SCHOOL!!!!! WHAT???

Today Maicah was not able to start school because he is sick. He has been having stomach problems for a week now. We took him to the doctor three time and he is getting better. Please pray for him. He was sad becuase Emma went to school and he did not.

Emma loves school, she was ready to go at 3:30 a.m. She came to the bed, and asked if it was time to go. We are truly blessed to see our kids be healthy. YOU are the people who make it possibe for us to pay for all the expenses.

THANK YOU.



We look foward to this new school year, and we ask that you would pray for their safety, and we could use it as an evangelistic tool.

Let the BLIND SEE!!!!


Last summer one of the groups in Hotel Rex stayed and gave a NEW TESTAMENT to a man who now is our brother in Christ. His name is Jose and in the last months has lost his vision. But we praise God for his desire to see the real light.

Arturo and Marta met them in the hotel and started studying with Jose and his wife Maria. We pray that in the future his family will come to Christ too.
We are thankful for what he privides for us....

SPECIAL PRAYER REQUEST



Please pray for the Henderson Family in D.F. This is Adah and Noah Henderson, the children of Jacob and Amanda Henderson. Noah has Tay-Sachs illness. We love having workers like them in Mexico, but we know how important family is. And we love them.
Please pray for God's love.

GOOD FRIENDS


In the last days we were blessed to have received The Molinas from Tlalpan. It is a blessing to see what God is doing in Mexico, and we thank him for it. Our kids had fun with Julian and Gael.
They came in a rushed trip but we had fun with them.

New Sister, New Baby, and New Visit


Today after our service in Leon we finally went to GTO to meet the new baby. Raciel and Ilse were blessed this last week with their new born baby: Samuel Isaac. He is so cute and we are glad to have seen him be added to their family.


Also, we took advantage of being there to see the church and eat in their potluck. And met our new sister who was baptised.


MEET JOSEFINA with RACIEL


The Rubio family and us went together along with Bill and Annie. It was a good "carne asada" and all. We praise God for what he is doing with his church in Guanajauto and the work Raciel and Ilse are doing. Keep the city adn state in your prayers.


We would like to thank Jenny for visiting us. Emma loves having her in the bedroom to play. Jenny has done great being in Leon. Thanks J'lae too.
