Sunday

The days are flying by and it seems that God is present in every detail. Today, I am reflecting on the trip to the men´s prison. As a team we were a little fearful of what to expect from these men. We love and spend time with their children but we also know the injustices these children have suffered from their fathers' and mothers' bad choices. Sometimes it is the children that bring these men hope and bring witness to JESUS CHRIST of eternal life.

The team spent a morning talking about the fears of visiting these men, but as a team we decided to go. Didn´t Christ visit the sick, imprisoned, and lost? We met some of the fathers who have been changed by Christ, others talk a good game, and others are just curious. But I have learned to love not judge and plant the spiritual seed and let God do the rest to change their hearts.

This afternoon we plan to have a big fiesta with a parade, food, and fellowship for the children. The theme is hearts, so everything is surrounded by LOVE!

As they say, "let the little children come to me..."

Adios for now,
Ann
