MARCH / APRIL 2020
Dear Friends in Christ, March / April 2020
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 us and the work in Mexico.
Susie and I are doing well, and Susie continues to recover from the torn tendon in her right foot. Thankfully she is able to walk carefully without crutches now and is able to do therapy at home. Thank you everyone for your prayers.
Mexico is on lock down because of Covid-19. Stores, restaurants, and businesses are closed and only a very few have been allowed to stay open with strict guidelines. Travel from town to town is very restricted and monitored with road blocks checking the reason for your travel. Nationally there are about 68,000 confirmed cases and 500 deaths.
We praise the Lord for His blessings on the ministry. The churches are doing well but are having to do services through social media outlets. Evangelistic efforts and passing out tracts are very limited right now, but there have been several souls saved through social media and phone calls, and have been added to the churches.
We have finished up the classes on line at the Bible Institute PTL! That was crazy; and we had to cancel our 40-year mini-conference celebration and graduation for the class of 2020. We do not know yet when we will be able to have the graduation. The shut-down will continue through the summer and maybe even into early Fall. God bless you all.
Thank you all for your faithful prayers and support.
Yours in Christ,
Rick and Susie
