She's the only christian

So... what really has me excited and nervous right now...

A little town, hidden amongst the green backdrop, looks up to the mountains. 45 minutes from Petatlán. Rancho nuevo it's called by all those around (new ranch).

In a small house, behind a closed door lives a little old lady. "Quien es?" she asks through the door, wondering who is on the other side.

She's blind.

She's the only christian in her town.

And that is why we are there.

Mago and I will be going again on sunday. We desire to start a home group there, convert and disciple people.

It simply takes time and effort, courage and faith.

Pray for us. The gospel is not always seen as true, around here sometimes the only things accepted has to come from their traditions, and not the word.

Bet

Thank you for your prayer and support.
For Prayer:
1. Here's a video of the youth (that one of the kids made), so you can see that they are crazy hehe.



They are a blessing. I am going to start training youth leaders this coming week. I need wisdom. We all need passion.
2. If you didn't know, I am studying distance education. (supposedly haha). And I hope to continue this fall. I need perserverance.
3. I am hoping to travel to the US the first of next year, and I need to visit the churches that have been supporting me. So I will be travelling from Minnesota to New York. If you and your church wouldn't mind a Bethany visit, it would be cool to stop in and say howdie :) I need prayer to help raise my support level, and God's guidance.
