THE MINISTRY CONTINUES

  Sometimes we think of scaling back, slowing down, and doing something different.  But God doesn't seem to show us what that would look like. Even though we aren't building houses, we would like to think that we are still building the Kingdom through our lives. Distribution of food, bibles and other important products to people in need in Reynosa, the Texas border and throughout 🇲🇽. I guess that's what God has for us in this new season. 

   Our beans arrived from South Dakota last week and we've already distributed almost half of them. The cost of transportation was $3700.00 for a half of a load. Another ministry needed to transport 13 pallets of Christian Literature to the border from Minnesota and we let them fill out the truck and it was delivered to Laredo TX.

   Paula had a garage sale to raise money for Melodys Orphanage. Carol, Herb and China joined the effort and it was a lot of work getting things together and placed in our carport, and driveway. We raised $1000.00 and gave it to the Orphanage the other day. Lots of stuff was sold, and I cleared out old golf clubs,  generators. Some tools and lots of household items are gone. 

   Phil and Marianne Chain came last week and spent a few days here. We headed to Melodys Orphanage to take the van seats that Phil brought from Oklahoma and the garage sale $. While there, after lunch, a fire started in the field behind the orphanage.  High winds spread it through the tall grass. Jaime and all the older kids started a bucket brigade and much to my surprise they extinguished the 🔥  thru a lot of hard work.

    A search for a permanent solution for the orphanage is moving forward. A new connection that Jaime made, may be the solution but the facility will need some work, but it is huge. Please keep praying for the future of the orphanage. 

   ONLY ONE LIFE, WILL SOON BE PASSED, ONLY WHAT'S DONE FOR CHRIST WILL LAST.!!!!!
