Things are going well here. We signed a contract with the owner of the building were we have been renting. It is a three-month contract that allows us to do some remodeling to make it look better and the cost is discounted from the rent. We have turned in a copy of the contract and other paperwork to the government and we hope to get official recognition before Christmas, then we plan to do some major canvassing from January to May.
We had a great Sunday with a good attendance and some very good decisions to be "instruments in God's hands." Next week is our Christmas program to get the unsaved out and we had made some nice invitations for our people to take and give to others. There were none left on the table afterwards. Please pray that our people bring many unsaved visitors out and that these may be saved.
Our building has guards contracted by the owner. One of them, Alejandro, has asked to be guard every Sunday. The owner believes it is because he wants to hear the preaching. Please pray for his salvation as well as hers. The Sunday before, Martin, and man whose family started coming in September, passed me after the service and offered himself to be of service anytime I need him. This last Saturday he came to set up the church and pray. Gabriel, the soldier I have been writing about, is worth more than all the officers I had in our church in the beginning years. I believe God is answering the prayers of Sam and I for stable men.
Please pray for the building we are trying to purchase that God provides. We plan to take a year-long furlough next summer and would love to leave the church with a building they own as we did for the other church when we took our furlough in 2003. Sam Eastep will stay ministering to the church in our absence. The building has an apartment on the upper level and we would love to have his family to live in. As of now, he lives in the suburbs as the housing is less expensive; but, because of the traffic, it often takes him an hour or even more to get to the church.
We plan to be out east in the Pensylvannia-Maryland-Virginia area this summer as well as down South, and later out West reporting to churches. If you would like for us come to your church and report the work please contact us though our e-mail or call us at: 001 52 553 603 5081.
Our mailing address is:
A. P. 77-128 Mexico City, D.F. Mexico 11200
During next school year we plan to be at Fairhaven Baptist Church, Chesterton, Indiana. We will be available for churches in the Midwest that would like us to report to them at that time. The number of the church is 219 926 6636.
