Dear Friends in Christ, May / June 2018
Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We thank the Lord for you and deeply appreciate your faithful prayers and financial support for the work in Mexico.
Susie and I are doing well and are enjoying many blessings from the Lord. Susie has suffered more pain than usual in her knees due to arthritis and the higher levels of humidity because of early summer rains. I had some skin cancer removed on my left forearm. It was only one spot, and they were able to get it all. No more cancer. PTL for these special blessings!
The churches are doing well and growing. Over 22 souls have been saved and more than 8 have been baptized in the churches. PTL! We had two S.E.N.D. Groups down these two months to help on two of our three church projects. Thanks you Bayshore Bible Church from Corpus Christi, TX for their help at the Los Jardines Ch. in Cadereyta putting on a metal roof and pouring a concrete floor!
Thank you Palmetto Ave. Baptist Ch. in Sanford, FL which built a new Sunday School building for the Soledad Mission! Tremendous blessings from both groups, and 30 souls saved!
The Bible College graduation was a wonderful success with over 500 present under and around the tent! We graduated 11 students, had a great challenge preached by Pastor Pablo Luna and had dinner in the open air, all before the rain started PTL! It was a wonderful time with the students and church brethren. Thank you and God bless. Thank you for your faithful prayers and support.
Yours in Christ,
Rick and Susie
