WAIT A MINUTE !

My last post I told you about a house which is great for us  and the church. We were get things ready and making changes to the house to move in soon. We now find out that the owner is still trying to sale the house. The owner are in need of money. There has been two different people looking at the house that want to buy.
We have stopped everything. We ask that you pray for us. We would really like to buy the house but we need ten thousand dollars for the down payment. Pray that God will show us the right direction to go from here. We know that God will supply our need. Thanks you for your prayers.

Moving

We were stilling Reynan's mother's house right now. We have found a house in the next  part of  Zaragoza. This section is called Macarse. Macarse is about fifteen mintues from from the main market in Zaragoza. It is mostly farmland. There are two to four other towns out in the rice fields. This is a great opportunity to share the gospel. The other Baptist Churches in this area main outreach in the city. We will be reaching the farmers and the people that are hard the reach.
We are rent the house for 2000 piso per month. We would like to buy the house and land which is 600,000 piso. We are praying for the land and finances to do so.
There are repairs to be made so we hope to move in by the first of November.

The Angels Are Singing

The Angels are sing and Heavens are  rejoices. We have seen eleven souls saved last week. We have stayed in Nueva Ecija and the Lord has blessed.
Amen!!!

RETURN

We have safely returned to the Philippines. You all know that the plan when we returned would be to move to Laguna.We traveled to Laguna and found a house to return. We had plan to move in October. But God has changed our plans. We soon learned that the Pastor in Laguna changed his plans and is not moving.  So we are praying wholeheartedly for God's guidance to where we soon be. Please pray.

Our journey to New Jersey

We are traveling to a supporting church in New Jersey. We left early in the morning on July 7. We drove 13 hours to our first stop Fresno, Ohio. We met with our wonderful friends Pastor Neal Dearyan and his family. We shared our ministry with Chili Crossroad Bible Church. The church family at Chili were very welcoming and a warm heart toward missions.
We stay with the Dearyan's and enjoyed the christian fellowship. we were given a great tour of the hilly county side of Ohio. The views were breathtaking. God has shown His awesome power.

South Iowa bible camp

We are bless to take part in Bible camp for two whole weeks in June. South Iowa Bible camp is my (Rachel) childhood Bible camp. I started going there when I was in third grade. Bible camp was a huge part of my spiritual growth as a kid. I also was a consular at Bible camp for two years. The camp nurse was one of my camper back in the day. I had good feelings returning there. South Iowa Bible camp is not a fancy, big, or luxurious. It has a Bible forced schudle with fun and a lot of games mixed in. We were there for teen week and junior week. There was an average of forty campers each week. Reynan had the opportunity to talk to the campers about missions and our ministry. Reynan challenged the campers to have a open heart to God's direction in their life's. A couple of campers surrender their lives to God's will in missions. We also had two campers in junior week get saved. Praise God! We are thankful to have the opportunity for service God at camp.

IOWA

IOWA, OH, IOWA!
We are now staying in Red Oak , Iowa. Red Oak is my home town.  We are blessed to be staying with my youth  pastor, when I was young, and his wife. Ed and Jane are a huge blessing.
We have visited a couple of churches in the area. But we have not been able to raise any more support. We are still at 30% of our support. We are waiting on God's timing to fulfill our every need.
In June we will be at a Bible camp for two weeks. We will be sharing our ministry to the campers there. The camp was also the Bible camp I went to as a camper and counselor. It will be fun to return.
Prayer requests
1-God to help Reynan make calls to churches for support
2- Zech  health with his allergies
3- God's will for all that we do.

Back in the States

We are safely back in America. Rachel and Zech arrived on Friday. The trip was long but was good. Zech did great on the airplane. He slept a lot. Reynan has arrived on Sunday. We are in Chicago now. We will be in Chicago until April 13th then we will travel to Iowa.
