This week we have had noticed 1 new supporting church that has sent in, another one emailed saying they will, and we have a few that we are promising to send in. We have had 3 new churches scheduled this week. We have our dvd and was wanting to make copies of it but are not able on our computer but was able to get all the pictures to the same format as the other. Now I am just working on the audio files to get them to work smoothly. As soon as its done then I will post it on the web site for anyone who wants to see it........

Calling pastors

We are now back in Texas. We have spent some time with Crystal's family. I have been calling pastors trying to get into churches. We have scheduled a few new churches. Crystal took this picture when David was calling pastors after our niece decided David needed my sunglasses and her hat on. Just thought we would share this picture of what david does during the day.

Missionary retreat.

We arrived at the missionary retreat. Last night message was wonderful. Enjoying our time here. Very restful after being on the road and also camp for over a month now. Our car broke down yesterday and it turned out to be the alternator. We got it fixed and now it running but seems to be rough a little. It seems to have smoothed out but we are going to drive it around for the next few days to see if it is fixed. Please pray for this.
Here are the missionary ladies on the mw list.

on the road again
Well since the last post of the salvations we have had 3 more. Wednesday we went back to Reynosa and was able to lead 2 deaf to the Lord and our friend with us lead a hearing lady to the Lord. We have left the border and are very sad. We hated leaving. We wanted to stay and start ministering to the deaf. We have deaf in different cities begging for us to come and work with them. Pray for us as we travel that we can get into churches and they can take us on. We have some churches that have promised support but have not sent in yet but we are estimating we are over 1/2 way there with the new changes. Please pray for us this month as we are busy with churches that the Lord will open the doors for support.

camp


Wow camp was so wonderful. We had 6 saved and one come forward for asurrance of salvation. Wow what a blessing it was. David was able to lead one of the 6 to the Lord. Crystal worked with the kids during the sessions and one of the mothers got saved. We are on cloud nine. Please pray for us as we travel around to gain support that we can get back to the people God has called us too. The week went by so fast that as soon as we got there we were packing our stuff up to come back. =( We are really hating to leave Mexico again, each time it gets harder and harder. There is a leader meeting in April at the church in Guadalajara, please pray that we will have the opportunity to go since they are planning meeting for camp and plans for the deaf churches. Thank you all who have helped us to come here this week with your finances and with your prayers. The seven are worth it.

We are here in Mante
We are here in Mante. Our week something like this. Tuesday driving to oklahoma. Wednesday to Texas. Thusday got somethings ready for camp and went to a church service in Reynosa. Friday finish getting things ready and went to reynosa, spent 2 hours getting our visas and then crystal help make tamales. That night we had 23 in the deaf service there. Praise God! We presented the gospel although no one got saved, the seed has been planted. We were amazed by the turn out for the first time meeting. Pray for them as they need a church as so does the deaf all over Mexico. Went visiting the deaf tonight had a good time of fellowship. Having services in the morning for them and then heading out to tampico. We will be in tampico for church tomorrow night and carry some people to camp. As we pass through mante we are hoping to have 1 come with us. Please pray for the deaf here the JW are very strong and the deaf are like a sheep with out a shephard going every which way. We need to get back here soon. Camp starts in 2 days and can not wait to tell you about it. Dios Te Bendiga

on our way
We are on our way for a two week trip to Mexico. We are so excited about this we can not wait to get back "home". We will be spending a few days in Cd Mante to encourage the deaf to come to camp and also have a church service while we are there. Please pray for us during this travel. We will try to keep you updated while we are down there but it maybe hard. We are praying for souls to be saved and lives changed, we are asking you to partner with us in this prayer.
