Dear Friends in Christ,                                                                                 May / June 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, but She had to go back to walking with crutches because of the slow healing of the tendon in her right foot and her arthritic left knee becoming overstressed.

As many of you know, Mexico is on lock down because of Covid-19. This is “social distancing” while waiting at a metro station. Nationally, the confirmed cases have risen quickly to over 36,300 and 3,500 deaths.                                                                                                                     Commuters at a metro station in Mexico City

 The churches are doing well but are having to do services through social media outlets like so many others. Mother’s Day had to be done on line of course. But here, people wait in a long line to enter a wholesale market to buy cakes for Mother’s Day celebrations because of Covid-19. It is reported that several pastors in Monterrey have died because of Covid-19.

We had to cancel our 40-year mini-conference celebration and graduation for the class of 2020 and still do not know when we will be able to have it. The shut-down was extended into the summer until July.

God bless you, and thank you for your faithful prayers and support.

Yours in Christ,

Rick and Susie
