 “Command those who are rich in this present world…to be rich in good deeds, and to be generous and willing to share…so that they may take hold of the life that is truly life.” I Timothy 6:17-19

Our Mission: We honor God by serving others. We share a responsibility to bring God's love to hurting people. We are a Christian Mission Outreach dedicated to showing people, through our actions and love, the life changing power of Jesus Christ.

“It is never too late to be what you might have been.” George Eliot

Renovation of the 4th and final community bathroom at Casa Hogar will be completed this week. The project is looking great, and when completed, will help improve the quality of life for our children.

“Life is a grindstone. Whether it grinds us down or polishes us up depends on you.” L. Thomas Holdcroft

With the financial help of our church members and worldwide Christian Mission Partners, CCF Good Guys Henry, John and Gary were able to purchase and deliver a week’s supply of pork, molida especial, chicken, salchicha Vienna, sliced turkey, bacon, chorizo, queso Oaxaca, eggs, bread, buns, fruit and vegetables to our Christian home. Cancun Christian Fellowship purchases and delivers groceries to Casa Hogar para Ninos Esperanza every week.

“Patience and perseverance have a magical effect before which difficulties disappear and obstacles vanish.” John Quincy Adams

Our church has moved to the La Quinta Hotel Downtown and the new facility is working out great. The last several Sundays we have been blessed with great visitors and a full congregation of members. Yesterday came close to standing room only.

“Have courage for the great sorrows in life, and patience for the small ones. And when you have laboriously accomplished your daily tasks, go to sleep in peace, God is awake.” Victor Hugo

The Children’s Bible Study class has also been filled to overflowing. Laurie is doing a great job as evidenced by the children’s excitement.

“Patience is the companion of wisdom.” Saint Augustine

Yesterday’s semiannual pizza luncheon was the best ever as was evidenced by record attendance. There was plenty of food and fellowship to go around and everyone had a great time. The pizza luncheons are a wonderful way for our Cancun Christian family, along with Mission Partners and visitors to feast, fellowship and enjoy the afternoon.

“He who obtains has little. He who scatters has much.” Lao-Tzu

The children’s Valentine party as Casa Hogar is scheduled for Wednesday afternoon, February 13th at 4:45. All Mission Partners are invited to attend and assist with the festivities. For additional information, contact Cherilyn at cherilynmartin@gmail.com.

“Loss is like a closed road that forces us to turn around and find another way to our destination. Who knows what we will discover and see along the way." Geral Sittser

Our pre-church entertainment will feature Flip Pallot fly fishing for Pacific Tuna. This is a great presentation with plenty of action. Remember there is an OXXO next door to the hotel if you desire coffee, soft drinks or snacks while watching the show.

Things don’t go wrong and break your heart so you can become bitter and give up. They happen to break you down and build you up so you can be all that you were intended to be.” Charlie Jones

The purpose of tithing, found in Deuteronomy 14:22-23 (NLT), is made clear: to “teach you always to love the Lord your God.” By practicing good tithing habits, scripture tells us we are showing God our desire to put him first in our lives.

“The value of a man resides in what he gives and not in what he is capable of receiving.” Albert Einstein
