Update July 13

Greetings and rich blessings today in the Name of our Lord Jesus!

NEXT WEEK
Our short – term missionaries to Chiapas en Southern Mexico return Monday. They have had some life-changing experiences during their time down there. We’re looking forward to their reports.

And a group of us leave Monday night for our annual pastors’ convention in central Mexico. Please pray for me, as I will be bringing the first message of the convention on Tuesday night. And pray for safe travel for all the people going to the convention.

LAST WEEK
We had a glorious day celebrating the church’s34th anniversary last Sunday. I have 2 or 3 photos attached. Ten people came to the altars to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior.

NEW OUTREACHES
We are to take possession of the house where we will begin services in Tepic next week. And we have a place loaned to us for the next congregation in the south part of Guadalajara.Things are moving! Praise God.

Arturo is scheduled for surgery this next week – so please be remembering him and his family in your prayers.

THANK YOU FOR PRAYING!

Your prayers are SO important to us and the ministry here. Thank you very much for praying for us.

In Him,

Roger & Linda

Update - July 6

Greetings and blessings on this wet, wet Sunday morning!I am doing this early today - was halted last night by an electrical storm; then it rained hard all night. But the day will be nice and cool here!

ANNIVERSARY
Today the downtown Angulo Street church celebrates its 34th anniversary! We are expecting a 'miracle catch' today, as our people bring lost friends to the celebration.

MISSIONS
Tomorrow10 of our young people leave for the state of Chiapas for a missions trip. It is a rather risky area - please pray for safe travels and protection there as they minister.

HOMEGOING
Mildred McMath, a dear friend and a missionary with Missionary Revival Crusade went HOME this past week. Our prayers are with her family. She and her husband, J.B.(in Heaven, too) were effective and fruitful missionaries in Guadalajara for almost 20 years before leaving the field here.

Former MRC Board member Don Loose recently lost his wife to Heaven's glory, as well. Our prayers are with Don, too.

TITUS 2
Linda's team had another good Titus 2 meeting with the present group of 70 women. They have three more meetings to go...July, August and September.

We had 5 people come to the altars for salvation Sunday. As I said above -we are expecting for more today - thanks for praying with us for that.

Have a glorious Lord's Day.

We do appreciate your prayers for us.

P.S. I will have word on Arturo Gomez sometime this week.

Please keep praying.

In Him,
Roger & Linda
