Dear
Prayer Partners,
Greetings
in Jesus' precious name.
First, we
want to thank all of those who helped with Christmas this year. It
always takes a great
effort,
and a lot of hard work, Thanks !!! This year, we had problems
getting the toys into Mexico.
The
officials wouldn't give us permits and wouldn't let us cross with
toys, but we finally got them
across.
Our Mexican workers are very flexible and everything worked out
well. By next month, we
should
have all of the reports and give more details.
Kevin
brought toys to Texas. Hilda and I picked those up in
LA and TX. This gave us time
to
help move
Hilda's family to Clint, Texas. Clint is just east of El Paso and we
are building a mission
there.
Her family will be helping us with this new work. In the future, we
will be storing every thing for Mexico in Clint, Please pray for
this.
Last
Monday, we met with all of the workers who do the ministries in
Coahuila, Zacatecas, and
Vera Cruz
states in Piedras Negras. It was a great time of fellowship and
encouragement. We went
over
in three vehicles, a van and a suburban that were donated to Mario
and Miguel and our van.
An three
vehicles were loaded with supplies and we went over without any
problems, A lot of you
were
praying for this .•..thanks!!!
Bro. Chuy
called the other day and said that one of tbe missions in southern Coahuila
state that was
started
a few years ago is no longer
a mission, but is now a church. They ordained the pastor and
the church
is now self-supporting, self propagating and self-governing. Praise
the Lord! This is
the
goal for all of the ministries. Chuy said
now that this church no longer needs our help, he is
going to
start a new mission somewhere else (he only has 5 other missions in
3 states). Pray that
God leads
him to the right place for the new ministry.
Bro.
Chuy needs your prayers for his health. The doctors are supposed to
operate on him for
prostrate
problems. He doesn't know all of the details, but looked pretty bad
when we saw him last
week. The
doctors keep giving him different pills to take hoping to avoid
surgery. Please pray for
him!!!
I have a
special prayer request this mouth. Bro. Tom Sloan is a missionary
working in southern
Mexico.
Tom grew up in Mexico where his father was a doctor and missionary. Tom
and his
brother,
Philip are carrying on tile ministry in Chiapas state started by
his father. Tom is a friend
of mine.
He called me a couple of weeks ago and asked for help. He and Phillip
have secured
permission
to install a Christian radio station in southern Mexico. They have
been able to get all of
the
equipment for the station, but need to buy some property. This will
cost $80,000.They need to
put down
$27,000 and already have half of this. Please pray for this project.
If you would like to
help with
this project, you can call Tom at 512-626-9960 or send a check to
Radio Land Fund 6203
Homestead
Trail, Austin, TX 78735. Please pray, this is a great opportunity to
send the gospel to
a lot of
remote people.
Because
of
Calvary,
Gal. 6:9
