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

Romans 10:9-11 That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved. As the Scripture says, "Anyone who trusts in him will never be put to shame."

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, tomato puree and jelly to our 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.

Thursday evening, we had the pleasure of having dinner with the Robert Hollander family and the Walt Hatfield family. You will have the opportunity to meet these special families in church this Sunday.

It was great having Kathy Turner in attendance again. We all hope Prince is able to join her this week.

After church most Sundays, several families get together for lunch and relaxing conversation. If you would like to join us (and we would love to have you), please tell Cherilyn or Tom and they will be happy to give you the current location. These lunches are usually in traditional Mexican restaurants and you will not have to take your banker along to cover your bill. It is an opportunity to spend meaningful time with your family… and yes, children are always welcome.

The Pizza Luncheon is definitely on for Sunday, July 3rd. We will meet at Shakey’s Pizza, Malecon Plaza at 1:00. Remember, all church members and Mission Partners are invited to attend and there is a playground for the children. We hope to see all of you there.

Titus 2:11-14 For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men. It teaches us to say "No" to ungodliness and worldly passions, and to live self-controlled, upright and godly lives in this present age, while we wait for the blessed hope - the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.

We have work scheduled for next week at Casa Hogar Para Ninos Esperanza. The Hollander and Hatfield families will be showing off their painting skills. The final rewards of their work will provide additional income for our Christian home.

The Lipp boys continue to keep our children in diapers. Thanks guys.

Harry Cuneaz, our newest Mission Partner, has honored us with a financial donation to our Christian home food fund and joined our list of Mission Partners. Thanks Harry, your assistance is really appreciated.

The Shawn Bandick family from Playa del Carmen has graced us with another financial donation to benefit our children. Their donation will also go to the food fund. Thanks go out to the Bandick’s for their continued support of our Mission Outreach.

This Sunday’s service will be presented by Mark Shook and is titled “A Spiritual Eye Exam”. Mark’s excellent lesson series on “Secrets” is drawing to a close and you don’t want to miss them. Bring the children and enjoy the lesson.

Ephesians 2:4-9 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions - it is by grace you have been saved. And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith - and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God - not by works, so that no one can boast.

This week’s Men’s Group lesson is titled “Are You Saved” and a lesson that all men should hear and discuss. We hope to see you there.
