      We thank you again for prayers for my brother Mike. He is home (since last week) and is doing well in his recuperation. His kidneys are back to functioning "normally" but the medicines have caused the pressure in his eye to greatly increase. He is feeling that it will probably mean that the pressure valve will have to be inserted into his good eye. That is of major concern because any treatment with the eye usually causes more problems. Most of the other levels have returned to where they should be.
     Thank you for your faithfulness in praying, but please do continue to pray for Mike and Carol. It is a long journey and there will undoubtedly be more trials, but for now, we are praising the Lord "for his wonderful works to the children of men!" Psalm 107.

October 23, 2023                                                           Psalm 89:1 I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations. 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

  March/April, 2024   O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee, I will praise thy name; for thou hast done wonderful things; thy counsels of old are faithfulness and truth.     Isaiah 25:1   Dear Praying Friends,             Our God is so faithful and His counsels are always right. God has blessed us and the services and travels that we have made. It blesses us to see how God is still working in America, even though many appear to have turned their back on Him. HE still is faithful and never changes.             Recently, Gary’s closest friend, brother in the Lord and hunting buddy, Wendell Drake, passed away. Many times, we would arise early to hunt, eat breakfast, and then sit at the table sharing Bible verses or questions until afternoon. Thank you for those who responded that they were praying. Pray for the family as they adjust to this loss.             Ann’s mother, Casey, was diagnosed with cancer just as we were preparing to come home on furlough. Through pin-
