HOH Vision
To reach the poor communities of Mazatlan through the building of Homes of Hope, transforming their ways of thinking through teaching Biblical principles of community development, working alongside the local church for discipleship.
How the dream was formed...
Three years ago, while YWAM Mazatlan began working with local pastors, getting to know the poor communities where they were working, Edgar Morales began imagining how incredible it would be if someone could bring hope to these communities in desperate need through building homes. After sharing with the leaders, God asked him if he would be willing to step out in faith to begin this ministry - even with his lack of experience in construction. Now one of Edgar's strongest beliefs is that God is just looking for people willing to say yes!
The Homes of Hope ministry has been an adventure since the beginning, opening up opportunities to show the love and hope of God in a practical way to many people. The original goal of houses built in the first year was 3-5 homes. God surprised us with 15 houses the first year, and 22 the second year! God's hand of blessing over the ministry has been confirmed over and over again and we look forward to more dreams that God has!

Hope for Haiti
In light of everything that has been going on in Haiti after the earthquake, Haiti has truly been on our hearts. After the hurricanes there in 2008, we sent an outreach team to work with the YWAM bases in the country. They had the opportunity to serve the YWAMers and Haitian people, help with hurricane relief work, and make lasting connections with the people of Haiti. Then, in the May of 2009, we received an outreach team from YWAM Haiti St. Marc that stayed with us for a few weeks. They shared…Carnaval 2010!

Please keep us in your prayers as we prepare for the event.Mexico City Outreach
The outreach team in Mexico City has been busy reaching out to the masses in bold and relevant ways. They have seen God's hand at work through the joining of churches uniting together to reach out to the people of their city and they have had the chance to help the Haitian embassy in Mexico after the earthquake in Haiti. They have had opportunities to work in two different high schools where they have been able to go into the classrooms and share all about God and the importance of knowing Him.…© 2010 Created by Lisa Tymos Parrish.
