What would it be like if your job took you away from your family for a week and when you returned, everything had changed? For Roman, this is exactly what will happen when he returns from working out of town while his old shack that he had called "home" was gone and a brand new home stands in its place. Not only did he have a new home, but his entire family was new as well! Yesterday as the Carpenters Crew finished up building their new home, the Holy Spirit was putting the finishing touches on the hearts of Guadelupe, Louis, Samuel, Perla, and Little Jose. They had all experienced the love that flowed from the hearts of those building the house and saw Jesus working through them. At dedication time yesterday they all prayed to receive Jesus as their Savior and all things became new for them. Little Perla and Louis were overcome with emotion and they knew something special had just taken place. I want to be there when Roman comes home, but that probably won't happen and I can't wait to talk to him about Jesus and the miracle that had taken place while he was gone.
So after a week in Chicago with family and friends burying my brother Bill, our work in Mexico continues to bring forth fruit that leads to the salvation of souls. A very busy week culminated yesterday with a great celebration as many lives were changed. We had a feast of chicken after the dedication as the Crew fed everyone that came to the Community Center to see the nurses putting on a clinic, and to enjoy a hot meal and there were plenty of gifts for the kids that came as well.
A VERY HEART FELT THANK YOU TO EVERYONE THAT PRAYED FOR US AND CAME TO PAY THEIR RESPECTS TO MY FAMILY AFTER MY BROTHERS SUDDEN PASSING. MY FAMILY WAS AMAZED AT THE OUTPOURING OF LOVE YOU EXPRESSED.
