Valentine's Day

We praise the Lord for the way He continues to bless the ministry in Guadalajara. Yesterday, at least 82 deaf showed up for our party commemorating Valentine's Day. There was at least one who asked Christ to save them, Carmen's mother. She has been in poor health and yet made the effort to come to the special day. She is at least 80, but felt she still had never really understood salvation. We are thankful that Ann was able to help her yesterday to understand the importance of taking care of her salvation immediately.
We had two brand new deaf who came and many returning again after earlier visits. We are so thankful for the large number of younger people who are now attending. We have a good group of teens and a very healthy group of 20-30 year olds. They have gotten saved and now as young adults, are excited to see the church move forward. They have immediately moved in to become the movers and shakers in the aspect of every Sunday's necessary planning, execution and clean-up.
We have received permission to take our wrecked truck to the border to find the parts necessary to repair it. That puts a chink in our armor as far as plans, but it beats waiting here for an estimated two months to receive the parts.
We thank you so much for your support, both prayer and financial. Keep checking here and we will try our best to keep you updated regularly.

Dear Praying Friends,      We are so thankful to be able to be home for furlough this year and have been in over twelve church meetings since arriving. It is so good to see how God brought His churches through the tough times of the pandemic and is slowly rebuilding those ministries as well as ours. Our God is always faithful.      Casey, Ann’s mother, is doing well with good days and days less joyful. She completed pin-point radiation and will have to wait a total of three months to see how effective it was towards the tumor. She had hesitated in going ahead with the treatment, but decided she should try to see if that would at least slow down the growth. She able to take care of her personal needs, but does need help with any extra care and at times is less stable on her

Dear Praying Friends,      You have been praying, haven't you? FIRST, Ann's bogus account was fixed, so there should be no more problems there. I don't do Facebook, but Cheyenne took care of it for us.      Yesterday was the test day for the whole church. Armando returned from Monterrey on Friday, so I scheduled a meeting with him on Saturday. The results of that will be explained in a minute.      Yesterday was also the day that our ex-deacon was to return with all the deaf he "won to Christ." It turned out that they had led 1 deaf person to the Lord. All of the rest (30-35) were people they took out of our deaf church.      Armando preached the regular service and ended the service without saying anything about his status. After the service was over, he asked if he could talk to the members. Amazingly, all non-members moved outside without a murmur. He began by explaining that he was totally in charge of taking care of his dad after his surgery because his only
