As the news of Hurricane Gustav is getting worse, Buck and I ask that as a community of believers, we come together and pray for Louisiana and the surrounding area. We were there for Hurricane Katrina and saw first hand, the devastation that community suffered just 3 years ago. Many of the HPC campuses will be directly affected by this storm, so lets lift up our brothers and sisters from that area in prayer!
Healing Place Church El Paso got to be part of an international quest to be a servant driven body of Christ. Over 16,000 people from Louisiana, California, Texas, Mexico,and Africa got a touch from Christ this past Saturday. Our team broke out into three groups (Fire/Police Appreciation, Canutillo Back packs and school supply give away, and Mexico Outreach) to touch our community and it was amazing to see the impact that was made right here in our own backyard. Buck and I want to thank everyone who came out to Reach the World by Serving One.
Oh and here is one of my brothers and parents and me~ We clean up rather good!! :)
FAMILY TIME!!
This weekend was amazing. Not only did we have an outstanding SERVOLUTUTION (I will be blogging about that soon) but it was my grandmother's 90th birthday party. We got to meet our extended family. It was awesome. We enjoyed meeting each other so much--and created a relationship that will now continue on. Here are some pictures of the weekend!! Baruch Hashem... That is God Bless in Hebrew!!

Here are a couple of pictures of the launch team Sunday morning at the park. We are less than 5 weeks away from the BIG DAY!!! Caleb has been such an awesome asset to our team and we are so blessed to have him on board!! Also, we are getting ready for Servolution next Saturday August 16th. Buck is leading a team into one of the colonias in Mexico to serve food and play with the kids, Ralph is going to take a team to Saint Vincent De Paul in Canutillo to take under privledged kids backpacks full of school supplies, and I am taking a team to all the West side Fire and Police stations to take breakfast to those men and women who serve our community on a daily basis. We just want to be the hands and feet of Jesus at work in the greater El Paso area. If you have an opportunity check out www.servolution.org or call us to get plugged into a team. It's going to be off the hook.
