Holy Spirit Days

We have seen some amazing things the last two weeks at Rehab 1 during Holy Spirit days. The first time, we had guys come up who volunteered to experience the Holy Spirit as we prayed for them, while the rest of the room watched. This allowed us to also teach the rest of the room to watch for signs of what is going on....

New Beginnings and the In Between

We have had the privilege of working with many really neat people in Guadalajara. Sometimes, I still can't believe we live here, in a big city and a "famous" state in Mexico. I guess my brain is still adjusting after all the transitions of leaving Zac being in the States and then now believing that we are here after so long of living in Zac....

10 year church Anniversary in Zacatecas

10 years! How did that happen! Joel was a baby when we started with the church plant in Zacatecas. We had been working in other ministries for 3 years prior to that in the same city. In just a couple of months we will have lived in Mexico for 13 years. That's a long time! 🙂 It feels weird because it feels like we've barely blinked and the time has passed....

Healing

On April 16, 2026, 105 days after originally breaking her arm, Anabel was able to go back to one of the things she loves most. Gymnastics. She had asked or mentioned several times a week throughout all those 105 days, 106 if you count the day she broke it, when she could go back to gymnastics....

The Arm that Upped My Mom Game

My last blog, which was quite a while ago, I told you that Anabel broke her arm on 1/1/2026. She got a short cast on it and then we waited for the weeks to pass and for the bone to heal. Through friends and recommendations, I was able to contact a doctor through WhatsApp on their persona cell phone (something we love about Mexico!)....

Starting Off with a Bang!

We spent the holiday break mostly in Illinois. The kids get 3 weeks every year. It was a nice time to enjoy family and some rest. We also visited 3 supporting churches and met with lots of supporters, our lives are almost always a mix for sure. We were blessed to see lots of people and spend lots of time with both of our families....

Stories Leading up to Baptism

Yikes! It's been a while without a blog! Hopefully you get stories through our other mailchimp emails and supporter emails etc. In November we were quite busy with a national pastors and leaders conference in Mazatlan, Mexico and then having 5 families from the school to our house for Thanksgiving. Mazatlan is the city I first started my missionary training in....

Today I decided to take some clothing items to the second rehab. I’ve never taken clothing there before, but from what I’ve seen the guys wearing, they need it. What I had to give today happened to be several pairs of (mens) underwear and a t-shirt. The staff person I handed the bag to said, “You aren’t gonna believe this. But a guy just told me this morning that he needed some underwear!” I said, “Well, God sent them!” 🙂 I was glad he told me that story....
