Books I've read.

This last month I've finished 3 of David Murrow's books:  Why Men Hate Church, The Map and How Women Help Men Find God. While I'm still trying to process most of the information and challenges presented I am asking myself what does a man friendly church look like? Are there really more women in our churches than men? Studies show that there is.Murrow says that just a Men's Bible Study or a Men's Prayer Group really isn't men's ministry. Then how do we encourage men to come church?

I watched this video today, tell me what you think.

Changes - Who likes them?

If your on our quarterly newsletter mailing list or follow us on facebook, you probably already know that our mission agency CAM International is changing it's name and look this year. We have have to say that while we do change well it's not always easy. Fortunately for us we've only been with CAM for a short time so this change is easy.

Camino Global will be the new name and here's a link to the new sight. Camino Global

Below is the new logo. By clicking here you can learn more about it.

And of course as partners in our ministry if you have any questions about how that effects you / us please e-mail us, call us or message us on facebook.

The Path Ahead

Recently we took a trip up to the snow line with some friends. Getting up to the pass and to the base of the dormant volcano only took an 90 minutes. The hike up took longer(3 hours) mainly because... we got sidetracked and missed the main trail. Aren't we supposed to take the path least traveled? While we did get a little off the path we had great company and an awesome view. The peak behind is Popocatépetl an active volcano and, at 5,426 m (17,802 ft), the second highest peak in Mexico. Popocatépetl is linked to the Iztaccihuatl volcano to the north by a high saddle known as the Paso de Cortés. The pass is only 25 miles from Puebla. 

In February we celebrated two years living here in Puebla. The first two years of here we focused mainly on learning the language, culture, making friends and just trying to figure out how to live life here and starting our martial arts ministry. I can't say that we are fluent in Spanish and we know everything there is to know about Mexico and how to live here. I can say with confidence that we can communicate well enough that we don't get as many funny looks as when we first arrived. I say I feel like a two year old because I can understand and follow most conversations and give some input to keep it going just like a two year old.

So what lies on the path ahead for the Prusia family? Watching God grow the martial arts ministry. A trip to the US for 45 days this summer. Two teams coming to work with us here in Puebla (from the US). But most importantly trying to stay focused on God and following the path he has laid before us.

Proverbs 16:9 (NIV) "In their hearts humans plan their course, but the LORD establishes their steps."

Oh, we hope to keep this blog updated so you can follow our journey.
