News From South of the Border

Hello to all and greetings in the name of Christ our Lord. Where to begin? The last two and a half months have been somewhat like living a Soap Opera.

SHORT AND SWEET

Please praise the Lord with us over Luis’ decision to surrender his life to Christ this afternoon during our study. Kay and Tonya took the kids, Emiliano and Santiago, to the park to play in order to give Luis and I some space. And did the Lord do a wonderful work! We shared a little … [Read More]
