Tuesday afternoon

It is 4 pm in Mexico, and we are on the bus back across the border for
another afternoon of inviting people to the service tonight. I want to
tell you about Hector Jiminez, who is our bus driver this week. We
first met him Sunday when he translated the American pastor's message
into Spanish. Hector works in the print shop, works around the
compound, and conducts all the services for the nightly meetings. He
is a very quiet, gentle man, but it is clear that God has His hand on
this man. When you pray for us this week, pray for Hector as he
ministers this week. I mentioned in my post that a group of Catholics
had met to pray against us last night. Bro. Jarvis told us that had
never happened before. So pray, pray, PRAY for the services each
night. You, church, gave so much to help us come down here - this is
your ministry for this week. As visitors down here, we can't minister
to the people here. But the really cool thing is, they can't do it
without those who come here. It's almost like God is saying no one can
claim the credit for what He does.
