After several months of serving together, money raising, and preparation, we have finally arrived at Back2Back Ministries in Monterrey, Mexico. We traveled in two different travel teams with very little sleep but we have all arrived safely. After processing through customs, Back2Back staff greeted us at the airport and drove us to our home for the week in the Sierra Madre Mountains. Even though this not our first mission trip with Back2Back, we are blown away by the way God is using this awesome ministry. God has put together a great team. We are very expectant and know that God has great things in store this week. It is easy to see how excited our team is to be a part of what He is doing. In our debriefing tonight, every team member shared their greatest fear and greatest hope for the week. While some fear that they won’t be able to relate to the kids or will be hindered by the language barrier, everyone seems to have a sincere desire to be a blessing to the orphans. God is in pursuit of the orphans and it is such an honor and privilege to serve them. Please pray that God will use this team to truly be His hands and feet this week.
