25 people~holding steady!

Hi everyone,

I love publishing a post on Monday nights! So far our Monday nights have been nothing but success! It is almost scarey to say it, but I really think we may have the start of a really awesome church here. Everyone is excited about coming. They are inviting others to come and they all participate in our conversations. We have even had 3 families bring the food the last 2 weeks. Jerod and Alex have been really great as they have taken on the role of children's ministry. They have been telling a small version of the story the adults hear and then they do a craft with the kids. I will add a picture later! So, we have been very blessed by the attendance and have had new people come every week. Please pray for a man named Icho. He is a great guy, new believer, but really shy. His wife and kids come every week but he just doesn't want to be around a lot of people. So, please pray for him that he could get over his fear of being with people and will join us soon!

I must tell you about Rosa's husband, Chavo. Rosa was one of the girls in the picture with me that accepted Christ last week. They both came over today for lunch and Chavo listened to Greg's testimony (his story of how he accepted Christ as his Savior) and then decided that he too wanted a relationship with Christ. He was very happy when he left and they both felt as if this was turning point in their marriage. They are only 20 years old and 18 years old, so this could really change the course of their lives for the better. We are praying that they will start coming on Mondays as well! Thanks so much for all of your prayers! You really are a part of this journey we are on, when you pray for us!

I will be answering the question: "What do we like about Mexico more than the United States?" tomorrow. I will also put up a new poll soon. What questions would you like to see on the poll? I may end up answering all of the questions eventually! We love you!
