Summertime = Moving Forward Time
Lot's happening during this so-called summertime of rest. Different church groups from around the country are "vacationing" at Casa Hogar Refugio, moving the work forward on Casa de Irene so that new children at risk can have a place to call home. What a privilege it is to be part of this work for HIS kids.
Talk about moving! The news is out. We (Rocky and Sheri) 
will be selling everything and moving into a 5th wheel trailer to be more flexable in doing what the Lord commands of us. Facilitating more groups to help meet the needs of children at risk, while spending time together in our respective ministries, is what we are hearing.
We need to spend a large amount of time along the border, maintaining relationships with partners already developed, overseeing future projects, and exploring the greatest need of other children's homes. These challenges can best be met by being there for extended periods. Living in a 5th wheel will provide mobility, allowing us to shift locations as needed. This is certainly a time of "getting out of our own comfort zones." In reality we feel more "at home" and "comfortable" when we are in the mission field, especially with the loving volunteer groups that work along side of us and share in this glory work of the King!
Once the April Trip was completed, it was time to work own our own home getting it ready for sale. May and June were busy months of getting projects done with the help of many HERO friends.
Our house is now officially on the market. Please pray for the right buyer to come quickly and for the Lord to provide the 5th wheel and tow vehicle. |
HERO Makers
is all the sheetrocking that was done at the new Casa de Irene home located at Casa Hogar Refugio Children's Home in Reynosa, Mexico. 71% of our short term missionaries were here from the area of Calgary, Canada! What a blessing it was to work along side these godly brothers and sisters
We feel this is a strategic plan in retaining the house parents for a longer period of time, giving more stability to the children in need.
We will also spend a fun night in San Antonio along the Riverwalk. This is a great trip for couples or singles. Lots to see and do as we serve our neighbors to the south.
