A Day in TJ

July 21st a group from church headed out to Tijuana Mexico to hang out with each other, show Ryo (who is from Okinawa Japan, Pictured far top left pic and far left in the picture) another country, and be used by God to share His love with those they met.

It was truly a blessing to go on this trip because, everything they set out to do, the Lord blessed them with doing it. They headed out to Mexico around 9:00am from Corona and arrived inside Mexico around 11:30. Once in TJ (Tijuana) they got some great authentic Mexican food, and started shopping.

One thing they desired to do while in TJ was to pass out tracks and fliers to let others know about Christ and His love. However they did not have any, but they believed in faith that the Lord would open doors for them to share God's love. Well... while walking in TJ... they came to Calvary Chapel TJ. They decided to check it out.. and make long story short... They met some people from CC TJ who asked them if they could pass out fliers for an outreach they where holding the following Saturday. This was an answer to prayer.. because they where up for the challenge.. and it was totally cool, because Evangelina stepped up to the plate, and shared Christ love with all the merchants in Spanish.

So pray for the outreach being held July 28th. This outreach is actually pretty big, one in which they are actually closing down the whole street CC TJ is on. God wants to do something great.. and the group that went out to TJ was totally blessed that they could be apart of it in some little way.

Afterwards, they headed back across the border to San Diego (It took 2 hours) , and they had dinner at Seaport Village. The day was such an adventure and a blessing.

One person, who was blessed to go to TJ was Ryo. She was excited to go to another country and see Mexico. On July 23rd she left to go back home to Okinawa. Please continue to pray for her, as she heads back to Oki, to go back to school. (Below is a picture of Ryo and her mother Akiko at LAX on the day she left.)
