We are very thankful to the Lord for the last year in relation to the assembly here in Springdale. In spite of a general lack of interest among people that are known in the neighbourhood around the hall. The Lord blessed us with a few souls that professed to be saved among the believers children. We have a handful of young people that are thinking about baptism. Seven people were added to the fellowship of the assembly. including three couples. We don't think that we are doing much. but the Lord has been so kind and has helped us during the year 2017.
We continue to visit Mexico as much as we can. I made three trips to Mexico last year with the desire to help a little among some works and some assemblies. We plan to make several visits down there. in the Lords will. We keep sending help to Venezuela as much as our resources allow us. Please keep praying for the believers in that country and the great material need that they are lacking. Many are hungry and lack the medicine that they desperately need. Recently three of the Lord servants were robbed and almost all their belongings. taken away.
In one more year. our son Noel will be out of school. He has had many struggles due to his impairment and it is a challenge for us to know what to do and how to orient him when he is out. Please pray that we may have wisdom to guide him and the strength to carry it out.
Winter 2017
