Dear Friends in Christ,                                                                           July / August 2019

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 suffering a little with the aches and pains of arthritis in the heat and humidity here. Two grandsons are starting kindergarten this year, and boy are they excited about it! I think the parents are too – no more daycare!

We also praise the Lord for His  blessings on the ministry in the churches and the Bible Institute.

The churches are doing well, and have had more than 30 souls saved through their evangelistic efforts with at least 7 baptized! PTL! Several VBSs have been done reaching many children and some adults for Christ.

Also, the mission trip to the work in Cuernavaca to disciple new believers had to be postponed due to an illness of one of the national pastors. We are also making plans to organize the García Mission this Fall. We are trying first to finish the remodel of the auditorium and bathrooms.

We are getting things ready to start the new school year at Ambassador Baptist Bible College on the 2^nd of September. The students will be arriving soon, and there is much to be done. It’s exciting to have the opportunity to be a part of their preparation for the ministry.

Also, please remember Susie’s Christmas Kids Offering to help 500-600 kids with candy and gifts for the churches and Bible Institute kids!

Thank you all for your faithful prayers and support.

Yours in Christ,

Rick and Susie
