Cancun Christian Fellowship 6/29/2011 Newsletter

Our Mission: We are servants of God by serving others. We share a responsibility to bring God's love to hurting people. We are an outreach fellowship of believers dedicated to showing the people of the Yucatan Peninsula, through our teaching, actions and love, the life changing power of Jesus Christ.

If you are considering a commodity donation to Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza, here are some items that are currently needed:

If you have a clothing donation for our children, please give it to Cherilyn for sorting and sizing.

“He has great tranquility of heart who cares neither for the praises nor the fault-finding of men. He will easily be content and pacified, whose conscience is pure. You are not holier if you are praised, nor the more worthless if you are found fault with. What you are, that you are; neither by word can you be made greater than what you are in the sight of God.”  Thomas a Kempis

We are very happy to report that Cancun Christian Fellowship has received another financial donation from Teresa Weatherly to benefit our children at Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza. We always say this but maybe someday it will happen; “Teresa, we hope you join us in the very near future.” Thank you for your continued support and faith in our Mission Outreach.

With the financial help of our worldwide Mission Partners, volunteers from Cancun Christian Fellowship purchased and delivered a week’s supply of eggs, cheese, chicken, chorizo, pork, milk and jelly to our Cancun Christian home. Groceries are purchased and delivered every Wednesday. If you would like to make a donation to the Casa Hogar Food Fund, please tell Cherilyn or Tom.

We are saddened to report that the Wagner family and members of the Gonzalez family will be leaving our Sunday Service and Christian Fellowship and departing for destinations in the United States. The Wagner’s will be heading back to work and home in Colorado and Trish Gonzalez and her beautiful daughters will be heading to California so the girls can continue their education. It is our understanding that Ricky Gonzalez will remain a part of our group as his work schedule allows. We will miss all of you and hope you come back to us soon. No matter where you are, you are part of our family.

“Resentment and gratitude cannot coexist, since resentment blocks the perception and experience of life as a gift. My resentment tells me that I don't receive what I deserve. It always manifests itself in envy."  Henri J. M. Nouwen

Last week’s Mission Partners work group at our Cancun Christian orphanage was absolutely fantastic. The Hatfield’s and the Hollander’s are amazing families and we are extremely pleased to have them as Mission Partners. Words cannot express our appreciation to them for their work and their fellowship. Henry, Katherine and Santiago assisted but it was clear from the start that our new Mission Partners were in complete control. Thank you and may our Father bless you and all you do in His service.

While we are on the subject, we have received inquiries from other Christian groups in the United States that have found and are following our work through our website, blogsite and facebook and desire to join us as Mission Partners in our Christian Mission Outreach. Our Father continues to provide for our children.

Remember: This Sunday, July 3rd is our Pizza luncheon at Shakey’s Pizza. We will meet at Malecon las Americas at 1:00. All church members and Mission Partners are invited to attend and there is a playground for the children. Come hungry and have fun with your Cancun Christian family. We hope to see all of you there.

It was great having Prince Turner in attendance last week. Prince, we have missed you.

Kim Wagner has suffered a mishap with her foot and is currently in pain and experiencing a lack of mobility. Please keep Kim in your prayers.

“I was regretting the past and fearing the future. Suddenly God was speaking: "My name is I am." I waited and God continued: "When you live in the past, with its mistakes and regrets, it is hard. I am not there. My name is not I was. When you live in the future, with its problems and fears, it is hard. I am not there. My name is not I will be. When you live in this moment, it is not hard. I am here. My name is I AM." Helen Mellincost

We trust all of you are enjoying our much needed rain. Besides the greening effect and dust control, the rain makes sleeping in a non-air conditioned casa a pleasure.

This Sunday’s service will be presented by Mark Shook and Dr. Damon Shook and is titled “The Secret to Satisfaction”. Bring the children and enjoy the Service.

Esther Mancilla is out of the hospital and getting as much rest as possible at the home. All will agree that she is a remarkable lady. We ask you to Please keep her in your prayers.
