Missions with Cesar "The Beginning"

Hey guys,

sorry for not being posting any blogs in a period of time.

This is the beginning of of Missions with Cesar blog spot.

As you guys already know I met Bill and his family at the Christmas service. on January 18 I started to work for the Lord at the mission. The mission is a school that Calvary Chapel Puerto Vallarta started building some years ago. The vision was to give opportunity to poor kids to learn English and to know the word of God. The mission is located at Laguna del Valle which is a neighborhood near the city dumb. This place is full of dust and trash. Some of the houses there are not completely built. And they have cartoon roof tops and walls made of wood. Its really sad to know that these people live in so poor conditions when others are living in mansions here in PV.

The kids at the mission are full of joy and they are open to the word of God. On Sunday mornings we take a van to the the mission to pick up the kids of laguna del valle and we take them to church. After the service we have some food for them and for the rest of the people. we have a good variety of people coming. I get to talk to a lot of locals and people that are here for vacations. the church is located right between hotels so we get a lot of people just wondering abut the church. We also have a liquor store on the corner and a disco-bar on top of us. It may sound to bad. but I think is a really cool opportunity to witness everyday. we also have a mid-week bible study 0n Wednesdays and a evening bible study Sunday night. youth group is on Saturdays and Tuesdays,Thursdays and Fridays there's class at the mission. We have a coffee shop at the church and a bookstore. I really thank God for the opportunity to serve him in many different ways.

Thank you to all the prayer warriors that keep in prayer PV and the mission that has to be done here. We know God will do great things to these kids and to the people living in PV. So please continue to pray and God Bless you.

In Christ,
Cesar

Wow Cesar - it sounds like things have really started moving there for you. Plenty to do. I'm sure its great for them to have another bilingual person around. I pray that He would continue to guide you.

Hey Cesar,

Thank you for the update and pictures! I love reading your entries. It's cool to finally see the mission and be able to visualize you shoveling the concrete. jejeje! And I'm lovin that floor! =D Great job. Really, Cesar, thank you for your labor in Christ. It is an encouragment to all of us to know that God is raising up faithful men and women who commit their lives to His service and the furtherance of the Gospel. I know that there are times when it is hard and you will be discouraged, but stay strong in the Lord! Continue to run the race with the assurance of His faithfulness and steadfast love for you. Remember we are praying for you too! =) Thank you for your service and your heart for the Lord. It is a testament to us here as well as in Mexico. God Bless You!
