Update - June 1

Greetings and Blessings to you!

Linda’s Titus 2 meeting on Friday was very good. I have a picture of the ladies to send.

We had 4 pray for salvation in the services last week. Praise God.

We have been busy all week answering 4 or 5 emails each day from

thegodrev.com website. So many people praying the prayer for salvation. And so many still needing to do so!

I’ve been reading Bro Andrew’s book, Light Force – a different perspective on the Palestinian situation. And have met some precious members of the Family in those pages.

Our youngest grandchild (Kimberley) graduated from High School yesterday!

We took Pastor Samuel Santos on a trip to Tepic, praying for the right man to help start the work there. I think he’s it. Pray the Lord’s direction concerning that, would you?

I had asked for prayer for Arturo Gomez. He still needs it – but the Lord has the doctors scratching their heads. They KNOW they saw cancer on those test results. They can’tfigure where it went.
But keep praying for Arturo, please – we want the WHOLE miracle!

I have to go to San Luis Potosi Monday thru Wednesday for a Mexican board meeting. Please pray for safe travel for all of us – and for Linda while I am gone.

Have a blessed day with your local Family tomorrow in one of Father’s houses! Its Bible, you know.

Thanks for your prayers!

In Him,Roger and Linda



Update - May 26

Greetings and Blessings.

Its Saturday evening late – I just came from the bi-monthly city-wide youth rally. Young people from our 8 Guadalajara centers come together to sing and praise and be challenged with the Word of God.

Its been a fast week– so busy, but so blessed as well. We get tired, but ain’t it fun serving Jesus and laboring in His vineyard?

Wehad a man come to the Lord in the mid-week service. That’s good. Most of our decisions come on Sundays and in the cell meetings.

Urgent prayer request: For Arturo Gomez. He’s 32 and has some intestinal problems. I think I mentioned him in a letter. One doctor was ready to do a colostomy on this strong, young truck driver! Good news – he doesn’t have cancer, but he does a need an operation to correct a serious problem. Please pray for him and his wife and little daughter.

Linda had another Titus 2 session coming up next Friday. We appreciate your prayers for that event, too.

Our quarterly regional pastors’ meeting is tomorrow. Pastors will be coming from 5 states. Please pray for the meeting and their safe travel to and from.

Your prayers mean so much to us – thank you for praying.

Have a wonderful day in the Lord’s House today. Hebrews 10.25. We all need it!

In Him,
Roger & Linda

Update - May 18

Greetings and blessings in Jesus.

Its been a busy and blessed week. Pastors' meetings, counseling sessions, planning for the new outreaches (missions) and so on. I had to get fresh radio programs out - still behind on regular mail correspondence, but working on that, too.

We are getting ready for the quarterly regional pastors' meeting next week. Saturday we have a youth "concentracion" meeting...a united meeting of the youth of all our Guadalajara area Centers of Faith.

We had 3 people pray for salvation in the service Sunday...others brought to the Lord outside the services. I got to the staff meeting Sunday and walked in on the end of a session 2 workers had with a young lady...she received the Lord.

In Him,
Roger & Linda

Update - May 11

Greetings and blessings in Jesus.

To all the mothers:

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope. Rom 15.13

From Jerry Ireland in Pensacola:
A teacher gave her class of second graders a lesson on the magnet and what it does. The next day in a written test, she included this question: 'My full name has six letters. The first one is M. I am strong and attractive. I pick up things. What am I?' When the test papers were turned in, the teacher was astonished to find that almost 50 percent of the students answered the question with the word 'Mother.'
Monday I walked into the church for our staff meeting, to find two staff members praying with a young lady for salvation. They were excited, she was thrilled and I was, too.

Last Sunday was Children’s Day in Mexico. Our kids had a special celebration.

Have a wonderful Lord’s Day.
Roger and Linda

Update May 4

Greetings and blessings in Jesus.

We got back from last month's missions conferences and MRC board meeting in time to do a young lady's 15th birthday celebration and preach Sunday. After Monday's staff meeting and our cell meetings we took 3 days to rest and catch up from the trip.

Of course there is always much to do even when we are "taking time to rest." More than anything else these past three days we have been distributing and answering emails of new converts from the website "enbuscadedios.com". Linda, I and the staff have done over 100 follow-up emails. Exciting!

I was counseling with one of my cell members. Alfredo was sharing how he had one a young man to the Lord a couple of weeks ago, and now the whole family has come to know the Lord!

We are going to rent a house this week for the beginning of the new church plant in Tepic, Nayarit. Please pray for that, would you?

God bless you - Have a great day in Father's House tomorrow.

In Him,
Roger & Linda
