Mexico Trip Report

May God bless you

I thank you for your prayers for the trip which took place from December 16 to January 8, 2011. It was a blessing for me and my family. The Lord protected us all the way, as we drove up to Miguel Auza, Zacatecas and made two stops, one in Mexicali with my father and brothers, and in San Antonio, Texas with the family of Elsa.

As previously announced a large group of church Light to the World, of Bellevue Washington went to  Zacatecas and another team to Sinaloa. This team was a great blessing in Zacatecas. Through the drama of the birth of Jesus and his purpose on this earth to save the world, many heard the gospel for the very first time and many accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. There were several setbacks along the way, and lost two days of service, but in total there were five evangelistic services in different towns and cities. Four were in the city center of these places and there was like about a thousand people in total (between children and adults) who attended these services. In addition to the main drama, they handed out sweets and toys.

Pastor Maximo Reyes was the one who hosted this group of sixteen people and organized all tjhe events. In those days there were many reports of what is happening in the area, vehicle theft, assault, kidnapping and always wherever we went we were in at least three to four vehicles for safety. Every day in the morning and evening the team prayed for the activities, for protection and anointing and the glory of God descended and renewed these young people and adults who had prepared for months in practice and collected funds for trip. Everybody was very happy and eager to return next time.

Keep praying for ECEA Ministries, we helped with the coordination of these trips and we always need volunteer interpreters to accompany us.

Sincerely,

Ildefonso Arguelles
