Welcome to our Blog!
















This blog is where we will be sharing stories along our adventure as missionaries. We also hope that it is informative about what God is doing here on the Baja. Let me start with where we are located. We live in a small town called Ejido Uruapan off of Highway 1, the main road that runs north to south on the Baja. We are half an hour south of Ensenada, two and a half hours from the border and about four hours from Los Angeles.

The air is clear in this small rural town surrounded by beautiful hills. Driving through our town, first you will notice the bumpy roads and lots of dust, big boulders scattered on the hills and the workers in the fields tending to the various crops. Roses, grapevines, squash, cabbage, beans, goats, chickens, pigs, horses, dust, dust, and more dust...

Why are we here? Nic and I, trusting that God was leading us to Mexico, made the move in February of this year. We are primarily here to help host groups who come to Bethesda Mission. We also help with the Mount of Olives Children's Village, a place for children who are orphaned or in need of a loving, safe home. We see God at work here and are excited to be a part of it. If you are interested, you can read more about how Missions Network International got its start with these two ministries at www.missions-network.org.

And we hope that you will come visit, and see it for yourself.
