Once again we made the long trip from Illinois to the south Texas border, arriving here on November 10, 2013. We've had several months to rest and regroup and now it's time to continue our work in Mexico.
Reports received from our church and mission established in Nuevo Progreso have been good since we left in June. Several events took place including a three day evangelistic campaign in the city plaza. That project involved our church and two others in Nuevo Progreso. We received reports of several healings in those meetings and other blessings.
From one year to the next we never know what to expect or what the Lord has planned for us to do. We've learned to remain flexible and try to go under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. We do know there will be visits from volunteer doctors to our mission and that we have been given the use of the city's free clinic for examinations and treatments. Classes in nutrition have been planned along with the doctor visits. We look forward to our annual children's Christmas party at the church and hope to have gifts for every child who attends. If you would like to help with any of these projects, there is information on this blog about how to contact us or where to send your help.
Lloyd and I appreciate your prayers for the mission in Nuevo Progreso, Mexico. There will be frequent reports and updates on this blog and without a doubt there will be challenges requiring much prayer. You are part of that great group of witnesses to this work!
Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith. Hebrews 12:1-2
