Coming soon to a church near you…<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
After our time to get settled into life in Tacoma we’ve begun our church
\nreporting and it’s been great to renew old relationships and see friends
\nagain. These two months we’ve been in a different church each Sunday,
\nso there’s been lots of traveling. We’re thankful to have almost all our churches within three hours
\nof Tacoma. It’s great to be able to thank people who have prayed for
\nus and partnered with us. As we were setting up our table at
\nthe church in Moses Lake a lady walked in and asked about the photos on the
\ndisplay. It was immediately obvious she knew of the people in the
\nphotos and had been praying for them. What an encouragement! One
\nother neat thing has been meeting several
\nSpanish-speaking visitors at churches. We love the chance to speak in Spanish with people! One
\nnew friend is a Mexican lady recently married to a local guy who arrived here only a
\nmonth ago. She has son Drew’s age who goes to the same school. The two
\nof them have hit it off pretty well and it’s been great to be able to help
\nher get adjusted to a new place and language.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
\n

We continue to
\nstay in touch with Chris and others from the church in Mexico. We
\ndiscovered a calling plan with unlimited minutes to Mexico for the same
\nprice as what we were paying before and are going to take advantage of that!
\nThings are going well in the church, with increased participation, a new
\nyouth group meeting and lots of new visitors. One bit of real good
\nnews is that a young woman who walked away from the Lord this past January
\nhas apparently repented and returned. We’re so thankful to hear<\/p>\n
