A HOME OF THIER OWN / BLESSINGS FOR MORE CHILDREN

Last March, some friends from Hancock Michigan were here and while building a house in the colonia, Geraldo and Maria Del Carmen helped every day paint and build with the team as they saw some friends recieve the blessing of a new house. We had built them a foundation by faith in Feb. and were waiting for God to provide the money. Well the team left a few hundred dollars toward thier house and Wed, Geraldo carried his wife across the threshold of thier new home after some donations specific for a house were sent. Carmelo and Beto helped build the house as usual and we were all blessed to be a part of another families answer to prayer. Thursday we hooked up the water well pump in the canal and pumped water for several families to wash thier clothes in. We built a fliter system out of sand and gravel, and the canal water comes out clean out of the spicket. We will continue to pump water for other families this week. A new ministry unfolds as the need presents itself. Saturday we took the rest of the backpacks we had left over to a colonia near Rio Bravo, Mx and blessed about 50 more kids with the great things donated. We also loaded up tons of clothes and the women enjoyed thier gifts as well. We had a bible lesson for the kids and some children accepted Christ as thier Savior. A stop at the grocery store to bless Carmelo and Ruth as well as Beto and Lucy. We told them to fill up carts with as much food as they wanted and then we stopped at the meat store for some steak and chicken. We love seeing God use these two families to reach the people in the colonia and pray Gods blessings on them and consider them co partners in ministry and part of the support money we recieve is used to provide for some of thier needs. Muchas Gracias to all for sharing in so many lives
