Called by God in a dream
to the stinger-end of a long
and narrow Tijuana valley,
called Scorpion's Canyon...
Where nothing and no one
thrive,
Where trash and flies go
to die
...a poor Mexican teacher
built a holy church because
God said they are coming,
many headed home.
A City of God was the dream,
A Mexican border church
the reality
Seeking freedom in America,
wave after wave of migrants
found much more than asylum,
finding a safety for eternity...
Thousands ransomed for God,
Every tribe, language and
nation
...seeing in all their running,
realizing in all their losing,
besides having one another,
all they really need is God.¹
Matthew 28:18b-20
Acts 1:8
Revelation 5:9
¹the Iglesia Embajadores
de Jesus, pastored
by Gustavo Banda...the rest
of the dream is
to offer homes, a school,
a hospital, a work
-skills training center,
a seminary and a
children's park. The reality
is what we do
to help. Amen!? |
