Rosarito Medical Outreach — May 31st, 2008
By Deanna Thomas

In May 2008 Calvary Chapel Pasadena had the opportunity to return to Rosarito, Mexico to serve the people with a medical outreach.

As we arrived that Saturday at the location, it was an amazing sight to see the families from the community and neighboring communities lined up and waiting patiently to enter. The members of CCP were putting the final touches on setting up the site, and preparing for a day filled with various activities and services. The gates were opened and the people poured in. Almost immediately, every corner of the site was filled with kids, adults and even their pets.

Many served in a variety of different areas throughout the day. Some served in the kitchen preparing food while others gave haircuts. What a blessing the doctors, dentists, chiropractors, serving tirelessly throughout the day. Evangelistic skits were performed, worship played and messages were given which provided a powerful and clear presentation of the gospel and how Jesus Christ has the power to save sinners and transform lives. It was an incredible sight to witness people of all ages accepting the Lord. It was a huge blessing and honor to serve the people of Rosarito. Something special happens to believers when they are given an opportunity to serve the Lord outside of their usual surroundings. Traveling to a foreign country definitely tests and removes us from our comfort zones and presents unusual ways for the Lord to use us. The lord reveals to us our God given gifts that so many of us would never have used or discovered under normal circumstances. My prayer is that we may all rise to our call and serve God.

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in Heaven — Matthew 5:16
