Dear supporting churches and praying friends :
The miracle of life!
Our gracious and all powerful God granted us two births in the month of July. The third week of July we were able to work and teach the Spanish 9—12 years class in the VBS at our home church. We had a great week seeing 4 members of our class come to know Jesus Christ as their Savior. More than 90 accepted Christ that week as we averaged more than 600 daily. On Tuesday of VBS week, Kayla expressed her desired to be saved. After dealing with her and confirming her understanding, she prayed and God gloriously saved her. God says that any man in Christ is a new creature, and even in this 4 ½ year old we have seen a difference. She has always been a good girl, but now she is so concerned about always pleasing God, dad and mom. What a miracle that God does in man when they turn from their unbelief and place their faith only in the shed blood of Jesus Christ.
God performed another miracle of birth on July 28 at 12:55 pm with the birth of 7 lb 8 oz , Noelia Stark. We praise God He has chosen to bless us with another daughter and the trust to raise up a soldier of the cross. God  God's Blessing protected through a couple of possible complications and Pilar and Noelia are both doing great. Thank you so much for you prayers, notes, thoughts and gifts. Continue to pray for Pilar’s recovery as the traveling picks back up for her at the end of August (all of September we will be in FL for meetings).
June was extremely full and God blessed greatly as we were able to visit many churches that are doing much for God. We had meetings in OH, MI, SC, NC, TN and PA. God has indeed blessed exceedingly, abundantly, above, more than we could ask or think. Praise God we are now at 72%. We were encouraged greatly as we saw churches that have been faithful over many years and other churches recently begun, that God is already mightily using.
• Kayla’s salvation
• Arrival of our precious Noelia
• Safe delivery for Pilar
• God’s amazing provision
Prayer Requests:
• Our support to quickly be at 100%
• Pilar’s dad, Francisco, for his salvation
• The Contreras Family and the new work in Gijon
• Preparation in the hearts of Spaniards |
