Update, September 16

Greetings and Blessings in Jesus, Our Great Deliverer!

INDEPENDENCE DAY IN MEXICO
Today is 16 September…Mexico’s Independence Day. In the Mexico as in the USA – we have the joy of many liberties and national independence. Looking at other parts of the world, we can easily recognize how blessed we are! In studying for today’s message I discovered there are at least 27 million slaves in the world today! We are so blessed! Living a country where there is freedom and knowing Jesus and the spiritual and moral freedom we have in Him!

LINDA’S SURGERY
Thank you for praying for us – for Linda – and her surgery. She came through with flying colors. A little discomfort today – but everything was benign. Praise God. Our daughter-in-law, Paty West is here from Dallas to help care for Linda. She’s a blessing!

LAST SUNDAY’S REPORT
5 people prayed for salvation. Very good meetings. Praise the Lord. We are expecting great things today as we celebrate our Independence Day Sunday.

PRAYER REQUESTS
Please pray for Linda's full recovery from the surgery. Please pray for Pastor Juan Acosta and me as we travel to Monterrey for Directors’ meeting for the Center of Faith, Hope and Love in Mexico Monday.

We return Wednesday evening to Guadalajara. Please pray for the Re- Encounter Retreat we will be celebrating September 21-23 for the young people of our congregation. Then on the 24th we have our quarterly regional pastors’ meeting here in Guadalajara.

THANK YOU
Your prayers are so important – and make much more difference than you really know. We appreciate them so very much.

Have a glorious day in Father’s House today.
Roger and Linda
GOD IS ABLE
