Update from Mexico City

Dear Praying Friends,

This last week was our fifth week in a row with a a great attendance with the seats packed. We are seeing about 80% in attendance. If we had 100% attendance, it would be hard to fit everyone. We are also seeing good Sunday evening and Thursday evening attendances. This past week, we had three baptisms: Lourdes, Gabriel's wife who was saved our anniversary Sunday and Daniela, the daughter of Gabriela. Gabriela was saved last May and has grown faster in the Lord than probably anyone else in our church. Carlos also was baptized. He is the one I mentioned who used to have shootouts with the Army and police on the border.

Raymundo and his wife Guadalupe finally became members this Sunday night as well as Lourdes, Gabriel's wife. I would say that our church is in the best shape since its beginning:;although it, of course, has so much more still to go. The offerings continue to be solid and we have more people tithing.

We now have the trim work done on the walls and have the wood floor put in. Today we put on the baseboards and the window frame that raps around the french doors that will make it look like one piece. We also got a sharp-looking sign for the church that we are going to put up tomorrow. We are putting in nice curtains for the church window this weekend as well. The place looks totally different than when we first moved in. As of now the landlord owes us money, so we won't be paying rent until April. More money in savings to go toward the new building. Please keep praying about the new property.

On our third week of knocking doors, we saw a lady named Angelica saved and I was able to sit down in the home of a man named Alejandro and give him the gospel. He said he wasn't prepared to make a decision yet, but we have a great open door there.
Please pray for his salvation and that Angelica would attend our church.

We sent a letter out saying where we planned to be this summer in the States and have only heard from a couple churches out East. If we do not hear from other churches, we may just come up for the trip to Israel and my family stay at Fairhaven those two weeks, then go out East for a couple weeks of meetings and back down to Mexico at the end of June. We would then come up in late August to put our kids in school.

Thank you for your prayers.

Sincerely,
Clint Rardin
