Thank you all so much for the letters that you sent back to me. It is so awesome to know that you are there praying for our family. We have really felt the Lord move these last few weeks.
As many of you are aware Felix applied to Rio Grande Bible Institute for August admission. This is something we believe that he needs to do but we have been praying all along for God’s timing. We were work really hard to get all of his papers in but an issue came up with Felix’s medical exam. He failed two of the basic tests which then required more test and pushed everything back. There was also a problem with the papers we had about his high school. All of that made us miss the deadlines with the embassy. I was surprised by the way the seminary responded. The admissions director and his assistant both seemed to really take to us and told me that they were going to hold everything for January. They seemed to be as excited as Felix and I about him attending the school.
At first we were a little disappointed but now have peace that everything is happening in God’s timing. I am really excited though that this means we will be able to dive more into the mission here. Besides Felix can do class with the seminary by correspondence so he will still be moving ahead in his education.
On the 5th we start working with another group and will be busy since it is also the schools registration. We hope to make a lot of new contacts that day and make connections with people’s needs and resources that we have. We are beginning two weekly activities a church service and a family night. I hope to start a bible study the beginning of August for women I have three ladies already that have initiated conversations with me asking if something like that will happen soon. It is amazing to me how aware this neighborhood is of their need for a relationship or a deeper relationship with God.
Please continue to pray for a job for me (Salome), relationship time for Felix and me, and wisdom and guidance while making plans for the church.
I love hearing back from you and thank you so much for investing your prayers in us and partnering in our ministry.
Blessings,
Soriano Family
