Summer 2021 Ministry Update

TRIP TO THE STATES

We are so thankful that God provided the opportunity to travel to the States this summer. It was a joy to see so many of our family and friends and to report to our supporting churches. We hope we will have the chance to meet with even more of you the next time we are there. It is so encouraging to have so many churches and individuals partnering with us in the work God has given us to do here in Puebla. We know that many of you pray for us often, and we are very thankful for you.



MOVING FORWARD

We arrived back in Mexico just in time for me to participate in the wedding of one of my seminary students, Adolfo Gonzalez. It is encouraging to see God raising up ministry-minded families to serve Him here!



Over the next few weeks, we look forward to jumping back into our various ministries with our church, Puebla Bible Seminary, the children’s homes, and discipleship in Huilango. I continue to have many opportunities to preach, teach, share devotionals, and disciple believers through these ministries.

PUEBLA BIBLE SEMINARY

Classes are starting in just a few days! The students are anxious to have in-person classes again, and we are praying for a good and safe semester together. This fall I’m teaching Greek 3 (Introduction to Exegesis) and Pentateuch and Historical Books. I’m also looking forward to continuing working individually with some students to disciple them and encourage them in life and ministry. Please pray for good opportunities to pour into the lives of these students who are preparing for ministry across Mexico.



THANK YOU!

Thank you so much for your prayers and support that make our ministry here possible!

Your fellow servants,

Chris, Sarah, Mikey, and Sammy Collins

Collins Family Update: March 2022

Changing Ministry Location Many of you already know that we are planning to move back to the States in the near future. We have shared with many of you the reasons for this change, but if anyone has questions or concerns about this decision, please feel free to reach out to us. We are planning to arrive back in the States in mid-April, and we hope to see many of you then. We are currently pursuing an opportunity to serve in pastoral ministry in the northern Michigan area, and we are waiting for an answer from the church. While we patiently wait for God’s leading in our ministry change, we are continuing to serve in our ministries in Mexico, and we will continue serving via online ministry once we are back in the States. We expect to need missions support at least through the end of May, and perhaps longer depending on how God leads us in the next two months. We will do our best to keep in touch with our supporters as we learn how God is leading our family and ministry. We would ask ...

Mexico, Here We Come!

Tomorrow morning, while you will probably still be sleeping, we will begin our journey to Mexico. Our first flight is scheduled just before 5:30 AM, and we will be traveling all day with two connecting flights before we get to Puebla, Mexico tomorrow evening. We found out today that the airline we are flying with (Delta) had a major glitch in their system a couple days ago with hundreds of flights canceled, and so we are hoping and praying that our flights will not be canceled or delayed tomorrow. Please pray with us for safe and timely travel and connections tomorrow, and for patience and wisdom should we have to deal with canceled or delayed flights. Please pray for our different opportunities while we are in Mexico. We will have opportunities to meet many missionaries and other contacts in the Puebla area. We will have opportunities to see a variety of ministries and places we can serve in the future. We will have opportunities to share the gospel as I (Chris) speak at an orphanage...
