SOME PHOTOS TO SENSITIVE TO PUBLISH

We went to the colonia yesterday after a few days of rain without a real plan. We had bought Beto and Lucy a propane tank with heater attached on top and wanted to bring it to them. The days have been cold and damp this week and the nights are even colder. Our desire this month is that people would read this and send $100.00 to provide a family with heat this winter. Paula and some friends were sorting clothes and the boys were putting some finishing touches on a truck they had been working on. We spotted the Army and a bunch of Humveees coming thru the colonia, just spot checking and doing their job. When they came to us, we told them we were missionaries and asked if we could give the troops bibles if they wanted one, so before they left we handed out over twenty bibles and a bunch of candy to the men. It was pretty cool and they were very nice to us and I even got a photo of me on one of the humvees, but you'll have to come here to see it. Today we met another family that really- really needs a house. They have four kids, and as we shook their little hands, chills went up my spine, they were soooo cold. We talked a while about their relationship with Christ, and like so many, they don't go to church because they were wounded by someone. The inside of their house was one of the worst we have seen in while, so we prayed with them that God would provide the funds for their house and also give them a church home in the colonia. On the way out of the colonia, we dropped them off three blankets and a bunch of food. So I'm trusting God to help us build at least three houses in the next month.
