A Good Weekend!

Hi everyone! I know it has been a few days since I posted, sorry! This has been a really good weekend for us. On Friday, we had our normal group of about 16 people over to listen to a Bible story. Everything went well and Annie started to warm up to her Mexican friends again. We talked about changing our Friday night meeting to Monday nights when more people can come. We are praying that Monday will be a better night and our group will continue to grow. Please pray with us that this will be a good decision and soon we will have one big group instead of 3 small groups. This picture was taken while we were singing songs of praise and worship.

Saturday went well too. Greg and a group of 13 boys went to play American football and then they went hiking in the woods. They all had fun and came home FILTHY! Then we went over to a friends for lunch. I was a little worried when I found out what was on the menu. It was mole. That is the stuff that Annie fell into. I wasn't sure what she would say or do when she was offered this again. However, God is good and when she heard it was mole, she looked at us and calmly said, " Hey, that is what I fell into." That was it. She ate it like it was her favorite food. I was thankful because that was one more thing behind us!

We are meeting with Virginia and her family tonight. ( friend with cancer) Just to reply to the past few comments, like they said, I KNOW God is not a God of percentages! He is continually reminding me of that! Through so many prayers that He has answered. Remember, first we were told around 40% was burnt, then 32%, then 22%. He can change things in a matter of seconds if He wants! I know God will either heal our friend or He won't. That is the only thing they worry about here in the village. They aren't told what chance they have of survival. They are content with not knowing. I think that is a good thing. I will be praying for anyone mentioned in the comments! Praying for complete healing! Anyway,we are going to share some stories from the Bible with this family tonight, and hopefully we can encourage them through this tough time in their lives. Please pray God will be with us and they will hear these stories and understand these are God's words and not Greg's words.

We are off on another trip tomorrow. We will be heading to the Mexican National Baptist Convention. We will be visiting with many Mexican Baptists and encouraging them in the work they are doing. We will be there until Friday. Please pray for safe travels, as it is about a 9 hour drive. Thank you for your continued support to us. Thank you for taking time out of your busy day to read our news!
