25th Anniversary......

Last weekend, something amazing happened here in Tijuana, Mexico!!

We Celebrated 25years of the Homes of Hope ministry, building houses for families here in Mexico that are in great need for homes.
This was a small idea about a year ago and last week it came about, we didn't know quite how it would all come together as it seemed impossible to build 25 Homes in one weekend but God is bigger than our thoughts....
So we Celebrated in style....

We are latino at heart so we celebrated with a big party for 3 days!! For 2 days about 400 or more people came form different places, who have been involved in Homes of Hope in the past and we hosted them and we all went out and built 25 Homes for the families and we did this in 2 days!!
Usually a busy weekend build is 8 Houses, but we managed to do 25 houses!!!

This was crazy but so much fun to be a part of this event!!

Knowing that 25 families received homes and that we can celebrate the 5,000 homes that have been built over the last 25years here in Tijuana Mexico!!

Homes of Hope started with one man that was obedient to God and said yes i will build that family a home  they need one, so when Sean went and built this home for a family in need, he took his family to, His daughter was very young and was playing with the local children and saw that they didn't have a home either and said "Daddy can we build this family a home too?" This was the beginning of the last 25years of Homes of Hope that started in 1990!!

God is faithful to one mans obedience, who saw a need and met it!!

We ended our celebration of sunday with 800-1000 gusts come to our home here in Tijuana and celebrate with us, what God has done!! We had children from the local school come and sing, the children fem our ministries come and dance and sing too...

We had music, the nationals anthem, special guests, pastors from all over Tijuana, we had visitors from Hawaii, Costa Rica, you name it everywhere!!

Homes of Hope Tijuana grew so much that we also run Homes of Hope international, so we are growing and building homes in more than 10 other countries too!!

It's amazing what God does when we say "Yes"!!!



So heres to the Next 25 years of Homes of Hope ministry who knows what is next!!
