Mexico City: Week One (and a half)

Well, I've now officially been on Outreach since last Wednesday and it has really been a blessing so far! We took a 14 hour-long bus ride to get here on Tuesday night and we arrived Wednesday morning. The whole DTS came and stayed with us here in Mexico City for a few days so that people could see the city and maybe catch a heart for it and decide to help launch the YWAM Base that my school leader is planting at the end of this year. The first few days we mainly just took it easy and did what I would call some "missionary sight-seeing" which includes praying over the city wherever we go. At one point we were outside of a castle in the city and the Lord opened up an opportunity for us to somewhat hijack a clown's street performance and do a drama and share the Gospel in front of a huge crowd that was watching him. Since the Central America team left we have been going at a pretty good pace, which has included things like putting on a couple childrens' programs, doing evangelism around the church we are staying at, and doing dramas and evangelism at a celebration of Saint Judas Tadeo where tons of young people go to worship the saint and get high off of inhalants (which by the way was a great success!) It has been so amazing to see how God has been using this Outreach up to this point. He has been moving in some huge ways! I can't wait to see how He is going to move in the rest of this time!
