Why I’ve Been So Quiet

I haven’t written much in the past couple of weeks.  The fact of the matter is – I’ve been sick!  It’s been some kind of bug that took a long time to reach full power, and now it’s taking a long time to go away!

But life hasn’t stood still in the mean time (although there were a couple of days when I had to pretty much stand still – or lie still!).

I did start my study Where did the Bible come from? (and made it through without a coughing fit!).  I’ll be continuing it this week – the theme is The Four Witnesses.  It should be a lot of fun.

I’ve been involved in an outreach to another community this year, along with my friend José and his family.  It’s been a blessing to get to know a family there – a family who has been coming to services in Jesús María.

We’ve been doing some more evangelism there, and it will be interesting to see what God will do.  Would you like to come down and help out? 🙂

As has become the norm over the past few months, I have visas on the brain.  I talked with one of the Mexican Consulates in Canada this morning, and I’ll be going to Canada to work on paperwork next week.

We enjoyed a special service on Sunday, with probably more than half of the people attending being involved in one way or another!  We heard quite the testimonies, of God providing bread out of nowhere (have you ever had bread appear on the street when you needed it?  Sounds like manna…), and God providing in some very difficult circumstances.  Laughter and tears, let me tell you.

Shari is getting ready for a baking class on Thursday.  The kids have been involved in a kids’ club and Hannah’s been going to a study and another kids’ activity (baking and crafts)…  Yes, there has been a lot going on!

Just wanted to update you.  But I’d better get some rest so I can get over this bug.
