Ministry on the East Side of Town.
This trip was more diverse than any I’ve been on. We came with open minds and open hearts, we went from place to place and not only was our first mission to bless the people of Mexico, but the people and especially the children of Mexico blessed us. We grew close with all of the kids and learn how to trust each other. I am really glad the trip wasn’t one aspect of missions, but it was diverse and that made it special. –Phil

This missions trip to Mexico was the best trip I went on out Haiti and the Dominican Republic. The children became so attached to us and I smiled every second I was with them. One of the best moments on the missions trip was the men’s rehab. When we went these couple of them shared their testimonies. Vicente was one of the men who shared. He wanted to open another rehab center around the area. Another highlight of the trip is when Adalberto shared his testimony with the team. His testimony made me very very thankful of what I have back home and all my parents do for me. –Brenny

This missions trip was a blessing because it was different from the other missions trip I have been on. The difference was the kids and I really liked that factor because we blessed the children so much with our ministry that they clinged to us as if we were family. But I have come to realize that we all are family and helping our brothers and sisters come to know the Lord and encouraging them to like the Christian life should be done every day and that is why I am thankful for this opportunity to do missions. I loved the smiles and seeing the joy in them. Those actions had told me that we have done God’s will. – Brian
Praying in the Streets
Coming to Bethel was an awesome experience for me. I felt that all the places we were taken made a difference in my life. The opportunity to pray for people and meet them was a blessing. Just to be able to love on the kids and receive love from them gave me more of God’s compassion for those who are hurting. The staff blessed us with their testimonies and gave me a bigger measure of faith to keep on going. – Rosamy
VBS with the Bethel Kids
I will try to be brief. There is so much to give Glory to God for. I work in full time ministry. I am a licensed minister with the A/G. I work with drug addicts, with families in crisis. I got very comfortable in my routine, and during this time, my vision expanded and my heart melted before God, For He is a consuming fire. Never cried so much in a week, since I have been with Caring Hearts, God has truly blessed me, by giving me much of His heart, compassion and urgency to continue to pour out my life for His Kingdom. I love the people here, Ken, Juana, Isabella, Adalberto, Marcelo, and of course the Niños. I thank God for the encouragement they give to me, just by sharing their lives. I am very excited to bring a team back here from Teen Challenge, praying will be a blessing to this ministry. – Tabatha

When we went to the shut-ins I really liked the whole concept of the ministry. It felt good knowing we went out of our way to go to them. One of the woman, she had breast cancer, I specially felt like she really was touched. I was able to pray for her in English, and by the end she was crying and we hadn’t even translated it. To me, that goes to show how God’s power presence is not hindered by any language barrier. – Hanna

Typically at home I’m very involved in children’s ministry. But I was very blessed to come here and have the opportunity to be involved in so much more. I was particularly blessed at the woman’s rehab center. After performing a skit my team and I prepared, a woman approached one of our team members and with tears in her eyes told us that she had personally done that drama 5 times but now she finally understood what it meant. Being out of my element (at the rehab center doing the drama) was definitely a stretching experience that truly blessed me!! Thanks Caring Hearts – Rebecca
Talking to folks in the street.
I really would like to thank God for letting me have a first missions experience like I had there with Caring Hearts. God is definitely here and his presence fills this place daily. One experience I really enjoyed was the last Church service we had here at Bethel. God spoke to me by sending a messenger to tell me to continue to do great things because He is expected to do great things in my life. I love the kids, love the atmosphere and love the food! Would like to thank everyone at Caring Hearts and Bethel for a well done first missions trip for me. Never going to forget what a blessing it was waking up and hearing the sounds of the kids laughing and playing. Great memory and I pray God bless you all abundantly. – Brittany
Ministry in the Rehab Center
Where do I begin: The first Church service where one of the children, Danielito climbed up on my lap and fell asleep. He woke my heart. But I guess it would have to be at the Men’s rehab when we gathered in backyard and shared testimonies and scriptures and after sharing a passage of Scripture one of the men gave testimony and said how the Word confirmed what God had been speaking to him. We had a time of prayer and the power of God was so powerful! The next night a few of them came to service at Bethel. The last day we dropped off some package and said how blessed they were to see us and hear the Word of the Lord. It was just a God thing all the way! Awesome Ministry have Caring Hearts- Staff are the best. love the Lord with all their hearts and are humble servants! Thank you for allowing us to come alongside with you! Blessings – Maureen
