Update November 23

Greetings and blessings in the Love of God!

Romans 8.35-39 Linda and I were in Queretaro last weekend for a Titus 2 graduation celebration. Really a blessed time. I'm including a photo of the "rondalla" (guitar-singers group) of the women that ministered in song at the graduation service.

In a little bit I leave for Salamanca (5 hours away) and then Sunday night we'll be at Irapuato for services. We appreciate your prayer cover for the trip. Linda won't go this time, but my cousin Steve Collins will ride shotgun for me!

We had 3 receive the Lord in Angulo (Guadalajara) Center last Sunday. 4 in the new Tepic mission. Praise God. He is bringing people from our radio program there each Sunday.

Please pray fro Sister Rosenda...one of the ladies in the Tepic mission. They discovered a cancerous nodule in one of her breasts.

Testimony - One of the ladies at Queretaro suffered extreme abuse from her unsaved husband. She was about to poison his coffee, when the Lord told her to "do him good and not evil all the days of his life." Titus 2 teachings helped her through her temptation and new outlook on her relationship to her husband.

Thanks again for your prayers and love.

Have a glorious Lord's Day in His House.

Roger & Linda

Update November 16

Greetings to you on this Friday evening.

Linda and I are getting ready to leave in the morning for the beautiful state capital city of Quertaro. We will be ministering at the Titus 2 graduation services in the church of Carlos Alvarez. We ask your prayer covering as we come and go.

Here last week we had one person pray for salvation. The Tonala FHL Center (Faith, Hope and Love) baptized 29 people, the new Tepic work had 5 decisions and 28 attendance, and the Tabachines FHL Center had 4 receive the Lord. PTL.

Your prayers are a vital part of every good thing the Lord accomplishes here. You are a wonderful partner with us in ministry here.

Thank you!

In His Grace,
Roger & Linda

Update November 9

Greetings and choice blessings in Jesus.

I preached on 2 Cor 13:14 last Sunday. What a wonderful brief text that is! And its my prayer for you today.

We had a good week. Busy, of course. Counseling, preaching, prayer meetings, and a brief time of fellowship with Carlos and Ursula Pedd. They are MRC missionaries and lead the Reto drug rehab ministry in Argentina.God is doing wonderful things in that ministry - and it has spread to Brazil and Paraguay, now.

We had three people pray for salvation last Sunday. Good meetings, too. And we are helping the pastor rent a house in Tepic - he'll be leaving our staff here to lead that work. Pray for Martin, Faustina and their five kids. And for the ministry in Tepic.

This next week we get ready for ministry in Queretaro - including a Titus 2 graduation celebration service there.

Once again we are so happy that the Lord has you praying for us and the ministry here in Mexico.

God bless you and have a wonderful day worshipping in His House tomorrow.

In Him,
Roger and Linda

Update - November 2

Greetings and Blessings in Jesus.

Well, we are putting the finishing touches on tomorrow's message - and sending out our weekly prayer report update. But our minds, hearts and prayers are REALLY more on this election than anything. It HAS to be the most critical presidential election ever! And we need a miracle!

Linda and I did the Los Fresnos group meeting last night. We filled in for Martin and Faustina who are moving to Tepic to lead the new work there. PLEASE PRAY - for Octavio and Rosalba who will take the Los Fresnos group now, and for the right house in Tepic. AND for the money needed for the rent. ($300 USD a month.)

We had 5 people pray for salvation last Sunday here in our Angulo Street church. Several others in the other local Centers as well as four in Tepic. Praise God.

We are facing some momentous decisions in the ministry here - please pray we follow the Lord's will and wisdom in them.

May the Lord pour out His Spirit on us all tomorrow...here and there with you. And may many lost souls come to know Him and His love and Life!

Thank you for praying. God bless you!

Roger & Linda
