Dear Pastor and Praying Friends,
Greetings in the name of the Lord Jesus
Christ. We arrived back in the U.S. on January 20th for
furlough. We are scheduling meetings to fill our calendar and
have several dates still open. Please contact us if you would
like to have us update you on our ministry between now and mid-August,
when we are scheduled to return. We ask you to join
us in praying that the Lord will provide us with the necessary meetings
in
order to raise needed support so we can return to Spain.
We have had the wonderful opportunity to be in a few
new churches and also to give a hearty “thanks” to some of the churches
that have been supporting us already. It has been such a blessing
to tell these churches what the Lord has been doing through us with
what they have given to Him by faith. We were able to report
about the “fruit that may abound to your account” in Philippians
4:17. We know, beyond a shadow
of a doubt, that we could not have done these things without the
faithfulness of God’s children supporting God’s Work. 1
Corinthians 3:9 says, “For we are labourers together with God…”
Please continue to pray for the families in El
Puerto that we were having Bible Studies with. We are keeping
contact with them via e-mail and they desire that we return as soon as
possible. Souls are literally in the balance. We too want
to return quickly.
While we are in the states we will be sending
Spanish Bibles, Spanish John and Romans booklets and tracts to
Spain. We want to have enough Spanish material available when we
return to publish the Gospel in El Puerto de Santa Maria and
surrounding areas. Please ask the Lord to help us in obtaining
and shipping these items.
The Lord has given us another opportunity to witness
to our family members face to face. It appears that the Lord is
moving in many of their hearts and we believe the Lord will allow them
to see their need for Salvation. We ask that you continue to pray
especially for Patsy’s brother Jason and for my cousin Kristi.
We want to thank each and every one of you again for
your faithful prayers and support. We look forward to sending you
more
news of how the Lord is working through us for His honor and
glory.
God bless you all.
