After being in Thailand for ten days, I began my three-week journey of Southern Asia. Doing a Vision Tour, a time where workers are able to go to a region of the world where they feel called to and they are able to experience the culture, the work and the need of that place. The Lord has placed Southern Asia on my heart, a region that is within the 10/40 window that has some of the most concentrated amounts of the lost, unevangelized and little to no presence of The Gospel of Jesus Christ. Souls are being born, living and dying without ever having the opportunity of choosing eternal life. I know what some of you may be thinking ” How could a loving God send someone to hell for not knowing or believing in Jesus? ” God is not sending anyone to hell for not believing in Jesus, but for their sins. In the same way a just judge could not allow a convicted murderer to be set free without first paying for their crimes. God cannot allow sin to go unpunished, so He laid that punishment upon His Son Jesus Christ . Gifting forgiveness, innocence and eternal life to all who will repent and trust in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. (John 3:16)

This is the purpose of The Church, the evangelization and discipleship of the whole world, to let the world know that there is a Savior and His name is Jesus Christ.

So excited to share this journey with you all and in my next update ill share, the good, the bad and the hope for Southern Asia, and what it was like serving in the 10/40 window.

It is written

After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands, and crying out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation belongs to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”

– Revelation 7:9-11

I heard an amazing quote earlier this week, from one of our teachers and he said

” The fuel for Missions is worship. “

The reason for Missions is to reconcile the creation to its creator, and the lost soul to its maker. We were made to be in communion with God, and the highest calling a human being can attain is falling on their face in worship before Him, who was, and is and is to come. The scripture at the beginning is a prophecy of a time coming when all the redeemed from every nation, tribe, people and tongue will worship The Lamb of God,

Jesus The Christ.

Glory.

Hello Beloved, I pray this newsletter finds you in peace and in the love of God.

In my final weeks of Clavary School of Missions, our team had the awesome opportunity to bring the Gospel to a tribe in the Mountains of Mexico.

They are called the Cora

After hopping on a plane from Tijuana to Culiacán, our team met up with Pastor Antonio, of Calvary Misones. He shared his heart and vision with us; which is to reach the unreached of Mexico, within The Circle Of Silence.

The Circle Of Silence is an area within Mexico where the gospel has not been preached and the name of Jesus is unknown.

After a night of teaching, fellowship and prayer; His (Pastor Antonio’s) Team and Ours got into our Vehicles and started our 10 hour trek into the mountains, to reach The Cora Tribe.

After driving through the night, high into the mountains and on treacherous road; we arrived at the village.

After arrival, Pastor Antonio and a couple of our leaders had to talk to the chief and the village council to get permission to be there.

They welcomed us and we began our work.

The Village of The Cora Tribe

The Cora tribe are one of eight known people groups living in this mountainous region.

They are an agricultural tribal community and are the easiest group to reach. They speak a language of their own as well as Spanish. They have some modern features such as paved roads, cellphones, a village hospital, a mini store and they just began having electricity installed in the village only a couple months ago. The men will leave off the mountain to work and bring money home for their families, while the women stay and tend the home and children. They are known for their vibrant colored clothes, and hand made bags; which they create by using yarn, wire hanging from a tree, a wood base, their hands and their feet.

They believe in a host of spirits/gods.

TOBASTADA/The Mountains being the greatest of these. They believe some of these spirits are the cause of misfortune, illness and death among them. To ” appease” the evil spirits, they will allow treatable illnesses to remain untreated, even allowing their children to die. This is none other than the work of the evil one, who has come to lie, steal, kill and destroy…but Jesus has come so that we may have life and life abundant. (JOHN 10:10)

Our purpose was to bring The Light of Christ to a people living in spiritual darkness. Who are born, live, die and enter into eternity without ever having the choice of choosing Christ.

We didn’t come to change their way of life, culture, or identity; but we came to bring Jesus.

Who is the Way, The Truth and The Life. And the only Way to communion and eternal life with TOBASTADA.

We spent three days with the tribe. We connected with them through games, gifts, medicine, food, worship, teaching and the universal language of love.

During one of our evangelistic outreaches, we came across a family with a son who had been ill for three days with gastroenteritis. The mother said she didn’t want to take her son to village hospital or take any medicine from us out of fear of the evil spirits. After leaving slightly discouraged, we prayed and returned.

