Manny Alvarez hasn't added a story.
Hello future supporter,
My name is Manny Alvarez, 20 years old, and I'm a student at Azusa Pacific University. Currently I am a standing junior pursuing a Marketing degree. I was born and raised for the earlier half of my life in Boyle Heights (East LA), California and later lived in Denver, Colorado. Now I reside in Bellflower, CA and just like many of us my life has never been easy. It has been a challenging ride but it is the little things that make my life so special and worth living. From the people I meet, to the experiences I live, to the blessing God gives me, all of it makes my life meaningful. I have always worked for what I have, so asking for funds is tough for me, but I need your help.
The ministry you will be helping is the Mexico Outreach Men's Prison Team. Through the help of my school I have been going to Mexicali, Mexico for two years now to visit the prisoners at the federal prison there. My last two visits have been amazing and I would like to go back for this coming Spring Break. Many college students go to Mexico during spring break for the wild life but I go to visit my friends at the prison. I spend my whole spring break with my team, hanging out with the prisoners there. We talk, play soccer, play basketball, have a bible study, feed them, and share each others lives with one another. It has been a life changing experience for me and I have made long-lasting friendships.
To give you an idea, previous years we have washed the prisoners feet, seven men have been baptized, a 73 year old man got saved, we played soccer with a local gang, and a satanic church has been prayed over, God has done much more than what we were we called there to do.
I need $700 dollars to do it all over again. This money will go towards paying for my trip and towards buying shoes and soccer balls to take to Mexico.
I am asking for your support not only in money but in prayer as well. I'm a believer that the little things matter the most, so anything you can give helps.
You can visit my blog at www.mannyalvarez.org to keep up with the work God is doing or like my FB page MAAN (Ministry Among A Need).
Thank you for your support!
MANNY
