NEWS FROM SOUTH OF THE BOARDER
WELL, HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL. IT’S NOW WINTER TIME, AND IT`S COLD DOWN HERE. THINGS ARE GOING WELL. A START OF A NEW MINISTRY . . . I WILL BE SERVING WITH CALVARY CHAPEL CHAPULTEPEC, UNDER PASTOR MARIO ANGULO. I WILL BE DOING THE SAME AS I WAS DOING BEFORE, WORKING WITH GROUPS, CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS, FEEDING FAMILIES, WORKING WITH KIDS, AND STUDYING THE WORD WITH PASTOR MARIO (AS WELL AS WORKING ON MY SPANISH, AND SPANISH WORSHIP ON THE GUITAR).
A LITTLE ABOUT THE CHURCH
IT’S THE SAME CHURCH I GOT MARRIED IN. IT’S A SMALL CHURCH WITH ABOUT 30 OR SO THAT ATTEND. IT’S BEEN AROUND FOR ABOUT 6 YEARS. THE PASTOR IS LOSING HIS EYE SIGHT, BUT IT DOES NOT STOP HIM. I HAVE BEEN CALLED TO HELP HIM. "THOUGH HE FALL, HE SHALL NOT BE UTTERLY CAST DOWN; FOR THE LORD UPHOLDETH HIM WITH HIS HAND." PSALM 37:24
THE FIRST GROUP I GOT TO WORK WITH WAS FROM CALAVRY CHAPEL MORENO VALLEY, CA. THE PASTOR AND ABOUT 10 OF US GUYS WERE WORKING ON A SIDEWALK ON THE SIDE OF THE CHURCH (NO MORE BEING IN THE MUD WHEN IT RAINS). THEY HAVE BEEN COMING DOWN ABOUT ONCE A MONTH SINCE THE CHURCH OPENED.
Some of the Guys Working Hard
Flooting Mud for the Walkway
Wow! Hapa Working!
PLANS FOR OUR CHURCH
THIS COMING YEAR WE ARE PRAYING TO NETWORK WITH SOME NEW GROUPS ON COMING DOWN TO VISIT OUR CHURCH, FIXING UP OUR KITCHEN, LOOKING FOR SOME UPPER CABNETS, A COUNTER TOP, REFRIGERATOR, A LITTLE TILE WORK, COMPTURES FOR OUR INTERNET CLASSES TO TEACH THE KIDS, FIXING UP THE CHURCH, CLEAN UP, SOME PAINT, WE STILL HAVE A LITTLE MORE CONCRETE WORK TO DO AND FINISHING UP OUR YOUTH ROOM (NEEDS SOME CLEAN UP AND SOME PAINT).
THIS SPRING WE WILL BE HOSTING A MENS CONFERENCE; AROUND 200 MEN WILL ATTEND. WE WILL HAVE GUEST SPEAKERS (I MIGHT BE SPEAKING ALSO), THERE WILL BE READING MATERIALS, FOOD, AND DRINKS. WITH GOD'S BLESSING, WE WILL ALSO BE HAVING A KIDS' DAY WHEN WE BRING ALL THE KIDS AROUND THE AREA, HAVE A BIG PARTY, PINATA, CANDY, GIFTS, FOOD, AND DRINKS. PRAYING FOR GODS HELP.
MY FAMILY NEWS
FROM MY FAMILY, HAPPY HOLIDAYS! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR GIFTS; THEY BLESSED US SO MUCH. TO START OFF, GABO TURNED 7 YEARS OLD, MY WIFE HAD A BIRTHDAY, I HAD A BIRTHDAY, AND LE`A IS GETTING BIGGER. WATCHING LE`A GROW UP IS SO COOL. PLAYING WITH HER AND JUST LOOKING AT HER WHILE SHE SLEEPS ~ IT HAS BEEN A BIG CHANGE IN MY LIFE. THINGS COULD NOT BE ANY BETTER FOR ME. CHRISTMAS WAS A BLESSING HERE, WATCHING GABO OPEN ALL HIS PRESENTS AND SPENDING TIME WITH MY WIFE’S FAMILY, BAJA STYLE. WE HAD A GOOD TIME, BUT I WAS THINKING ABOUT MY FAMILY IN OTHER PLACES.
"THEY SEND FORTH THEIR LITTLE ONES LIKE FLOCK, AND THEIR CHILDREN DANCE." JOB 20:11
