When the group packed up and left last week, we thought there would be a little rest before the next team arrives on the 22nd. But God always has something else to do. Hector from Sende Vida Ministry called me and told me about 6 families that lost thiers homessage in a fire. On our way Monday to check out the situation and see if we could help, we ran across the Power Ministry prep team working in the same colonia. We stopped and greeted the guys and took a few photos.
We continued to the street where the houses burned down and met the one family. Being as busy as we are, I couldn't guarantee any help, but knew we had to do something. Jose said he knew how to build concrete block walls, so I bought all the materials and Hector brought 18 guys the next day to help build it. GOD ALWAYS PROVIDES!!! I'll take the wood over Monday to start on the roof trusses, and we should be done by Thursday.
Johnny, Andreas and Eleazar are building a house in Flora De Mayo all by themselves this week as well. They should be done by Tuesday., and can help me on the other house.
Paula had several ladies from the US join her sewing class Thursday and brought gift bags for all the ladies in Paula's sewing class, and some great food for lunch.
Sergio and I went to Sams Club in Mexico and bought lots of food for our next outreach and called Gator and Jaime to come and get food for thier orphanages.
Today I played golf with four other missionaries that serve in Mexico. We then attended Neal Dorschs 91st birthday party. Neal and his late wife have been serving the Lord for decades, supporting missions with all they have.
Year end giving statements will be going out soon and we are so
grateful for all the prayers and support we receive from you. We're trusting God to do even more this year.
