Hello Brothers and Sisters in Penny Rile.
It is an opportunity again to write you and tell about my work here in Tegucigalpa as your missionary, first I
want to say thanks so much for all you do for Lourdes and Me, and the work in Mateo is doing well, with a lot
of responsibilities and busy time. But the church with different areas is doing well. Now we are in rain time,
this year we will receive a lot of rain. And many families live close to the River and could be dangerous for
them. Ask prayers to them.
My family in Choluteca is doing well, my mother had a very hard accident her hand was cut, she received a big
surgery and she is recovery and physical therapy. My whole brothers are doing well and my only sister too.
The Church in Mateo is doing very well in all areas, as you know we are working in 3 areas as ours abilities
and skills deserve, Leopoldo as the Preacher also gave us other participation and privilege in the regular
services and special topic for Lourdes. Also the church received 2 families of students from Baxter practices and
2 singles every weekend.
Here are some activities we did during last 2 months:
In May and June we received about 5 groups from US working on: building wood houses, , water system
collector , also they did VBS, chicken coop and rabbit coop, we had baptized, child presentation, Mother Day´s
Celebration and many activities more.
