Hurricane Jimena and its Effects


Many of you have been asking me about the hurricane that recently passed through Baja California, Mexico. Thankfully, none of us here in Tijuana were affected by the storm.

However, the southern part of the Baja Peninsula was hit very hard, some people losing there homes and all of their belongings from the storm and flooding that followed. Many schools and businesses have been closed and the government has declared the state of Baja California Sur in a state of emergency.

Some of our YWAM staff at our base in Tijuana and the base in Ensenada have their hometowns in the area affected by the hurricane. We are organizing a trip and sending some of our staff to help with the Hurricane relief effort.

If you would like to donate funds, canned food, clothes, or other supplies, please send any donations ASAP to:

YWAM San Diego/Baja
Hurricane Jimena Relief
100 W. 35th St. Suite C
National City, CA 91950

While I will not be personally traveling to Baja CA Sur to help with the relief effort, but as a part of the YWAM San Diego/Baja community and resident of Mexico, I am asking for your prayers, support and donations to help those affected by Hurricane Jimena. Thank you!!!
