Our mission team has safely arrived in La Palmilla Mexico!\u00a0 For the next two weeks they will be working with our Mexican friends to help complete the construction of their sanctuary.\u00a0 The church in La Palmilla is a United Methodist Church that’s bursting at the seams.\u00a0 There’s not a lot of funding for a construction project in that village, but there is a lot of love for Christ and a lot of desire to share His Word.<\/p>\n

One of the Mission Team members, Chris Valianti, posted the following picture of the team on his Facebook timeline:<\/p>\n

The team worked hard \"LaPalmilla15<\/a>digging a trench and relocating all the dirt that was dug out. We also washed a few of the windows that were ready after the purging was finished. It was a good first day.”<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\t\t
