We passed out over 750 tracks and candy for a churchs track and treat on Halloween.At the track and treat we meet a deaf couple and invited them to church along with many Hispanic families. We have made arrangements to talk to a deaf lady who is interested in working with the deaf. Please pray for this lady. We are so excited about coming to the end of deputation even though we do have a couple months left.Pray that these churches and ones we were at will partner with us.

already october....
Already October? I am so sorry we keep forgetting to blog often. We have had some good meetings and 2 of the last 3 have taken us on for support and the 3rd is promising. Please pray for us as we try to raise that last little bit that we need. We are planning on leaving the end of March first of April unless the Lord leads otherwise. We are in IL right now and will be in and out for the next few weeks. Since the last post we have seen some people surrender to mission work and also meet some people who have a love for deaf people. Please pray that as we are presenting in these churches God will call more people to work with the deaf. In America there is over 18 million and in Mexico over 6. The need is great and is increasing daily. Add on to follow our blog if you have not already by going to www.blogger.com Thank you for your prayer of our ministry and for us.

Times flies!!!!
We have had 4 new supporting churches and 3 that have promised to take us on. We just finished interpreting at a camp for a deaf boy. God is working in our ministry even on deputation. We are so amazed at Him even using us. We have seen people surrender to full time ministry. Pray for us as we travel and that we will be able to go to deaf camp in mexico this year...... Thank you for your prayers and love...

Mission conference
Just finished a wonderful Mission Conference in TX. We ate monkey on a stick.... and many other wonderful foods. IN the last two months we have had 2 churches promise to support us and a few that are going to be voting on us and we are praying that they will partner with us. We have been in many wonderful churches this year and are thankful for each one.... We are getting closer to going home. We can not wait. Hopefully we will be able to go to camp this year. It is July 20-25 in Mante. Yes that is the same mante we are heading to. We are so excited and can not wait.....

Back in Texas
We are back in the wonderful state of Texas. We have the next 2 months scheduled here in Texas (except 1 in oklahoma). We had some good meetings in the northeast. Had a couple say that they would pray about taking us on and a couple say not now but they will add us eventually. Please pray for us that we can get into more churches and those we have been in will take us on.

nyc
We have been in NJ/NYC. Sunday we had a deaf teen age girl come to church because we were there. She is not saved but we did witness to her and show her what the bible says. Please pray for her as we will be keeping in contact with her and continue witnessing to her via email. Also we went to NYC on Monday via subway and ran into a deaf man and later a child of a deaf adult (coda). Please pray for us as we are running into deaf while we are here that we will be able to lead them to the Lord. Monday we saw the statue of liberty, ground zero and a few other places. As we stood in awe of these historical places and the meaning behind them, we remember and praise God for our freedom in this country while we have it.

Thankful
We are thankful for all our supporting churches and prayer partners.Thank you for praying for us as we raise our support. Please continue to pray for us. We seen new churches take us on and we have also seen churches lower or drop there support due to the economy. Pray as we talk to pastors that God will open the door to present our ministry and burden to the people and also that we will see a increase in our support level.

Feliz Navidad y Ano Nuevo
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Wow can you believe it is 2009 as i write this. That is hard to imagine. Hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas remembering that it is the time we celebrate our Lord's birth. As we bring in a New Year may we all look to Him more this year. Please pray for our support to increase so we can get to the field by next year. We are slowly getting closer. We spent Christmas with crystal's mom in dallas. We are looking forward to hearing from some of you on how you celebrated Christmas and the New Year.
