Thank you for your prayers. According to some this year's assembly was the most united and free events that the denomination has had. There were reports of what is going on in the churches and decisions were made for the future.
I just went for the first day. They were 3 long days and besides having a headache from Tuesday evening until Friday morning which required I rest and take lots of liquids I felt it was better for Tabitha that I didn't go every day.
Andrew's report seemed well received and he was unanimously voted in as the Social Ministries Director for UNIFAM (the National Church Denomination). Over the next weeks he will have follow-up meetings with the different pastors. He handed out a questionnaire to help them think about the needs in their church areas and how Social Ministries can help. Pray for wisdom to know how to put feet to our promises. Our desire is that people in Mexico will know that God cares for them because we as a church care for them and are interested in meeting their needs.
Yesterday evening Fidel and Juana, Alex and Paty came over to our place and we had a great evening together. Thank you for your prayers - we are really encouraged by the unity in the team at the moment.
It's back to our regular routine tomorrow. On Saturday a team of 8 people from our home church in Scotland, Carrubbers Christian Centre, arrives for two weeks. We are so looking forward to their visit!
