Praying for Mexico

The other weekend, 8 teens from our campus, and 4 staff (including Ruby and myself) went downtown for a prayer rally in the heart of the city. The purpose of the night was to lift up the city of Monterrey, the state of Nuevo Leon and the entire country of Mexico in prayer. It was such a powerful time of prayer and a huge encouragement to see believers from all over the city coming together without fear. When we arrived downtown I did know what to expect, but I was amazed to see over 25,000 people come out to pray! The governor was on stage, along with many other important political officials, and all of them received prayer. It was incredible to see the leaders of the city up on stage with their faces on the ground praising and crying out to God.

Please continue to pray for Mexico. Pray that Mexico's leaders will have wisdom and that God will protect the people from any violence that may try to rise up. I praise God for the unity that comes through prayer and that for one night in the city, 25,000 believers where united as their prayers echoed throughout the city and rose to the Heavens.
