Needed Bibles Received!!

Earlier this month we shared with you that the three new missions needed Bibles as all were new Christians. No one owned a Bible. We asked for 43. We bought 25 Bibles but still needed more. But  there were now 14 newer converts also hungry to learn more about what the Bible was saying to them. This has made a total of fifty seven new converts this month just in these three new villages.

A wonderful Mexican family living here in Huatulco bought eight more and then another missionary friend in Oaxaca City used our new Pay Pal service to buy the balance. Now the new converts in the Rio Granada, San Martin and San Isidro villages will all have new Bibles this weekend.

Pastor Damian has reported they keep him going very late asking questions as he shares the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He wants to teach them about God's powerful living Word and how Jesus wants to live in their lives helping them to know the joy of living a Christian life.

 Also while I was in Lachiguiri last week, one of the pastors came by asking for five Bibles for new teenagers who had recently accepted Christ into their hearts.

Thanks to those who were led to give this time for Bibles.

Annual Family Fiesta

It is almost that time again for the third Grand Fiesta on the beach of San Agustín. Last year this event resulted in the starting of one new mission church in El Arenal where we built a open palapa church. It is one of our fastest growing missions. Also the church at San Agustín has grown and is a strong work. 

Pastor Damian feels that this year there will be twice the people come who came last year. The same group from Cristo Por Su Mundo will be there to minister to the people and the children. The fiesta is scheduled for April 16 and 17. 

This is also the time in Mexico to celebrate Children of Mexico. When you have a fiesta for children, the whole family comes. Mom’s, Dad’s, Grandparents, older siblings, Aunts and Uncles, etc. It is a fun time with many activities but with the focus of the Gospel where we present Jesus our Savior to the people. 

This is our major outreach program to these communities. 

Pastor Damian also wants to bring down from the mountains all the three new missions for the two day event. We hope to have Bibles for them when we see Garett this coming week.

I will be posting in the following days all that we need to do to prepare for this event. To start we need supporters to join us in a covering of prayer. There are new Spiritual attacks coming against those who are presenting the Gospel in this area. Let us know if you are willing to be a part of the Prayer team.You can go to the How can I help button on our web page at Get Involved to see the needs of this event.

Need Bibles

Met with Pastor Damian yesterday. He said there are 43 adults who are coming to one of the three new missions each week all needing Bibles. Our cost is 5.00 dollars per Bible and Garett can bring them to us a week from tomorrow. If God should lay it on your heart to help with Bibles let us know. I would love to order 2 cases which is 48 Bibles.

Damian's going to provide more photos right away, will post asap.
