Update

For about a week now I have been thinking of what all I want to write to you all, but I have forgotten what the last news was that I sent. If I over lap a little you will have to forgive me.
In the beginning of July we had a group come that helped run a vacation bible school. It was a huge success and has left the mothers and children involved excited for our upcoming events. We have made a short video of some pictures from our events that we have done and will be sending it to you soon. In the video there are several pictures of the children praying. Children's prayers are so powerful. The time we spent (invested) in prayer with these children was my favorite.
After the VBS we got ready to head down to Mexico city to help with several other vacation bible schools. The night before we were to leave the transmission in the van went out. A week later we went down to Mexico city and there did a vacation bible school in a neighborhood where there is no Christian church within a 30 minute car ride. It was really powerful. It was a special experience for Felix and I too becasue we long for a church to be planted close to his family. This church is still a half hour away from them though. But we are moving closer. It blows my mind that Mexico city is the largest city in the world but yet has so few christian churches. People live on top of each other it is so populated but there are few christ preaching churches. It breaks my heart. yet I know that God is building my family's muscles up so that we will be prepared to return.
The day before we were to return the car blew a fuse and blew about 10 of them. We took the car to five different mechanics none of which could find the short that was causing the problem. Almost a week later, a mechanic inserted a new cable that rerouted the electricity so it could not blow the fuse. We loaded the car and started to drive home. An hour down the road our car stopped right in front of a mechanic shop. The mechanic there showed us that the car did in fact have a short. The short was in fact in the gas pump itself and by connecting the cable directly to the gas pump and not going by the fuse our car had become a bomb that would have exploded (or at least caught on fire) once the gas got below half a tank. The mechanic's remark was that someone wanted us dead and someone was keeping us alive. We know who both of those are. Praise God that he is victorious and kept my family safe.
With the car problems I missed the first week of interviews in Edinburg, Texas. Many of the positions have been filled please continue for God's provision for my family.
This week we begin preparations for our english class/bible study and movie group. Please pray for God's direction and for us to make the right connections with people in the colonia.
We have also moved into a house and are no longer living in a classroom. That is very exciting and a huge blessing. I will be posting pictures of it later.
I think of you all often and thank God for the prayer support you have given us. I know so many of you prayed for our protection and God truly did save us from a terrible accident. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS. I love to read your responses to my letter and hear news of your families.
Blessings,
