WHEN DEATH BRINGS FORTH LIFE

Just as when Jesus died, the life of the Christian Church was born, it seems also that because of the death of Eliel last month, the life of Victor and Erica's family has taken on new life. The rest of the family from Vera Cruz, or most of it has now come to be with the family here in Reynosa. Their son Naftalee, his wife Elizabeth and their baby Taleta along with Elizabeth's sister, brother in law and mother have all come here to live. Victors mom and dad have been here for the last few months and stay at his brother Nahum's. We have spent the last few days building an addition on Victors house to try to make room for everyone. Ten people in one house now Twelve feet wide and thirty feet long. Three hundred and sixty square feet!! Wow I feel just a little guilty with Paula and me in a 2ooo square foot house. We always think we need more room to put our stuff, they just want to be together as a family and do life as best they can with the resources God gives them. Paula and I were blessed with a $500.00 gift last month to go towards a needy family and this addition costs just a little more than that so it really helped meet a families need. They have been feeding us quite well as we build and it's always hard to go back to work after lunch. We are hoping that this Christmas season will stir peoples hearts to give what they would normally spend on stuff they really don't need and experience the joy and grace of giving to meet the needs of others somewhere in the world. It really does change lives when people are on the receiving end of grace giving. We are so blessed to be the ones to see first hand the joy on the faces of the people here experience the grace God gives our supporters to give to our ministry here to help our brothers and sisters in Christ. God Bless You, Adios
