We have had a very amazing and exciting two months and have been extremely busy, traveling in many parts of Mexico, teaching and preaching for the Lord Jesus Christ. We started off the month of February preaching in the beautiful state of Veracruz, first in a very hot part around Veracruz, Veracruz, and then in much cooler Xalapa, helping 4 different churches in evangelistic outreaches. Praise the Lord! We preached to over 1,000 people, with around 702 receiving Christ as their Saviour. Then in Puebla, we helped 2 churches, preaching the Gospel to 827 people, with around 612 people indicating they were trusting in Christ.
Later we had a long day of traveling, pulling a heavy trailer across different mountain ranges from Puebla, Puebla, to Guadalajara, Jalisco, to do more evangelistic campaigns. Although Guadalajara is known to be sometimes dangerous, there is a great harvest to be reached. During our time in Guadalajara, we helped 5 churches do mass evangelism outreaches, just as we see shown in the ministries of the Lord Jesus Christ and also Peter, the disciples, and Paul in the book of Acts, reaching the multitudes for the Lord. Well, the Lord blessed the preaching of the Gospel in Guadalajara and helped us to reach around 2,073 people for the Lord Jesus Christ. Oh, to God be all the glory, honor, and praise!
This was truly an exciting evangelistic effort to take the Gospel to others, as the Lord Jesus Christ has commanded us to do. There was a young man traveling with me who wanted to learn more and be involved in this wonderful outreach, and just the other day, he sent me a text saying that he was also able to help in an evangelistic campaign himself in Monterrey, Mexico, where they had over 650 people in attendance! Oh, the harvest truly is plenteous, and we just need more laborers. Please continue to pray with me that the Lord would raise up more laborers, evangelists, and servants to take the Gospel all over the world!
So thank you so much for helping us to make a difference for the Lord Jesus Christ. Please pray that God would open up more doors of opportunity for us and give us His power, love, and wisdom to reach more souls for the glory and honor of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Yours for souls,
