To Lift to the Father

Thank you for praying!

More individuals and/or couples to work alongside the Mexican nationals in order to expand the Kingdom.

For my Mexican residency papers that have been delayed. I'm anxious to have them in hand.

For the new ministries awaiting me in my new home town of Villa Hidalgo, Jalisco.

Mexican friends, Juan and Choy Sanabria, as they minister as foster parents. They are taking care of nine children at the moment. Pray for their financial needs, please.

A Long Drive with a Quick Visit

I left McAllen, Texas, on July 8th and was only a little behind schedule. (I left at 6 instead of 4am.) I was surprised at how well I felt driving after so much travel! After about 12 hours of driving I stopped for the night in Muskogee, OK. It was nice to be able to rest and not be in a rush nor responsible for anyone else. Okay, maybe it was a selfish moment, but it was fun!
Wednesday I headed for Jefferson City, Missiouri, to see a friend from Asbury College. Natasha and her family had just moved about two weeks before and were still getting settled into their new home. I don't know how it happened, but I didn't get a picture of the whole family (sorry Natasha and Justin!). I did get a pic of the youngest, Paul.
I then headed on to Marion, Indiana, on Thursday in order to begin a series of meetings at World Gospel Mission headquarters. It was good to be there and catch up with several mission friends. I only see them about once every four years and they do so much for me while I'm on the field. Thanks guys! You are very valuable ministry partners. I'm sorry I don't say it often enough!! Life in Marion will have to wait for another time. My long trip had several quick visits, and each visit was a huge blessing. Thanks for the hospitality!!!
