Hi everybody,

I'm so excited to share with you our mission day (NMI Work &amp; Witness Cruise, Northeastern Indiana District Church of the Nazarene) in Cozumel, Mexico.

Here we go!





Then I heard the voice&nbsp;of the Lord saying,&nbsp;

“Whom shall I send?&nbsp;And who will go for us?”&nbsp;

And I said,&nbsp;“Here am I. Send me!”&nbsp;

Isaiah 6:8

One day I heard the voice of the Lord calling me and I said yes. Here I am. Send me!
It was the best decision I've made. How wonderful is to dream the dreams of God, and to be in the center of God's will! Glory to God! Praise the Lord!




The day dawned beautifully


We woke up and took a big breakfast. We got off the ship around 8am and met the group.
Wow! What a wonderful place! The most beautiful water I've seen in my whole life!










Port Of Cozumel





We headed toward the mission's place by bus.

We were received by Rev. Joaquín Ocaña (Mexico East District Superintendent), Edi Montejo (Compassionate Ministry Coordinator for Mexico) and his wife, and Maximum Mission team.

We joined with the Maximum Mission's work. Maximum Mission were there since January 17th, and stayed there until January 20th. How nice was listened what God was doing there during those days! The island had no previous presence of the Nazarene Church. Entire families were reached by Jesus’ message. One of those families, who lives in front of the park where the Maximum Mission was conducted, gave their lives to the Lord. And the family has been offered to start the church in! Praise the Lord!




This is the house where a new church will be held.


The power of God reaches beyond borders, it has no limits!&nbsp;

The cry out of his people reaches to the heavens!&nbsp;

So believe and never stop praying!&nbsp;




There was a party in heavens!

Praise the Lord for all He has done! It's awesome to be a part of God's plans for Cozumel. One day, one faithful missionary, Joaquim Lima, came to my city and started a new Nazarene Church. I'm a fruit of the work of this Church. Praise the Lord for His faithful servers. Nowadays the Church is growing and multiplying.

Just give you an input of all the results of the hard workers:
Haircuts, doctor visits, clothes and groceries donations, house-to-house prayer, crafts, guitar workshops, sports, physiotherapy and screening of the Jesus Film, evangelism and compassion activities were part of the event.

Mark, Anita

We had VBS in the morning and in the afternoon. We had so much fun! We sang and danced a lot! I fell in love for the kids, they are so special! The message was from the Wordless book. At the end of the message many kids gave their lives to Jesus. Praise the Lord! &nbsp;God is good all the time, all the time God is good!


"But Jesus called the children to him and said, “Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these."&nbsp;
Luke 18:16



Lots of fun











Wordless message

Wow! I have have no words to say how magnificent God is! We finished the work overflowing with gratitude and joy! It's better to give than receive. This verse is so true for those who follow Jesus! I took a piece of Cozumel with me! One day if God's allows I would like to visit them again. God bless Cozumel!



We left the port about 4:30pm. Later we enjoyed dinner. Then we had our worship service at the Green Room. We had the pleasure to listen Adam's Voice songs again. In sequence was the time to get to know Mark Murphy. Oh my goodness, I couldn't hold on my tears! Some of the songs that he sang:



What can I give a King

Creator of Everything

What can a child like me

To this King



I give me

All that I was

All that I am

All that I'll be



I give me

That's what I'll bring

Not just a part

But all I am

And all I'll be

I give me



I think this is all that God wants us to do! Give us entirely! We also heard some testimonies from our team. And at last Tom gave us the instructions for the next day.&nbsp;

Praise the Lord again! He did amazing things for us, in us and through us!

I finish this post with the words of Edi Montejo:&nbsp;"In these times, it is necessary to retake the message of Jesus Christ to all the world" , "God is looking for workers who want to serve children, youth, and adults, all involved in the Great Commission and Great Commandment. Pray for new believers in Cozumel and Pastor Xochilt Sanchez, who will be leading the new mission of the Church of the Nazarene in the Mexico East District."



Hugs,



Blessings, see you next week,
