Dear friends and brothers in Christ.
I hope you are doing well and you and family had a wonderful and meaningful Easter!
If you remember, we sent out our March letter requesting prayer for the children and people of Ukraine. We were wondering what else we could do being so far away. But within days, we found single mothers and their children right in our own back yard.
As we started the month of March, sadly an invasion was taking place in Ukraine by Russia!
And we can’t overlook this, so please join us in praying for the people and especially for the children of Ukraine! And all the families that have been broken up due to this Russian aggression!
With that being said, it’s hard to follow that! But the needs continue to grow here Tijuana as well as throughout the world! More stress, more uncertainties about what is going to happen next!
This year has started with much cold and snow throughout the USA while we here in Tijuana are having a normal winter! Our prayers go out to all those families who have lost a family members because of the severe weather!
We want to thank each one of you for your faithful support and prayers especially during these confusing days! Thanks for believing in us and being faithful to our God!
Greeting to all, on these very special days we are all celebrating!
Thanksgiving was great!
Thanks to all for your prayers and support making all La Roca possible!
Most of our people in ministry were able to come together from the 4 corners of Tijuana to celebrate this very special day of gratitude! We enjoyed a warm meal and much love, but most importantly, giving thanks of our Lord Jesus for being our provider and our God! But now is the time to prepare for all our Christmas outreaches.
Hope all are doing well and strong in the Lord! May I challenge you all to do a good deed and share our Savior with someone, before we let this year come to an end! We still have 3 months left, so let us be busy doing our Lord’s work!
Well, we are going into our second Covid year and many church ministry groups still have not returned! All I can say is, we miss you … more than we can put into words! Your smiles, your hugs and words of encouragement bring so many blessings to our kids and adults!
Greetings to all! Hope your summer was a productive one!
Remembering we are the church of Christ, and first responders in time of trouble and distress!
It is sin which brings guilt, despair and shame! Jesus brings the solution to the problem of sin. He is the one who can release us from guilt, despair and shame! Jesus Christ is the answer!
Well regardless of the month we are in, we as usual are quite busy with all the ministry we do!
Our feeding and outreach to the immigrant’s camp continues to grow, from the hundreds to the thousands!
We are also bringing anywhere from 25 to 50 to the church every Friday. So they can take a warm shower and receive clean cloths and a warm meal, but last but not least God’s Word!
Greetings, we hope you have a great summer!
I would like to thank you for being part of the family and your involvement in our outreach through La Roca Ministries.
We have received through the years many testimonies of the impact your support makes possible! I wish I could share all the testimonies we have seen with our own eyes.
We have some fantastic news, our evangelistic team to the Zona Norte red light district, have ripped one of our first fruits! Berenice who was the first one to accept an invention to have some coffee and hear the salvation plan without all the pressures of the job!
Berenice received the Lord, and weeks later has decided to go back home and leave the life of prostitution! That’s a praise report and there are two more who have accepted an invitation to our women’s retreat in the second week of June!
Hope you all find yourselves strong in the faith, because He is trustworthy!
There is so much to write about and so much good news!
But first I want to share with you an exciting story and how the Lord uses us and at the same blesses us and others.
Then, I also want to make an announcement about how you can now join us in sharing what is already going on at La Roca Ministries.
Our new year has been very hectic but we hope all have settled in from this crazy beginning! But, believe it or not, we are already entering the third month of 2021!
It’s crazy, how time flies by so quickly, and we won’t let up!
As I have said many times, we need to stay focused on what God has called us to do! It’s easy to get distracted. This is why we must keep our eyes on Jesus!
Now more than ever, we need to be celebrating Christmas! We need now more than ever to turn on our Christmas lights! Let the light shine! Let us remember we are called to be light!
We, the church, need to bring light into the most darkness of places. We need to let all know we are celebrating the birth of our Savior, Jesus Christ! Amen?
This world needs Jesus Christ more than ever, much more than a vaccine shot, or a stimulus check! So I say, let us rejoice! Rejoice in Emmanuel, God is with us!
I hope you and your families have a great Thanksgiving!
In the midst of this pandemic crisis, around the world, no one can deny that America has much for which to be thankful!
Continually, let us be giving our loving Father thanks for His goodness to us all and to you and your families!
Now with thanksgiving season and Christmas just around the corner! We focus on bringing a little happiness to the children of the dump and the Zona Norte!
I hope we all are doing well and staying focused to what God has called us to do!
I have a short testimony from one of newest staff members at the ranch! His name is Milton, and he is 45 years old!
He left home at the very young age of fifteen! He was restless and found himself crossing the border into America!
He stayed with family in the USA for most of his time and learned construction. But he soon found himself getting into trouble.
I hope these difficult days have not gotten the best of you! Let’s keep our eyes on the Lord Jesus, the author of our faith! Stay strong, be brave and courageous, remembering God has said that He will be with us and not leave nor forsake us! I don’t know about you, but this is all I need to know! We will continue to fight the good fight, swimming against the currant and living for Christ!
I’m writing this letter in quarantine! I have been restricted since April 21st along with Alex and His wife Anahi. I have been feeling extremely fatigued and not able to perceive things clearly. But now I finally have new strength, thanks to God for sustaining me! I am so proud of my wife! As she has done an excellent job of taking care of me, and our family including all the responsibilities with being in ministry!
