Another Exceptional Year

Sun, 11 Dec 2016 20:16:41 +0000

Wow, how time really does fly! It’s hard to believe that another year is coming to an end. Last month marked six and half years for us serving here (full time) in Rosarito. What an amazing time it has been! So full of new experiences, a wedding in the family, meeting people from all over North America and the world, amazing friendships, an incredible church & staff to work alongside, thousands of team members being the hands and feet of Jesus - and the best part is that we have the privilege of organizing their mission trips and working alongside them! We look forward to the Lord continuing to use us to further His kingdom. But we also know that it would not be possible without the prayer and financial support of all of you. From the bottom of our hearts, we sincerely thank you!

Family Wedding & Ministry Team Updates

Wed, 09 Nov 2016 22:48:01 +0000

We’re so excited to see how the Lord has started to raise some of the money needed to purchase Connections House (our team dorm housing and current residence). We just wanted to keep you all updated. Our first payment of $55,000 will be due on March 1st. We would appreciate your continued prayers as we continue to seek the Lord’s will concerning this amazing property He has provided. If you feel led to give towards the purchase of this property, you can find more detailed information here. (Please scroll to the bottom for directions on how to make your tax deductible donation.)

The Countdown Begins

We’ve started the countdown of the number of days until we will no longer be able to rent Connections House. That’s right. If you haven’t heard this story, allow us to quickly catch you up. God directed us to this facility after over a year of praying and many months of searching. It seemed to be where God was calling us, and it has proven to be an absolute blessing! We have a two-bedroom apartment for our family, a separate home with six bedrooms that sleeps 26 people, a separate room to house up to four more team members or volunteers, a large dining area, five bathrooms, a basketball court/recreation area, a huge garage/parking area, and more than enough outdoor space for teams to have meeting or just hang out in. And all this sits on three city lots, is secured behind a metal fence, and is located only five minutes from church and downtown Rosarito.

Getting Ready to Open New Team Housing!

Thank you so much for your prayers and for your partnership! Remember to check out our Amazon List to see how you can help us furnish the new ministry house! We found a great deal on some bunk beds for only $179! There are also dozens of items priced as low as $9.14 to $14.99. If the Lord will put it on the hearts of 75-100 people to buy just one or two items on the list, we can have the home furnished in no time! Blessings to you all!

Ron met Kristy and the kids in Wisconsin a couple of weeks after they departed, making the total trip seven weeks (5 weeks for Ron). Of course the drive alone takes a good four days, driving a little over eight hours per day. When we returned home, we were definitely ready for a vacation!

An Incredible Year With CCR

Thu, 06 Aug 2015 06:02:11 +0000

The last weekend in May kicked off three weeks with four teams and three home builds. It was a very busy, hectic, amazing three weeks filled with ministry, new and renewed friendships, sharing the gospel, and so much more. We know that you have heard us say this so many times, but we can’t say it enough. Without the prayers and support of you, our friends and family, this ministry would not be possible. Many have received Christ in their heart for the first time, the fatherless and senior citizens have been blessed, food has been distributed, and secure, weatherproof homes have been given to families in need - and so much more!

A Season of Growth

We are so eager to tell you about all that the Lord is doing here in Mexico! We have a new ministry opportunity that He has given us that will hopefully bring more teams to Rosarito and get people on fire for missions and serving!

Casa de Los Angeles

This is the name of a children’s home (orphanage) being built just a couple miles outside of downtown Rosarito. We are overjoyed to tell you about how God has opened the door for us to partner with some southern California churches in the construction of this new home. Andy, who is the pastor of La Crescenta Presbyterian Church, recently came to visit as he was getting things prepared for an upcoming team trip. We have worked with Andy in the past to help obtain materials for the children’s home and to hire some local workers, and this trip was no different. Except when it came to the point where he needed to hire a Construction Coordinator and our contacts weren’t quite panning out. More money has been raised for the project and the board is ready to get things rolling, which means there’s a need to have someone here that can help manage things. Obviously that fits right in with Ron’s experience, as well as our team ministry here. So when the Lord put it on Andy’s heart to ask Ron to fill this position, he (we) gladly accepted.
