Here is a space for sharing with our supporters, friends, family and others about our ministry in Puebla, México and about our personal lives.
"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. Jesus in John 15:5 NIV.
Dear Friends We finished the ministry activities for the semester with a Christmas dinner with the students involved with CRU in Puebla. One student even brought a piñata, we all had a great time togeather. We also took a time to meditate in the real meaning of Christmas, where God become man and came to the world to save us. We encoraged the students that during their vacation they can enjoy this incredible fact with their family!
This past year we have had many challenges, dificulties, triumphs, and joys; and thru all of it we saw that God was with us. We thank God because this year we received our second child, Ian Andres. We are also grateful that our energetic little Leah celebrated her 2nd birthday. We are very excited to see what God has in store for us this coming year.
We also want to thank God for you and your prayers and financial giving, without you we could not do what we are doing and we thank you so much for partnering with us in reaching college students in Mexico and the world with the life transforming messege of the gospel !
Merry Christmas!
Luis, Liz,Leah, and Ian Pomares

Thanksgiving 2013
Dear Friends and family, We celebrated Thanksgiving with our national director's family and we invited the students involved with Vida Estudiantil (CRU) to join us. Our kids had a great time playing, and we also enjoyed the whole evening with the students. For almost all of them it was their first Thanksgiving and they tried for the first time foods like stuffing, cranberry sauce, gravy, deviled eggs, and pumpkin pie. We planned for about 15 (maybe 20) to come, but 30 showed up! Fortunately we had just the right amount of food, but there weren't many leftovers. Even though we weren't with our families , we have a wonderful time thanking God for His goodness, mercy, love, and provision for us. Here are some pictures.
Thank you for your support and prayers, we hope that you had a wonderful time with your loved ones.
P.S If you can´t see the pictures make sure that you have enabled your e-mail options to see them in this letter!
