Awesome God in an awesome April

“But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” Matthew 6:33 Awesome April! What a busy and blessed month it has been. We thank God for all of your prayers and support. Olympicos: The kids are still faithful in coming on Saturday mornings to learn and grow in their faith. During the Easter vacation we had a 5 day activity for the kids. The theme was “Rescue”. The kids had fun learning about all the ways Jesus rescues us. Thank you to those who helped make this week possible. Kids’ day! To celebrate the kids we invited them over to our house for swimming, pizza, ice cream, a movie and games. We all had a fun day. Even Boaz got in on the pool fun. Happy Resurrection Sunday! He is risen! On Resurrection Sunday a missionary, Gerardo Coronado, with Life in Messiah and his family came to San Nicolas. Gerardo presented a typical Seder dinner, what the Last Supper with Jesus would have been like. He explained the meaning of everything and shared the Gospel. Many visitors were with us this day, everyone enjoyed the Seder and were encouraged by the message. Soap and grocery bags were the crafts at the two women’s meetings. In March Maribel, a church member, taught the ladies how to make soaps. In April they celebrated Mother’s day by painting cloth grocery bags. Salem, a Tequis church member, came and taught different techniques. It is so great to see the community forming between the ladies at these meetings. 40 years of God’s faithfulness; This was the theme at the Word of Life Mexico 40th Anniversary. We had a long full day at the Bible school where I studied 3 years, celebrating and hearing testimonies of God working these past 40 years in Mexico. Praise the Lord! Thank you for joining us in prayer the last year as we have asked God for my US Green card. This past month we were told that the first step paperwork has been accepted! What a huge answer to prayer. There are still many more steps to make but we are on the right track! This week we will talk to the lawyer and do more paperwork. Continue to join us in prayer for this process. Prayer Requests: Spiritual growth and number of people at church in San Nicolas Mexico Lindo, Mari and her family that we are visiting and we can be faithful in continuing this Bible study.
