Consuelo center.

Consuelo means HOPE in spanish:)

Today we went to the Hope Center and cleaned! They don't have a hired cleaning crew so the workers there have to clean everything themselves! They offer free pregnancy tests and free ultrasounds. They reach out to any age of girl or women of any race, from any different walk of life. We split up teams and finished in about an hour! Thanks to Santiago we had professional equipment to use and plenty of gloves to wear! They are moving to a new location soon and we are hoping to be able to help them with their move any way possible. They accepted us with arms wide open and we are very thankful to really get to help them out today! We then later went back to the assisted living and bowled with a few of our friends we made last time! Yes, we are trying to show the world the love of God but the fellowship and the lives that God has put together to walk down this path together is awesome. These are some amazing believers, and we are hoping to see it grow:) its awesome how He works like this:)

Bingo! Lets go to the Assisted Living!

Last saturday (January 30) we went to an assisted living and just hung out. We met some amazing people one of the prime examples is above Richard. He captured all of our hearts and he use to love to bowl so today we bought a plastic bowling kit and took it to him and bowled with him and everyone else who wanted to. We had a lot of fun and love going there! We all made special friends and even though sometimes they don't remember us when we go back but they enjoy us just as much as the first time we went. Our whole mission when we started this whole lifestyle/ministry was to make everything we did not just a one time deal and try and preach the gospel everytime we want to form relationships and get to know people and just love them.




We also stuck around longer and played BINGO with them! They absolutly loved it! We even got to bring some of the people from the Alzheimers unit and got them to play too!! One of the ladys (Ms. Joyce) won a game!




They even let LP call out the Bingo numbers all by himself!

After we were done playing and hanging out with all these awesome people we went back to the church and decided to "wipe the place down" just to show our appreciation of everything that they provide for us. Pastor Matt has always supported us and we are very greatful to have such a passionate and determined leader to look up to.
