SMO Ensenada 2015 Day 1

Almost dinner time!!

We have arrived in Ensenada, Mexico. It was a long travel day starting at 345am when the first flight team arrived at Pittsburgh International Airport. With half awake students and leaders checking in to get boarding passes, going through TSA security and waiting for our flights to depart, there was  passion and vision for what the mission trip to Mexico was going to in-tale. So, we took our flights out to San Diego, California where we were expecting wonderful weather. As we arrived, we were met by some major torrential downpours of rain. But the rain would not stop our progress. We loaded our luggage into our vans and headed to our favorite lunch stop in California, In & Out Burger. This restaurant always serves as a bench mark in the trip. It is a place filled with great food, laughter and more memories for years to come.

Gathering our luggage in San Diego

We left not so sunny San Diego to head for the border crossing into Mexico. Thank you Lord for no long stops or hold ups at the border. The added blessing the Lord gave to us was clear sky all the way to Ensenada. God was preparing the way for a better time where we were going.





As we arrived at the Center in Ensenada, were greeted joyfully by the interns and staff of the C&MA  Ensenada Envision site. We were able to unpack, get settled in and enjoy a wonderful Mexican dinner after our orientation.

As the mission trip moves forward, there are going to be many things asked of us. In doing so, we are fulfilling the plan God intended to use us for. As the blog gets updated, please be in prayer for our students, leaders, the missionaries, the interns, and the people of Ensenada. May God use us this week to expanded His kingdom in a powerful way. Thanks!! Let's GO BUCS!!!
