Almost exactly two years ago, we started dreaming of the churches of Boulder uniting to make a difference in the world.  Tonight I sat in a hotel room in Mexico City with 6 others.  All seven of us attend different churches.  Represented are the first 4 churches that decided to partner together – Cool River (Emmy), Flatirons (Mark), Emmaus Road (Mary) and Cornerstone (myself).  Also two churches that later joined us – Origins Community (Brad) and High Way Community (Rachel) and Bryan who came out of Flatirons and is launching a new church in Denver called Inception.

Its beyond cool that we are partnering we people here in Mexico who give their lives to rescuing children and helping make things that are wrong be right.  But it also cool that God is using ‘the Church’ – not just one church – to come together to be a part of this.  As we prayed together – for our week, for those caught in slavery, for those doing the rescuing and for those being rescued – I was moved by how the Lord has united us for this purpose.  And because both unity and setting captives free is at His heart, we can know we in His will.
