You've Done So Much

As I was looking through pictures this morning to share an update with you, I felt a deep sense of gratitude. Your generosity and heart have made so much possible.

You’re creating experiences, places, and opportunities where youth and young adults in Mexico can discover and live their purpose.

Here are just a few of the things you’ve helped make happen recently:

1. One of our students earned hiselementary graduation certificate

2. We broughtmusic educationinto more lives

3. Several of our adult students received theirEnglish Level 1 certificates

4. Weopened a new English class for kids

5. Westarted a chicken coopto help with sustainability

6. We cared for thebanana groveand thepermaculture garden

Every one of these moments exists because of your donations, your time, and your prayers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

A huge thank you for your donations and volunteer hours that have made so much possible so far!

Venue Needed in Utah

For the past three years, ourUtah fundraising bazaarhas helped us raise funds for materials and supplies that support the work in Mexico.

We’ll be inIdaho and Utah from mid-December through January, and we’d love to host another one!

If you know of an event or venue where we could sell homemade Christmas gifts to raise funds, please let me know.

I’ll also have copies of my new book —The Compass: Find Your Path – Mission #1— available for purchase!

We’d also love volunteersto make homemade treats or gifts to sell at the bazaar.
