ITS ALWAYS SOMETHING GOING ON

  With our old house back in our possession and on the market, we're praying for a quick sale. 
  Ministry continues inspite of the horrific violence last week in Reynosa. Several people called to check on us, and we appreciate your prayer support ๐Ÿ™.  Yesterday we went to Melodys Orphanage to deliver a couch, some shoes, and a much needed air conditioner. I took Jaime to Sam's Club in Reynosa and met Andres and Goyita there. They filled up 6 carts with everything from diapers to hamburgers,  and everything else they needed at the orphanage. Over 100 bottles of oil, 130 kilos of sugar, flour, and jalapeรฑos for Saturdays food outreach. 
  Last week, I was called out of construction retirement to replace a Pastors roof about 30 miles north of Reynosa. Jaime and the kids from the orphanage went to do the work, I just supplied the money for the materials. A pop up rain storm halted the job and destroyed all the drywall in the house, and soaked thier belongings.  What a bummer ๐Ÿ˜•๐Ÿ˜ž.  I went over to help the next day and we got the roof done. ๐Ÿ™ƒ.  Power Ministry is sending the money for the materials. Gabriel is a graduate from Magdiel Bible Institute that Power supports.
  Several pallets of rice and some beans were given to us by Power Ministry a few weeks ago. A delivery of a new washing machine came that Jaime ordered online and we took the much needed machine to them. 
  Paula and I are heading to Arkansas tomorrow for a  memorial service for a life long friend Mark Luscombe. We go wayyy back to our childhood years, and then reconnected at a church years ago. His wife asked if I would do the eulogy so I couldn't refuse. Mark and I spent a lot of time together studying God's Word , working together in the roofing business and trucking over the road together. 
  It would have been nice to head to Chicago since we're half way there in Arkansas,  but we have commitments back home before we can head north to spend time with family and friends in August. 
   Thanks for the prayers and support that continues to bless us and those we serve. Even though we don't build houses for now, the support we receive is providing food, clothes, building materials,  and many other needs of orphanages and other ministries.
