On Sat. 6/28 Paula and I went over to the colonia to see how Iliel was doing. He had the biopsy done and was pretty uncomfortable.His face is so swollen. We will continue to pray for God to touch him. We also took 100lbs of beans and handed them out as we drove thru the colonia. Our friend Carmello had about 50 pairs of shoes that we gave out also.We visited some friends in Flora De Mayo and gave out the rest of the beans and shoes. It was 9 pm by the time we left mx. On Sunday Paula and I took 100 hot dogs and a bunch of hamburgers over to the colonia. We met Lisa and the kids there and grilled up some meat. Beto and Lucy brought chicken and mole' and some rice, we invited everyone we saw to come and eat with us. We ate our fill and then went to church at Aqua Viva, Pastor Victors church. The service started at 6pm and ended at 9 some three hours later. We sang and Victors brother Nahum gave the message and then we prayed for Victor, and his family. It seems they are under physical attack, how great is our God to give them the realization that as we do what God wants us to do, we will have tribulation. So they give thanks and rejoice. Monday took us to the Childrens Haven Orphanage in Reynosa. Scott and Lisa have 23 people from Mn. there to do work projects from Sons of Salvation and stay in the orphanage. They have many projects to work on so the team will be busy. Paula and I were there about 5 hours and then went to the colonia to see how Iliel was doing. Victor had just returned with hundreds and hundreds of pastries and cakes and sweetbread donated to them by Casi Mami orphanage. Sure the food is a few days old but these people would never splurge on a cake as part of thier food budget. Within a few hours the word had spred and all the food was gone. When these people pray for thier daily bread, they mean it!!!!And God provides. Adios amigos.
