November-December 2011
Dear Friends in Christ,
We Praise the Lord for His grace and mercy as the kidnapping of pastors and/or members of their families has calmed down. Things have been relatively peaceful as souls continue to be saved in the Mexican churches. Other kidnappings still occur, and the violence and murder has not subsided in Monterrey.
Mathew 11:28-30, “Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
This young mother has hope for a better life for her baby and family after trusting Christ! The churches report 28 adults and 39 children saved these two months!
The light of the Gospel brings hope and peace in a time of turmoil and unrest.
December 12, is Virgin of Guadelupe Day in Mexico. Millions will perform penance for sin and worship whom they believe is the Mother of God. She is considered Co-Redeemer with Christ. It is a false hope and peace that needs to be replaced with the light of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
We are so thankful for our dedicated students and staff of the Bible College who have won 77 souls! There will be a few less worshipping a false deity. Please continue to pray for the churches, Bible College, and the work in general. May the Lord bless you with hope and peace this Christmas season.
Thank you for your faithful prayers and support.
Yours in Christ,
Rick and Susie
