Wednesday: Day 1 at the Colonia photos

Ok - I'm a few days late getting the next set of pictures up so let's get going! If you want to see a larger version of any of these pictures, just click on them.

A view of Juarez and El Paso; this was taken from the Mexican side as we headed to the colonia.

Check out the house - as you can see, they get built in stages. Here they are adding cinder block to their home.


This is the line forming for lunch at the Igelsia Mi Dios es Real, which is where we were at the colonia.


This is Filipe and Cesar - I met these two boys at the beginning of the day and talked to them often on both Wednesday and Thursday.


That's me with a bunch of kids - notice how skinning the dog is.


Fernando (who I think is from the colonia) and Sarah serving up lunch.

The women's ministry inside the church.


These are the two men who accepted Christ after Kent held a Men's ministry time. Kent was done in about 20 minutes while the women went on for about 2 hours!


After we sent everyone home, we heard from Pastor Martin about his ministry in the colonia and we prayed for him.



This is Pastor Martin and his family.



Karen H pulled her camera out and snapped this shot of the Mexican Federales as they were searching us before crossing back into the U.S. This was the day that Elvia gave one of the guards a tract and it opened up doors for us to minister to the border guards.
