Building Bridges....relational, spiritual, and physical

The swinging bridge at San Jose
 This week we presented our new VBS called "Sky," to three families, at Casa Hogar San Jose and at the CAT. The theme for the VBS is based on Mark 10:27: todo es posible con Dios -- Everything is possible with God. For many of these kids, this is perhaps a new truth and a very important message. We continue to build bridges with the kids and the staff at the CAT (government shelter for abused and neglected children), as God continues to show favor on this relationship. We will be doing VBS all summer with the teams that come to serve for our ministry partners. 



In addition to doing the VBS, we built a swinging bridge at San Jose, repaired a swingset, hung fans and deloused some kids' hair at the CAT, and poured another section of the roof over Pastor Victor's church in Tres Reyes.

Crosses the kids made at the CAT, that say:
"Todo es posible con Dios."

who went to Jesus to heal his sick servant.
















It was a great week in which we built relationships with kids, ministry partners, staff and one another. As our Back2Back staff reflected this morning on the week past and the week ahead, we were amazed at God's blessings and favor on the work we're doing. We look forward to seeing many of you this summer when we return to the U.S. and sharing more stories of how God is working here in Cancun!
