P--EEEWS

It stinks when you go to church and there is no where to sit. Well that won't be a problem any more for Pastor Elonzos church. They suffered a fire in thier church and all the pews were burned up. Pastor Victor asked if we could bless them with a few pews, so we built him 5 eight foot pews and he came and got them the other day and was very grateful. We also built 4 four footers for Pastor Procono down the road from us. We built him 5 eight foot pews last month and the church isn't wide enough for two 8 footers side by side so we built the economy model. Water is getting very scarce and people have to resort to doing laundry in the canal. We are all set to bless the people with food again tommorrow and will spend today preparing the food for distribution. We bought juice boxes and suckers for the kids and we are so gratefull to all those who support us to make these outreaches possible. Yesterday Frank and Pastor Bret came from San Antonio to visit the colonia and some of the needs there and will be partnering with some missionary friends from from San Antonio and Alabama. Late yesterday afternoon the search and rescue squad from Reynosa came to the colonia because someone found two backpacks and two pairs of shoes on the bank and no signs of the two kids. They feared they had drowned so they began to search for them. We pray that a miracle would take place and they will be found alive and well. We are heading over there now. ADIOS