She went against her fears and gave her son medicine. A day later the sick boy came to our camp and was playing with the other children.

Praise God!

To see the reactions of people who have never heard the name of Jesus, and how The Son of TOBASTADA suffered and died for them was pure treasure and so humbling. That God would use us to reach them. On the third day we had the very first church service within their village…with over 30 members giving their lives to the Lord.

Praise God!

Please be praying for the salvation of the Cora tribe, and that God would plant a church with in their community. By the grace of God, there was a member of the tribe who was fluently trilingual. A young man from the village who made it off the mountain and lived in Colorado for a few years and returned. He speaks Cora, Spanish and English. He gave His life to The Lord as well, and may be the perfect vessel for the purposes of God with in His community.

Praise God!

It’s wild to think my time in Mexico has come to an end! It’s been one of the best times of my life, and I am truly so appreciative of all those who have partnered with me in prayer and financial provision and loving support.

THIS IS YOUR FRUIT.

Next Steps.

Through conviction of The Word, Prayer and confirmation of The Spirit, I have decided to continue on into The Missionary Training School offered by Saving Grace World Missions.

Where I will be trained up for the ministry of preaching the gospel, making disciple’s, planting churches and potentially living cross culturally. Please be in prayer as I make these great steps off faith. I will be moving from my home in Washington to California.

“For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light!”

‭‭-Ephesians‬ ‭5‬:‭8‬ ‭‬‬

The Gospel of Jesus Christ changes lives. It takes what the world says is hopeless, lost and beyond repair ; and makes something beautiful. This week at School of Missions I met a pastor named Pedro, who was once an active member of the cartel, and is now a church planting pastor.

Pedro was born in California, and lived a life enjoying crime. After being sentenced to prison, he rejoiced in it and seen his incarceration as a victory. Pedro’s spiritual life at this point was very dark, he claimed to follow satan and even believed him to be his friend. He believed that the more evil he committed the more favor he would receive from satan, and even believed that it would be satan who would receive him at his death. Until a Christian inmate confronted him, and brought truth to him. The inmate told him about satan’s identity and said “ satan is not going to defend you when you die, but will be the first one to accuse you before God.” The inmate also revealed the identity of Jesus and how He is our defender, the source of our salvation and the One who is truly for us. Pedro didn’t accept Christ at this point and rejected what the brother said…but a seed was planted. Eventually Pedro was released from Prison and moved to Mexico and got involved with The Cartel. He also began attending a Catholic Church and began living a double life. His cartel life caught up to him, and he went back to prison but this time he came across a female missionary whose husband and son were murdered within two days of each other. She was in the prison preaching about the mercy and forgiveness of God. Moved by her willingness to forgive, and the forgiveness of God, Pedro began the journey of finding forgiveness for himself; He eventually left the cartel, and gave his life to The Light of the world, Jesus The Christ. Pedro is now a redeemed pastor, preaching the kingdom of God and planting churches.

This is the power of the gospel, no matter who you are, what you’ve done or how great you think your own darkness is; there is mercy, forgiveness, eternal life and light for all at the cross of The Lord Jesus Christ

“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.”
‭‭John‬ ‭1‬:‭5‬ ‭‬‬

“But to all who believed Him (Jesus, That He is The Son of God) and accepted Him (As Lord and Savior) He gave the right to become children of God. “

– John 1:12 ESV

This passage above is found in the first chapter of the gospel of John. It is speaking of the Lord Jesus Christ. Who He is, what He is and What He came to do. He is The Word of God, He is God and He came to make The Father known. The Fathers heart and desire is that all would come to repentance and a saving faith in His Son,

Jesus The Messiah

And that you would become His child, and He would become your Father.

Hello Beloved,

I pray this Newsletter finds you in peace, and in The Love of God. This week at Calvary School of Missions was filled with awesome teachings and testimonial’s from Rob and Heidi Douglass. Missionaries who started in Orange County California, and through the call of The Great Commission and The Sprit; found themselves in Sudan, ministering in an unreached war-zone. They shared with us wisdom for the field, lessons in cross cultural ministry and The heart piercing numbers of people who will be born, live, die and enter into eternity without ever hearing the gospel, and the lack of laborers and what we can do about it.

We had some amazing fellowship and evangelistic outreaches in Rosarito, Ensenada and Tijuana. I had the amazing opportunity to teach at an outreach in Ensenada. The passage I taught on was John 1:12. And at the very end of the teaching, I gave an altar call to all who would like to join The Family of God and make Him their Father. A family of three responded and decided to give their lives to The Lord that day.

