        Your prayers about the strong Catholic opposition in rural San Jose are bearing fruit. The new pastor, Luciano Sanchez, now ministers to 37 boys and young men through his soccer teams, and 60 attended each of their two Holiday services.
        Through counseling sessions Mary and I helped two couples restore their marriages. One
wife then recommended us to a troubled lawyer friend who later accepted Christ.
        Ceniceras and Araguas had a total of seventeen baptisms and six conversions. In August each church will be organized, and their pastor will be ordained.
        Seven pastors and two missionaries in three areas will begin institute classes in February. Two other men teach two courses weekly, while pastoring and working to provide for their families. Our materials enable each of them to train laborers for fields white unto harvest!
        Pastor Dimas Carias was burdened due to a lack of fruit in his church. New Years Eve, two souls were saved, plus two more in January. Our training program produces disciples burdened for the lost!
        For five long days Mary taught fifteen, two to six year olds in Vacation Bible School -alone! Exhausted, she then began final preparations for the Ladies' Conference. Thankfully, nine days before the Conference four ladies arrived from the States to help.
        A banquet, beautiful decorations, fellowship, low cost, and female speakers motivate the ladies to brave the cold weather in unheated dorms with cold showers. A record 133 national ladies attended.
        The special speaker, Donalyn Waldrup, was Mary's friend during their teens, and is a fellow member of Grace Baptist Church in Fort Worth, Texas. We appreciate our home church paying for her travel expenses, and Donalyn for blessing the ladies through her lessons.
