Hello my name is Joe D'lopez and like the apostle Paul, do not come with elegant and persuasive words, but with simple and plain words from my heart, simple and easy as God has called me to do so. Continue reading “Keep Calm and Let God Be God! – By Joe D Lope”
Tomorrow, Thursday, January 8, a small team of us will travel to Nicaragua and be in Dario and Matagalpa for 8 days. We will be working with friends there, including Jairo Miranda and Earl Rutledge. We need and appreciate your prayer support.
The largest contingent of the team is from Living Hope International's Puebla, Mexico location, with others coming from Northern Mexico and a few of us from the US.
We will plan to post updates on the FXMissions Facebook Page while we are on the field, as time and opportunity permit. Thanks for joining with us in our efforts for the Nations!
If you are interested in being involved in a short term trip in Latin America or Africa, let us know!
Blessings and thanks again!

I recently had the pleasure of contributing an editorial piece about my experience in Nicaragua with their coffee culture to the online culinary magazine, Life & Thyme. They also published a number of my photographs documenting my experience.
I met so many wonderful people during my visit (like our friends Ixil and Adrian Borter, and the Torrez family, all of whom I write about in the story) and hope to continue going back and building those relationships over time. The whole experience in Nicaragua was amazing and there was so much more I wanted to share in this story but I hope that you enjoy the read and the photography.
Head over and take a gander: AdIx's Nicaraguan Coffee.

It was early 2005 and I was running like a live wire off the energy of a recent awareness of a call to missions. I was in one of the biggest cities in the world, the City of Mexico… helping to put on a conference in the north of the city. It was my first time in Mexico beyond the cities that skirt the Texas / Mexico border. I was an easy target for the Lord, tho at the time a clueless one.
Don’t get me wrong here, I want to let you inside the story. I hope I can, but it’s not just a story, if it were there would be no real casualties…. and yet, there are. Continue reading “Consequences”
