Matthew
25:40 The King will reply, 'Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the
least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for
me.'
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.

“I
don't want to live in the kind of world where we don't look out for each other.
Not just the people that are close to
us, but anybody who needs a helping hand. I can’t change the way anybody else thinks, or
what they choose to do, but I can do my bit.”
Charles de
Lint
If you have clothing
or commodity contributions to support our work, please contact Cherilyn Martin. We sort all clothing before delivery. Strive to make sure all items offered are
clean and serviceable. Please ask
yourself this question: Would you allow
your family to wear the clothes in public?

“Never
underestimate the difference YOU can make in the lives of others. Step forward, reach out and help. This week reach to someone that might need a
lift” Pablo
WOW!!! Over the past 2 weeks, we delivered two large
bags of clothing to CIDA along with six large bags of clothing, two large bags
of shoes and two large bags of toys to City of Joy. The donation came from one of our loving
mission partners and, as you might guess, we were overwhelmed by their
generosity.
“Every
day, God grants us the precious gift of life. Yet every day, we squander it with our
selfish, petty concerns, rather than helping someone as He helps us.” Kirn
Hans
A local mission
partner, the manager of a Cancun beauty school, continues to furnish beauticians
to cut hair at CIDA every other Tuesday.
Besides performing a much needed service, their work helps restore some
dignity to the lives of the residents of CIDA.
“The
way you treat people who are in no position to help you, further you, or benefit
you reveals the true state of your heart.” Mandy
Hale
This week, we
received a substantial donation of vitamins and toothbrushes and we are very
grateful. A small gesture with a huge
impact. Both items are desperately
needed by the residents of CIDA.
“No one
is useless in this world who lightens the burdens of another.” Charles
Dickens

"Life"
is a gift to you. The way you live your life is your gift to those who come
after. Mike
Today marks the
countdown…one month until Christmas Day.
For the past eleven months, we have told you what we want to do and have
done for the less fortunate that our father has placed in our care. Now is the time of the year that we ask for
your financial help. Our goals for
Christmas are much larger than seasons past.
It is a huge undertaking but, with your help, it will be the best
Christmas ever. Our Christian Mission
Outreach currently encompasses:
1. 9 children at Casa
Hogar
2. 10 mothers and children at City of
Joy
3. 121 residents of
CIDA
Our goal is to
furnish Christmas gifts for 140 and to provide Christmas dinner for the 121
residents of CIDA.
As you can see, we
truly need your help. No donation is too
large or too small and all donations will be appreciated.
If you need
additional information, please do not hesitate to contact
us.

“You
either choose to help others, or you don't choose to help others... THERE IS NO
IN-BETWEEN!” Martin R.
Lemieux
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.
“Doing
nothing for others is the undoing of ourselves.” Horace
Mann
