Mexico Revival

In the fall of 2007 I traveled to the state of Tamaulipas, Mexico with my friends Mike Easton and Tony Murrell.  From October 15 through 20, we held nightly revival meetings in three locations. Mike held meetings in Rio Bravo, mine were in Valle Hermoso, and Tony’s series was in Reynosa. The meetings were coordinated by Nic Garza with help from Pastor Trevino and Pastor Martinez of the East Gulf Conference of Seventh-Day Adventists in Mexico.

I had a wonderful time and met so many great people.  I was truly humbled by the people I met.  In Valle Hermoso the people treated me like royalty and everyone wanted to feed me.  Every night the church was packed even though the temperatures were in the 90's and there was no air conditioning.  I have wanted to return to the area, but there are safety issues.  Someday I hope to return.

Here are some photos that we took on our trip.
