Mission Mazahua is located in a beautiful
valley approximately sixty miles
northwest of Mexico City. The
Hacienda of Tepetitlan is the home of
Mission Mazahua. |
|
|
|
|
 |
The Hacienda's bell tower is a
distinguishing mark of Mission Mazahua. |
|
|
|
|
 |
The Hacienda's interior has received a
great deal of attention as it is in the
process of renovation... |
|
|
|
|
 |
for Christian groups to hold meetings... |
|
|
|
|
 |
retreats, and church events which may
last a day or a week... |
|
|
|
|
 |
as the facilities can house more than two
hundred people. |
|
|
|
|
 |
There are recreational areas... |
|
|
|
|
 |
and Las Rosas, a separate facility which
is also under renovation for use.... |
|
|
|
|
 |
as classrooms and vocational training in
pottery, stained glass and carpet
sculpting. |
|
|
|
|
 |
Missionary Assistance Corp (MAC) groups
travel to Mission Mazahua to assist in
the renovation of the Hacienda and Las
Rosas and to work hand in hand with the
Mazahua people. |
|
|
|
|
 |
The woodworking shop is fitted with
second-hand tools to assist with various
volunteer projects. |
|
|
|
|
 |
One team helped build movable/storable
bunk-beds for use with larger groups. |
|
|
|
|
 |
The Hacienda has been made as accessible
as possible so each year a group of
wheelchair bound men and women come for a
spiritual retreat and recreation. |
|
|
|
|
 |
The Hacienda also has a corn mill so
farmers in the area can grind their corn. |
|
|
|
|
 |
Worship is always a highlight of a the
Mazahua experience.... |
|
|
|
|
 |
it'll bring a smile to your face. |
|
|
|
|
I
want to make a contribution to the work of this mission! |
