Since we arrived in January, the our family and the church has been growing and moving in great ways. God has completely blown our expectations out of the box. Right now at Calvary Conexion Mexico, we have switched to doing 2 services on Sundays because the service was starting to get really crowded. There is about 35-40 people coming to our Sunday services, and there has been a new person, couple or family almost every week recently.

The Time has Come

We are so grateful for your partnership with us and for helping us to send Brian on the mission’s trip to Peru! Brian was able to go for basically a whole week, including travel. It was such a blessing and an encouragement for Brian to be able to see the church and the Bible college and how they are working together to raise up Christians to be future missionaries and church planters. At the missions conference Brian was so encouraged by all the people he met there from many other different countries. He realized that he has the same desire as them for church planting. They are people who are going through “normal” life struggles just like us, but they are on fire for reaching South America. There were 12 countries represented by the 270 people who attended the conference. The teachings were amazing, but what Brian enjoyed and was encouraged by the most was creating relationships with those people from all different countries. Being able to pray for them and also to have them pray for us. Brian was inspired by Calvary Trujillo and also their CBI for the work that we will be doing in Calpulalpan. We would like to especially thank Pastor Cory Kilgus & his family for their support and encouragement; and also to Arlin and his wife Rosemary who let Brian stay in their house while he was there.

Slowly but Surely

This time has come to a close and looking back we are so grateful for everything that God allowed us to do and experience throughout this summer. Even though we are not very busy with teams at Connections House, we have been keeping busy with ministry and preparations to move down south. The Lord has continued to bless us in many different ways, and we want to share a little bit about that with you. One thing we have begun to do is serve more at our church Calvary Rosarito. Mainly we have started serving in the worship ministry along with Brian’s brothers Kevin and Aldrin. Brian has also come on staff with Calvary Rosarito to get a better feel for things and learn more as we are preparing to move down south in December to plant a church.

Go! But wait!

The summer has come to a close with some amazing and encouraging things these past weeks. We went to the Church Planting Conference at Calvary Rosarito. Right before the conference started I (Brittany) was able to go to a Pastor’s wives brunch. It was very encouraging as each wife was talking about how it has been for them personally with their church plant. While I was there God revealed a vision to me. I have been struggling with a lot of doubts of myself, and in this vision each of these doubts or lies in my head were like these pillars that were coming up from the ground and surrounding me. Then Jesus appeared and wrapped His arms around me and protected me. God later gave me these verses while at the conference: Isaiah 43:1-2 “Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you. I have called you by name; you are Mine. When you go through deep waters, I will be with you.” God encouraged and strengthened me through the conference, through many people I spoke to personally and through the speakers. One lady from Culiacan also shared this verse with me: 1 Timothy 4:12 “Let no one despise your youth, but be an example to the believers in word, in conduct, in love, in spirit, in faith, in purity.”
