"Bless the Lord O my soul, and all that is within me bless His Holy name."

We are so thankful for the blessings of the Lord on our ministry. We are thankful for your faithful prayers and responses to our newsletter reports and petitions.

TRES DE OCTUBRE MISSION WORK:

Pastor Marco Tolantino has moved with his wife and children to the church property in order to better minister to this neighborhood. Pastor Marco is one of our institute graduates. Please pray for this new mission church as it has progressed to an average attendance of 80.

BIBLE INSTITUTE:

A 60 x 40 slab has been poured for a steel building we will use as a combination auditorium, kitchen, mess hall, library and study hall.

We are trying to import an office trailer in very good condition to the campus. Pray that we can raise the $2000.00 needed to get it to campus. We have 45 students at this time.

In January 2004 a group from the Faith Baptist Church in Linden, MI will begin construction on a dorm that will house up to 32 students. We are so thankful to Faith Baptist for their generous help.

THE NEW HIGHWAY:

The highway is here. An overpass is going up over the road we use to get to the institute. Four miles from the institute another bridge is started. Still no word about who will finance it. Pray it will be a toll road so adjoining property owners to the new highway will not bare the burden of the cost.

Grace Baptist church Pompano Beach, FL, our home church, called Brother Art Larson as pastor. Grace Baptist brought us home to meet Pastor Larson. During our week home we were pleased to get to know Pastor Larson and learn he is very mission minded. We were invited to participate in Grace Baptist’s annual mission’s conference while there and rejoiced as our Faith Promise goal was greatly surpassed.

Eph. 1:3. We appreciate your interest, your prayers and support for our ministry here in Old Mexico.
