May Newsletter

Once again, I am getting our newsletter out a little later than I wanted.  This past month got extremely crazy (as most Mays get).  I have been busy helping with some leadership and preached at the church while the pastor is on a long vacation.  Getting ready for the Bicycle Round-Up proved to be more work than I had planned.  I repaired most of the bikes that were donated and built some ramps and a teeter-totter for the bike obstacle couse.  It ended up being worth it.  The event was a hit with the neighborhood kids. 
We passed out flyers door to door and met some  kids and adults that we had not met before.  I am not sure how many bikes we gave away, traded, and repaired, but we were going non-stop for 4 hours!  One of the cool things that happened was that I had asked one of the teens who hangs out at the after school center to help repair bikes that day.  It was cool to watch him help others and have a positive experience.  One woman commented that is it great that we do the bike event and that now her teenage son will be riding his bike all summer.

 We are winding down La Paz House this next week and will be getting the church ready for the summer.  It has been a good but trying year at La Paz House, but Dana and I have had a lot of conversations with the kids about respect, responsibility, and God’s love.  With La Paz Kid’s Summer Program and Youthworks missions trip starting soon, there is hardly a break in the activity around here. 

Thank you for all that you do for our ministry. 
Dana and I appreciate your prayers and support. 
We are looking and praying for a great summer of ministry around here!

La Paz de Dios,
Lee & Dana
