Greetings once again from hot and steamy Mexico!
This summer seems to be rushing by at the speed of light for us. There are so many things going on and lots of exciting stuff happening. We’ll try to highlight a few:
In our previous update, we mentioned “J” and “G” who have attended our cell group. Thank you for your prayers for them. They both returned the following week and once again, it was very apparent that they had been drinking. At the end “G”, in tears, asked what he could do because the alcohol was destroying him, hurting his family, etc. It is very hard when he receives such mixed messages from “J” who professes to follow Christ but sees nothing wrong with his drinking which is a very obvious stumbling block to his friend. Please pray for wisdom in how best to minister to them both. Please pray that they continue to reach out and in spite of the effects of the alcohol that God’s truth would penetrate to the very core of their beings. Pray that “G” will continue to want more and search for the truth and victory over his addiction in Christ. Please pray that “J” will acknowledge his problem with alcohol and how it is hurting his friend and that he will repent.
This evening, we will be showing the movie Fireproof at our cell group. We were able to stop by our landlords this week and talk with them for a while and invite them. There seems to be a continued interest in spiritual things. Please pray that this will be one more stepping stone to their faith in Christ. We would appreciate your prayers as well for all the people our group has invited to come and that seeds would be planted in many people’s hearts.
Several of our youth are struggling spiritually or going through some difficult times in their family or their family is struggling because of the economic crisis. Please, pray with us for them, that they would turn to the only place that offers true peace, comfort and direction.
Thank you so much for your partnership with us in spreading His good news!