Praise God!

“A new heart also will I give you, and a new spirit will I put within you.”
‭‭Ezekiel‬ ‭36‬:‭26‬ ‭ASV‬‬

Hello beloved, and glory to God in the highest!

The scripture you just read was a prophecy and a promise from God of a time when His people would be restored to Him. When we are born into this world we are born physically alive, but spiritually dead. Cut off from God by our sin, but God in His mercy sent Christ to be The Way back to Him. Through the shedding of Jesus’s blood and the pouring out of His life, we receive Life. We are gifted Forgiveness of sin, eternal life and The Spirit of God;

and a Child of God is born.

The spiritually dead heart is resurrected and life truly begins.

This week at the school of missions consisted of rich teachings, swap meet evangelism, awesome worship and water baptisms at

Calvary Tecolote.

Worship at Calvary Tecolote

The congregation of Calvary Tecolote, were such kind and beautiful people. Most of them didn’t speak a lick of English, but I had some of the sweetest fellowship I’ve ever had in my life. The communication was made up of my poor Spanish, hand gestures, laughter and the universal language of love. Of those that did speak English, I had the privilege of hearing the testimony of Alberto, who was once a prison inmate but through a revival of his heart by the gospel is now serving in church. The service at Calvary Tecolote, ended with four people giving their lives to the Lord, and water baptisms. 🤍

Seeing The Spirit of God move here in Mexico, has stirred my faith and only left me longing for more of Jesus; and has begun a personal revival with in my own walk with The Lord. 🤍

I want to thank everyone who has partnered in making this mission happen. I am so excited to share this journey with you all as we fulfill the Great Commission. Stay tuned for all that The Lord is doing while I’m here in Mexico.

Hóla from Rosarito Mexico!

Glory to God in the highest!

The first week of Calvary School of Missions has officially been completed. Each day was filled with sobering truth’s, a call to surrender, and a seeking and discovering of the heart of God. The purpose of this school is to teach men and women about The Gospel of The Lord Jesus Christ, and the great commission given to the Church.

The last commandment that Jesus Christ gave before His ascension, recorded in the gospel of Matthew 28:19-20

“Therefore, go and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.””
‭‭Matthew‬ ‭28‬:‭19‬-‭20‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“ Therefore go” the commission is to become a disciple and make disciples, and preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the ends of the earth. -Reference to look into it further: Acts 1:8

God’s heart since the fall was to redeem His creation, from the curse of sin and death. You see we live in a broken world, that was once perfect and completely good. (Genesis 1:31) Free from evil, sorrow, sickness, pain, suffering and the worst of all, separation from God. God gave humans rule over this perfect creation and He also gave them free will, for it’s the only way to have creatures that can really love. But we used our free will to rebel against God, plunging us and the whole of creation into a state of decay, darkness and depravity. Sin and death were born and our relationship with our Creator was destroyed…but God.

In His love and mercy, God sent His Son, The Promised Messiah into the earth as a human named Jesus of Nazareth, to be the bridge and the One to break the curse, and redeem the whole of creation. How?

By laying every curse and all of our sins upon His sinless Son. Who died on the cross, and was buried for three days and on the third rose again. Giving forgiveness of sin, eternal life and reconciliation to God; to all who will turn from their sins and trust in Him. (John 3:16)

That is the call and purpose of the church, to make this Truth known. (John 14:6) Because without it, humanity remains lost and anyone who dies without faith in Christ become eternally separated from God in hell.

Being filled and being sent

We spent our days seeking The Father, Studying the scriptures, reading life altering books and being the hands of feet of Jesus by doing local outreaches to the community.

An outreach involves going into the community and meeting a physical need, such as providing food, water and entertainment; While also simultaneously meeting a spiritual need by presenting the Gospel.

God is on the move, and I am so excited to be apart of it. We’ve seen multiple people come to faith in Christ on our outreaches and established with a local church to begin discipleship.

I want to thank everyone who has partnered in making this mission happen. I am so excited to share this journey with you all as we fulfill the Great Commission. Stay tuned for all that The Lord is doing while I’m here in Mexico.

If you would like to partner with me as I serve with Saving Grace World Missions , I would love if you would pray for me and the team as we seek to serve in Mexico.
