Our
First Wedding.
David
had never attended a Christian church. The first time that he came
to our church was a Wednesday night in the beginning of 2003. That
night David trusted Christ as his personal Savior. Little by little
he matured and grew spiritually. Later on he began to date a young
lady in our church with my permission. Finally, the 26th of December
of 2003, David and Ariadna were married. It was our first wedding
in the church and God blessed greatly.
Our
Third Baby.
It
was a long nine months of waiting. After this long wait, God gave
us something wonderful – our third baby. Her name is Sarah Joy and
she was born January 26th at 12:30am of 2004. She weighed 7 pounds,
and measured 19.5 inches. We want to thank each one of you for your
valuable prayers. Thank you!
15
Souls Saved.
During
the month of February we celebrated “Friend Day”. We invited Brother
Rafael Fiesco to come preach for us. A lady named Christine from
the United States gave us 140 Bibles to give away and we were able
to distribute more than half of them that day. Many people visited
our church for the first time. The auditorium was full with 90 in
attendance and 15 precious souls were saved. One of them was a psychologist
that a man in our church had been witnessing to for more than 15
years. She came that day and God saved her soul.
Guillermo
and Claudia.
A
few weeks ago we had the opportunity to visit a family that came
from San Luis Potosi to the city of Puebla to do a bone marrow transplant
on their five year old daughter who has leukemia. The husband, Guillermo,
told us that he had never attended a Christian church before. His
wife Claudia asked what the difference was between the Catholic
and the Christian church. I explained to them that the Catholic
church teaches salvation by works and that the Bible teaches salvation
by faith. I spent some time explaining that Christ paid for everything
on the cross. A few minutes later, they were on their knees asking
Christ for salvation. Please pray for them so that they can join
a good church in San Luis Potosi.
The
Work of God.
The
beginning of this year has been a great blessing. Two families have
been added to our church. A group of ladies began to go soul-winning
and visiting every Tuesday and Thursday. We began to support our
first missionary for $50 per month. The church, all by itself, now
pays the rent of the church building. We also now don’t fit in the
place that we are renting. Please pray for us that this summer the
Lord can give us a bigger place to rent and also that God will provide
1,000 mt2 of land to build a church. Thank you.

His Grace,
