Dear Pastors, Churches, Friends & Family,     

June 1, 2013 (Apr. – May ‘13)

Greetings in Jesus’ Name!  We were very busy lately knowing we had just the month of April left in Mexico before heading to the United States for a brief visit.  The month of April was a “shaky” time here.  We had eight earthquakes during the last two weeks of that month which ranged from 5.2 to 5.9 on the Richter scale.  Earthquakes are somewhat common in Mexico City but normally not at that frequency.  Looking back on the seismic activity the reason is clear now because this was all a precursor to the violent eruption of the volcano (Popocatepetl) just outside Mexico City.  This volcano is normally active letting off steam on a regular basis but this time it spewed out molten lava and showered the neighboring towns with much ash.

Oh how important it is for us Christians to impact and make a difference in the lives of others. Amen!

We have struggled some with allergies recently as it is that time of year here. The allergens and pollution compounded with altitude can make breathing difficult. One blessing to our elevation being well over 9,000 feet here is when the rapture happens, we will have a head start (ha ha). Seriously, many continue to be saved, baptized, join the … Read More »
