VWO Mexico

(Pastor Salvador leading a band)

Hello From Mexico! On Saturday I was priveleged enough to go to one of our baby churches in Mexico City. This church is ran by Pastor Salvador and they recently finished building their church building. The church is located in one of Mexico City´s poorest, hardest, sinful areas in town and as we all know thats where Victory World Outreach likes be!

Tonight we were having a concert. The other church from Mexico City was bringing a couple bands to rock the place out and support the new baby church. As a result there were over 40 visitors! Many people gave their testimonies and I am still always amazed by what God has done in so many lives around the world. One lady didn´t have any kidneys and the doctors told her every two days that she only had 48 hours to live - 6 years later she is still alive! God is good! At the end they did a 20 minute long drama - I know it was funny because people were crying laughing. Then when they were wrapping up the drama and the cast was about to get saved the pastor turned around and had everyone in the place bow their heads and close theirs eyes. 3 minutes later over 60 people were down at the altar giving their lives to Christ!

I was so amazed to see a church so far from Colorado doing EXACTLY what we do! God is still in the miracle business and we are on fire!

Pray for the churches here! Its a rough city but we have the mightiest weapon! Here is a list of the three pastors I met that we need to pray for, I will add the others as soon as I know their names and cities!

Mexico City:
Pastor Fuentes and family

Pastor Salvador and family

Xalpa (pronounced halapa):
Pastor Efrain and family


My mom and the Fuentas family singing their hearts out

Youth Service

A lot of people were in Brighton tonight for the play Broken, but youth service was still awesome :)

Collins led song service tonight, doing a good job.

Final Word Productions performed a skit about finding the right key to the door to Heaven - the only way to get to Heaven is through Jesus Christ!

Tyler preached on "Knowing Satan's Will for Your Life." Of course, God has a plan for all of our lives, but the devil tries to sneak into our hearts and ruin God's plan. We have to diligently guard our hearts everyday and stay aware that the devil will attempt to destroy God's plan for us. The Bible says that "little foxes spoil the vine," meaning that we need to guard our hearts from even the little things that seem harmless, including what we watch on TV and think about. We need to bring every thought into captivity. We also need to be sure that we are producing fruit in our lives, because if we are not, the devil will come in that way because we are not changing or growing. Spiritual barrenness leads to spiritual blindness. This sermon was great, and definitely right on time for me, and I'm sure for others too, because a lot of people went down to the altar.

Youth Spotlight: Aaron K


My name is Aaron Knodel and I am thirteen years old. I have been coming to Victory World Outreach since I was about 3 or 4 years old. I grew up in a home that served the Lord, but I always took the Lord and church like it was a big joke, and I just messed around in church. The church showed a movie series called the Big 3 (about the rapture). After the second movie they showed, they pulled the alter call and I walked down and asked Jesus into my heart as my personal Lord and Savior. I have been saved for about 2 years and I'm on fire for the Lord.
