YG has been invited by General Conference Youth Ministries to lead worship for Impact St. Louis, a young adult community service initiative that parallels the GC Session.

INSPIRE HOPE // SHARE GRACE

**ZUZU’S FINAL MISSION NEWSLETTER**
When I said “yes” to coming to Mexico, I never could’ve imagined all the incredible things God would do! Over the past few months, I’ve witnessed His hand in powerful ways, and I’m overwhelmed with gratitude. It’s bittersweet to share that my time in Mexico has officially come to an end—but what a journey it’s been! During our final month of outreach, we spent time in two regions in southern Mexico: Huatulco and Merida, along with their surrounding indigenous communities. Keep reading to hear about what God did in these places!
