Many of “Our Girls” on the inside are murderers, kidnappers, prostitutes, drug-addicts and much more. They have lived on the edge of society, always one step away from rejection. Jesus gladly associated with sinners because He loved them and He knew they needed to hear what He had to say. By bringing the Good News, through the Celebrate Recovery program, to “Our Girls” on the inside, we see God changing lives one broken person at a time, healing them emotionally, physically and mentally.
Many have turned to Jesus and asked Him to forgive their sins so they can become Christ-like filled with love, humility, truth and service. Not only does the CR program lead people to a relationship with Jesus Christ, it also instructs them how to clean up their behaviors.
After returning to Mexico in July, International gospel singer Nancy Unsworth, her family, my cousin Rae-Ann and her son Aiden joined us for ten exciting days of ministry. Each of our guests came to Mexico believing God had something special in store for them.
On July 27th seven of “Our Girls” on the inside found the strength to take the next step in their walk with Jesus by being baptized. The baptism event was spectacular.

Nancy shared her powerful story of God's mercy in her life and sang during the baptism event
Rae-Ann helped in many ways including handing out personal gift bags to each of "Our girls" before they returned to their cells
God uses people with simple faith to accomplish his great purposes, no matter what kind of past they come from. Rae-Ann and Nancy did not allow their broken pasts to keep them from the new roles God had assigned them. Both shared their powerful stories of God’s redemptive love in their lives at various ministry sites. Ten incredible days of ministry and so many lives were touched.
Thank you Unsworth and Zygadlo families for helping serve at our first ever Celebrate Recovery wedding.

We need your prayers. Churches and Correctional Institutes are seeking the Celebrate Recovery program. Pray God send us more facilitators and leaders to carry the program across Mexico. We have VISION beyond our resources. Would you pray about becoming a financial partner with the Recovery Ministry? Pray for more monthly supporters for the Recovery Ministry (at present we are at 40% of our monthly budget).
Rod and I are so grateful for each of you, our ministry partners. None of the ministry we take part in could happen without your help. Your prayers, words of encouragement and financial gifts have kept us on the field doing what God has called us to do. Your job is as important as ours. He may have called us to go, but He has called you to be our senders.
