Queridos hermanos en Cristo:
Paz,Salud y Misericordia tengan todos ustedes de Dios padre de nuestro Señor Jesucristo.

Dear brothers in Christ: That you all have the peace, wellness, and the mercy of God the Father of our Lord Jesus.

Este es el reporte de lo que paso este domingo 1 de Marzo.

This is the report of what happened this Sunday, March 1st.

Fuimos 41 personas en el servicio mas 2 invitadas (última foto)
Se llamam Teresa y su hija Brenda (son mama y hermana de teresa, esposa de Cesar, los maestros de la escuela dominical); ellas comieron con nosotros despues del servicio y me preguntaron que si podian reunirse en la iglesia. (obviamente les dijimos que si)
La verdad es una gran bendicion "ver" como Dios permite que su obra cresca dia con dia en Gto, la iglesia esta en estos momentos muy animada con todo lo que esta pasando
(Clases,celulas de evangelismo, reuniones de mujeres los sabados, ect..) y sobre todo
que la integracion es cada vez mas evidente.

We had 41 people in the worship service (and also 2 guests). The guests were Teresa and her daughter Brenda (the mother and sister of Teresa, Caesar's wife - Teresa and Cesar are the Sunday school teachers); they ate with us after the service and they asked me if they could meet with the church (obviously I told them YES). The truth is that it s a great blessing to see how God is allowing His work in Guanajuato to grow day after day - at this time the church is very excited with what is happenening (classes, small evangelism groups, womens meetings on Saturdays, etc.) and above all that the inclusion (of the people in the activities of the church) is more and more evident.
Por eso y muchas cosas mas damos Gloria a Dios por su Bendita Misericordia para con su iglesia en Gto, sin embargo el domingo faltaron 13 personas que siempre vienen al servicio, por favor oren por ellas.
Muchas gracias por sus oraciones y por su ayuda en la obra misionera
Por su confianza y su amistad
Dios los bendiga siempre

For these and many more things we give thanks to God for his blessed mercy for his church in Guanajuato. Nevertheless, on Sunday we were missing 13 of the people who always come to the worship service - please pray for them.

Thanks so much for your prayers and for your help in the missionary work, for your confidence, and for your friendship. God bless you forever.
