Praise the Lord for continual growth in the church! My associate, Luis, has been bringing the folks in week by week. The other day he told me he was out visiting and came across a man in the road who was shoveling dirt. Now, if you've ever been in Juárez, you know the roads are a bit rough. Many times there are men shoveling dirt into the pot holes during the day, hoping someone will give them a tip for trying to smooth the road out. Luis came across one such man, and felt a pull to stop and talk to him. The man said he was saved and was looking for a good church, but just didn't know where to look. He said he'd be visiting us on Sunday. Amen!
Since we've had new families pouring in, there have been several salvation testimonies and last Sunday we had a baptismal service! After the baptismal service, Jorge and his wife said they felt so wonderful. The smile of their faces says it all.
Health Update:
My family and I have been working on getting out back yard fixed up with flowers, bushes, and a vegetable garden. I was outside trimming the bushes one morning, planning on getting some yard work done. The rest of the day, I felt light headed, weak, and overall, not well. Rebecca took my blood pressure and it was very high. My doctor wanted me to go to the ER, but I felt that a little rest might be what I needed. When I saw my doctor the next morning, he told me I needed to stay out of the heat. Already, here in El Paso, the temperature is reaching 100 degrees! Overall I am doing well, I just need to remember to stay cool!
