Scenes from Monterrey

Earlier this spring we took a group of Winter Texans from our church on a trip to Monterrey. Monterrey is the third largest city in Mexico and very modern. It is beautifully situated in the middle of the Sierra Madre mountain range. It also has a great need of the gospel. We currently have 3 churches in Monterrey. The one pictured here is pastored by Bro. Santiago (James). It is a mission church in the Monte Cristal subdivision of Benito Juarez. They have a growing congregation but still have needs of several things, not the least of which is a roof for their building! Also they lack pews and have set up some concrete blocks and 2x4s to seat the people.
Also pictured is their famous waterfall, Cola de Caballo (Horse Tail Falls) and the chapel at our Youth Camp at El Uro.
