On Tuesday I had the privilege of sharing at the other MOPS group in Mexico. I didn't have to travel too far as the church is on the same land as the seminary where we are living! I love MOPS and I love how eager these girls are to do a great job in their privileged position of being mums of young kids.
On Thursday we had our meeting in La Loma and the topic was 'True Beauty' with an overview of some of Esther's great qualities. In both groups numbers have gone down since everything was closed because of the swine flu. We appreciate your prayers that God would bless both groups numerically and as a result that lives and families would be transformed by the power of the gospel and applicable teaching. It felt so good on Thursday to tell the girls that there are people interested in them and praying for them that they don't even know. These girls are constantly testifying to the change MOPS is making in their marriages and families. There is a depth of biblical wisdom in this area among older women in our churches at home that perhaps we take for granted. In a few years we hope to see even more long-term fruit for the labour of MOPS in Mexico City.
Downstairs the kids enjoyed popcorn and a movie...and comfy cushions made by friends at home. Thank you again Ann and the team! The leadership of the kids' work has changed hands. It's a little unstable and we'd appreciate prayer that God provides people every week to work with the kids. There has always been someone...but sometimes just one!!
