Last Saturday we held our monthly food outreach and I was able to thank everyone for their prayers. My cardiologist told me that my heart attack was attributed to diabetes. I have not addressed that fact to the extent I needed to. So I asked everyone at the outreach " who is neglecting health issues because if money"? Several people raised their hand and told me the medicine they needed but couldn't afford. We took their name, phone number and the meds they needed, and went to the pharmacy and bought everyone the meds they needed. Expensive but worth every penny. One sixteen year old girl, Sonia came up to us after the despensa and expressed her desire to know Christ. What a joy to pray with her. We built her family a house 3 or for years ago.
We spent the night at Melodys Orphanage in Reynosa the other night. We met another couple there that brought pizza and gifts to the kids. We brought them a big box of Legos. They enjoyed the pizza and gifts and made some cool stuff.
We enjoyed breakfast with Jaime, Rosalba and Macedonio before heading to the colonia for Paula's sewing class. We arrived to a colonia with no electricity. Several hours later it came back on. Andres is almost done with the tile in the house next door.
Pastor Felipe came and loaded up his van with beans rice and bibles going to Chiapas this week. He makes the trip every month to bless the poor people in the mountains and we give him all we can each month, including money for gas and repairs to His van.
Thanks for the continued prayers and support that allow us the privilege of serving those in need.
