One Love Skate to Ensenada, Mexico with Calvary South Maui

One Love Merch for Ensenada, Mexico
What's up One Love Skate?!
     Earlier this week, I was praying with our staff at our church for vision for One Love Skate, and I wasn't sure what all would be going on as this summer is packed for me at PBC with preaching, youth & young adult ministry, family ministry, and youth camp. Plus we're starting AWANA in the fall at PBC, and that makes for a super busy summer. 

Sovereignly, the Lord answered my prayers with a call from Jeff at Calvary Chapel South Maui. He asked to set up a conference call for ideas on how to minister to skateboarders in Mexico, and after talking we decided to send their team to Mexico with some t-shirts, stickers, tracts, and a skateboard deck.

They plan to use these resources to build relationships and share Jesus with skaters they come in contact with during their surf and skate ministry mission June 8-17th. It's fun to see God use One Love Skate to help people meet Jesus internationally. 


Please keep the Mexico Mission team in your prayers as they travel to Ensenada, Mexico, next week. 
Specific prayer requests:
  • Safe travel and uneventful border crossings
  • The visit to Carmen Serdan would be an encouragement to the staff and orphans
  •  The team’s work on the construction projects on the CC Ensenada Bible College campus would be extremely productive
  •  Visits to the orphanage and shelter in Ensenada would be a blessing to the staff, children and residents
  •  The Surf and Skate Outreach would attract many people who will hear about and receive Jesus as their Savior.
  • Boldness and courage to share the love of Jesus with others
      Also, please pray that, by God's grace, they can build something that lasts (Nehemiah 2:18). Please pray many people will meet Jesus Christ and that those around them will benefit from the work God does in and through them.

      Please pray for them, and please continue to pray for life-change and revival on Maui through One Love Skate. Seek The Most High is going well lately  (http://oneloveskateoutreach.blogspot.com/2012/04/seek-most-high.html). I'm also encouraged to hear of people giving away One Love Skate tracts and having conversations about Jesus with people. You can pray for God's timing on when the next One Love Skate Event will be.

    One Love (1 John 4:9),

 "And I told them of the hand of my God that had been upon me for good, and also of the words that the king had spoken to me. And they said, 'Let us rise up and build.' So they strengthened their hands for the good work."

Seek the Most High

What's up Christ-followers,
      Have you ever read the Bible?
      If a girl or guy you liked wrote you a letter, wouldn't you want to read it all the way through?
     
Well, God, the Creator of the Universe, has written us a 66 book love letter, and it's packed with truth that brings purpose, hope, and joy to our lives.

    Starting next Friday, April 20, 2012 - April 20, 2013, we're going to begin a one year journey through God's Word called SEEK THE MOST HIGH.

Proverbs 4:20 - "My son, pay attention to what I say; listen closely to my words."

     You can copy this plan to your computer, print it out, or look at it regularly online. Below is the link for a Monday-Friday reading plan that includes something every day from the Old and New Testaments, Psalms and Proverbs.

As we learn new things about God, we can share what God's teaching us via the www.OneLoveSkateOutreach.com blog and using other social media.

Pray about if this is something you want to join in on.

Some of you might want to just jump on with a commitment to study just the New Testament if you've already read the whole Bible and feel strapped for time.

However God leads you, let's let this be a time to really hear from our Heavenly Father and listen closely to His words.

Intentionally, let's SEEK THE MOST HIGH together and get to know the God of the Universe better over the next year.

Grace & Peace,
Josh

April 7 Event Pictures

Here are a few pictures from last Saturday's event on April 7, 2012.
Because God's been gracious and loves us, we want to love others and care for our community (Matthew 22:36-40).

We had live rap about Jesus the whole time.
Sam Peralta led some fun games, talked about Easter, and had the skaters get in different small groups with YWAMers that prayed with many of the kids.

We had a carve competition on the vert with cones, a manual competition, a jumping jack competition, and a highest ollie competition.
 We also had the privelege of giving away a bunch of t-shirts, stickers, Bibles, pizza, and water.

The weather was nice, and it was a good time. Thanks for praying. For more pics, click here: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.596791738516.2056416.110500829&type=3&l=b87d71687d
