Thanks for all your faithful support in keeping my little ministry going this year. It's been an adventure for sure and God is working often in places I least expected. For example, on the mornings when I have the strength, I've been going out front and working in the garden. People pass by and I have been able to get to know just about all the neighbors. I've had a chance to share the love of Jesus with most of them and tonight a few will come over for a bible study in my home. Some of these folks are indigenous people from the south, others are just regular city folk who need to find out who Jesus really is. Would you stand with me in prayer for this little group that everyone would make it tonight, and that if they're not saved yet, that they would come to know Jesus soon? If things go well, I'll hand this new small group over to one of the leaders of my church to continue their discipleship after I'm gone.
Speaking of which, I'll be leaving mexico in just 2 weeks! I'll travel north for three days to reach Utah in time for a big fat family reunion. When that's done Dory and I will drive west and hopefully arrive in SLO around the 22 of May. It's always such a conflict to leave. I've made some really nice friends here, and planted a huge garden by now that's it will be a painful separation to be extracted from Mexico for the summer. At the same time, I can feel that my body needs a break. As the weather warms, I find I'm more and more tired in the afternoons and getting up to the land of free air conditioning would be a great relief. I miss you guys too, family and friends who pray for me so faithfully, worry a bit too I'm sure, and make me feel so loved and cared for when i finally roll in sunburt and broke every spring.
So, here are some prayer requests in brief to finish off this years ministry season
Pray those who got a bible will read it, and walk with God
Pray those I discipled will continue faithfully in their relationship with God.
Pray for a successful small group in my house.
Pray a faithful brother can take over the group when I leave.
Pray that house, garden, and cat will be well cared for while I'm away.
Pray God raises up the funds to get me home debt free.
Thanks so much saints ! you all are such a blessing to me!
see you soon
love,
