evangecubes....if you don't know what that is its a block that has all different pictures on it depicting the life of Jesus. Its pretty interesting and it sounds really/looks really cheesy...but apparently it has been used all over the world, successfully bringing whole groups of people to Christ. Its really cool. This is going to be a really big evangelism time for us...its nerve wracking since we don't speak spanish very well....but God will use us somehow :)
We have spent this whole week praying and fasting and worshipping and listening to the Holy Spirit...its been so awesome. I've never felt so at peace. I mean, its and expected thing after spending about three to four hours in prayer everday, and have anywhere from one to two hours a day set aside for quiet time with the Lord. Today we drove out to this cemetary which sounds really creepy but its not. Mexican cemetaries are not as creepy as U.S. ones. They are really bright and cheerful...more flowers than graves. It also has the most amazing view of the mountains that surround Porvenir. It was such a beautiful and peaceful time. I just sat there in the warm sun with the wind blowing and it was really special. I am confidant that God is going to use our team to do some awesome spreadage of the Truth! (if spreadage is a word...hopefully you know what I mean :))
I'll write again in two weeks. Thanks!
