PRAISE HIM FROM WHOM ALL BLESSINGS FLOW

Paula taught 6 of the 10, but by now possibly 11, Lara kids how to make little yarn crosses to hang on doors or trees or wherever the people in Mexico want to hang them. They bought 1000 Popsicle sticks to make 500 ornaments by Christmas. Good luck with that! Last week was just an explosion of Gods Goodness to the people in Mx. A load of medical supplies from Illinois delivered by Charlie and Rick for the Methodist Missions work in Mexico and soon after the delivery, Pastor Jose from Reynosa came and loaded up Hospital Beds and Wheel chairs for His ministry helping senior citizens with hospice care. He was truly blessed by all the chairs and beds. Willie is the director for the Methodist Church in Rio Bravo and He brought three vans over on Saturday and loaded up all but a few skids of the supplies and made use of a permit to take it to Mexico. Those vans were packed to the max. He promised to have it all out of our warehouse by Saturday, but I've gotta give them some grace because they did make a valiant effort and they should move it out by Tuesday. We continue exhausting the generous gift to buy beds for families in the colonia and the order for 10 beds last Thursday came stacked on one little truck put together like a puzzle. I had the company deliver a few of them for me down the road from our place because I don't have room for that many at one time in the warehouse in Mexico. Dan Block, a friend from church and I drove to Harlingen and brought The Way of The Cross Ministry some corn and they gave us boxes of foam plates. What a great ministry they have and after sharing about it with another fiend, he drove there just to see it and meet the director. Leticia had her baby last week at the same time her husband Jose returned from the U.S. after being deported. If he gets caught in the U.S. again He'll be facing some serious jail time. Most of you that read our blog know Raul, please pray for him as the blockage in his arteries has caused some dizziness and they can't operate or install stints. He spent the last few days in the hospital and will probably move up to Dallas and live with His sisters there for a while and get chelation treatments to reduce the blockage naturally. So we have to give God the Praise for the good and the not so good. In all circumstances give thanks. And we are truly Thankful for all of our partners in this wild adventure we call our life.
