We are ready and excited with just a few minutes until the team lands. We have been praying and preparing this week, asking God to touch hearts both in Parrita and us as well. Go Jesus!

This afternoon we had the amazing opportunity to hear Pastor Jesus' testimony and his vision for the church/ Just knowing the heart he has for God and praying for him and his family was such a blessing.

We are getting ready for tomorrow with the kids! Salvation bracelets are a beautiful and easy way to explain the Gospel and Jesus' love! We can't wait to spend time with them and share the Gospel!

These kids won't stop! Their faces light up every time they see the bus. We just want to show that Jesus loves them.

We love to give everything in us; our gifts, our hands, our skills, and our time to glorify Jesus! This mural is going to be beautiful and bring hope and joy to many kids in Seeds of Hope!
