Almost there...

It's Wednesday morning and we've had breakfast at the hotel, packed up, met for about an hour as a team to share and pray before wiating for the call from Madelyn, the Director of Josiah and Bethany Children's Home. She will call us when she reaches the border (maybe 11 AM Central?) and then we'll essentially be on our way!

During our time together this morning, Dave shared from Mark 4 about the parable of the sower. The act of scattering seeds is such a simple thing and the return can be enormous. We are here to humbly and obediently scatter the seeds of God's Word and love to those at the home and others in Reynosa. We are so excited to embrace every moment here as servants who are ready and attentive to the needs of others around us.

Thank you for your continued prayers. I'm sure we will post more later in the day or evening when things settle down. We'll also see if we can have someone from each family post throughout the trip.

More to come!

Dear McBIC Team,
So glad to hear your travels are going smoothly. May God's blessing rest on each of you as you sow seeds and bring blessing to His church in Reynosa!
We will continue our prayers,

Isaiah 55:10-11
