Outreach Progams

Friends and Partners in Ministry, we have made it home to Piedras and have hit the ground running! 

Leaving town in May while school was still in session and making it back in August just a week before classes start again makes it seem as though we had no "summer"!  Aleana spent the first few days playing for hours with every friend & toy she had almost forgotten about!   How excited we were to be back alongside the Lord's work here and encouraged to see the growth God has been bringing these past 3 months to VBM's outreach programs! We still are averaging 15-20 youth in our thursday home group that meets and our youth have now opened another new group that meets in a fairly large privitized neighborhood in town on tuesdays which had 12 attend this week!  VBM's Outreach in Cenizos neighborhood  with Roman and Karla continues to minister to and meet the needs of 35 consistent children.  We were able to do a special saturday outreach there with some friends from near Houston and received  75 children who were blessed with bags of school supplies.  Another VBM special saturday outreach in the "2000" neighborhood received 110 children at Sylvia's home.   Thank you to Friendswood Community Church and Faith Community Church over near Houston who blessed each child with bags full of school supplies while we shared with them a meal and the good news of Christ.  Thanks also to our missionary friends The Mercers in Quemado Texas at the Cornerstone Children's Ranch.  They received LOTS of good used donated school supplies and called us to come out and fill up last week! PRAISE GOD for His timely provisions!
