We are back in the U.S.


We are back in the U.S. !  Thank you for your prayers.  We are so grateful to God for bringing us all safely through the border.  He has always been in control of every situation and has provided protection for all of us.  Our group picture just shows that our Tecate Family is special and that God has definitely been working in all of us this week no matter what role we played.  As we make our way home tomorrow, pray for safety on the road and alertness for the drivers.  It will be a Good Friday!

The Final Day


Today was the last day of building for all the different work sites. This means that we were finally able to give the keys to the families we had been serving all week. I talked to many students when I returned to camp, and a lot of them talked about the impact building the houses had had  on both themselves and their faith. It is truly amazing to see how much God has worked in the hearts of the students and the lives of the families we had helped.

Day 5 - God's Glory is Evident


It is too difficult to sum up this day for our teams because it was God at work.  There were some various challenges all through this week, but God has been faithful in every aspect, and it was for His glory that the families and children that our teams have ministered to are blessed.  But, it was not just a blessing they received from God in the form of a physical house, but it was the blessing of God's love that was poured out on them through the servant hands and feet of all of our teams.  It is without a doubt that our students, staff, and parents all experienced a change in their own hearts either after handing the keys to the house to the grateful families, kicking a soccer ball, jumping in a bounce house with little kids, or teaching woman about nutrition and hygiene.  It is only through the work of the Holy Spirit that made that possible.

We thank you for your prayers and support, and we ask that you continue to pray for a safe journey home.

We need your Prayers!

We are on the last day of building.  We need your prayers and ask God that He will give us strength to finish, keep us safe, sustain us, heal us, and watch over us. Thank you so much.

Day 4 - Rain Day


The Lord decided He needed to water the earth specifically in Mexico and today had to be that day to do it.  But, God is good, and He knows that His work is being done through the hands and feet of the TKA Tecate Teams.  It did indeed rain at the very end of our morning chapel time, and there was a rush to get into our vehicles and drive off to the sites knowing that there could be little time to do any work.  Fortunately, God heard your prayers and the rain only lasted for a short time, work was not delayed in any way and all of the sites continued to build their houses.  Our ministry teams for Kids Club, Soccer, and Family Health were also not affected by the rain.  Another blessing was that there were clouds covering the sun so it made it much cooler for all of the work that was going on.  It did get a bit chilly with the wind, but it was bearable.  Thank you so much for praying and God really listened to your prayers.  Our camp is very relieved and thankful and are getting ready to finish tomorrow.  Pray for strength and endurance to finish strong and well.
