As our team returns home from Baja, our hearts are full. We wanted to share with you how God answered prayers and moved in extraordinary ways. Our week began worshiping alongside local believers at our partner church, Harvest Cabo Church. One of our young adults, Chase, accepted the invitation to preach at the local church. It was incredible to watch God use him to boldly proclaim His Word. Throughout the week, other young team members also stepped out in faith by sharing their testimonies and helping lead ministry. God is raising up this next generation to make disciples!
One of the most impactful moments came as the church gathered to pray over Tracy, a faithful believer who has been battling terminal liver cancer for five years and was given one month to live. Despite her diagnosis, she had a joy and unwavering trust in the Lord. Please pray for Tracy and her family.

An Eternal Impact
Monday launched our ministry in two impoverished communities where we partnered with local churches to lead Vacation Bible School, visit homes, and share the hope of Christ. Each day, attendance at VBS grew as children filled the churches with laughter, songs, games, crafts, and Bible lessons. Our teams also delivered solar lights, first aid kits, and Bibles while sharing the Gospel with families throughout the barrios.
God faithfully answered our prayers for open hearts. Throughout the week, dozens of individuals prayed to receive Jesus, while countless others heard the Gospel and had seeds of hope planted that we trust God will continue to grow.
Each evening, we joined the local church for evangelism and discipleship gatherings, encouraging believers to abide in Christ and boldly share their faith. We were especially blessed to serve alongside Pastor Ramón, Venecia, and their family, whose generous hospitality and faithfulness left a lasting impression on our team.
One of the greatest highlights of the trip was celebrating an entire family get baptized! Then after, the translator who was helping with the baptisms rededicated his own life! It was a beautiful reminder that God is still transforming lives and building His Church.

Ongoing Prayers and Lasting Effects
As we said our goodbyes, we realized once again that mission trips don’t just impact the communities we serve.. they transform those who go. We came to encourage others, but we left encouraged by the faith, generosity, and joy of the believers we met.
Thank you for praying, giving, and partnering with us. Every child who heard the Gospel, every family we visited, every conversation, every profession of faith was made possible because of your support.
Please continue praying for Pastor Ramón, Harvest Cabo Church, and the communities we served. Pray that those who placed their faith in Christ will continue to grow and that the seeds planted this week will bear lasting fruit.
Would you like to experience this eternal impact? We would love to have you join us on a future trip! We currently have spots open for a men’s trip to Cuba in October. You can view all upcoming trips on our website: reel-life.org.
We are so grateful to have you as part of this mission!
Until the nets are full,
