Goodbye

  Mother's Day 2001, the day my father said would not happen. He and my mom became pastors of a small church in El Millon, Ciudad Juarez, Mx.At that time there was only one missionary church and 4 families that would go to church. 11 years later, so much has change. 3 missionary churches, over 150 members total, various activities during the year that includes; giving of school supplies, food bags in December, Christmas gifts, VBS. All of this could not have been possible with this two people, Francisco and Rosa Ramirez. 
May 2012 was their last month here in Ciudad Juarez. They have now taken another challenge in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. 
God has taken them to this city leaving behind church members, friends and even family. There are now pastoring a Hispanic church in Lake Havasu.
We thank you for everything you did here in Cuidad Juarez. 
You did great things here and know you will continue there. 
We love you and are being miss as we speak. 
                   God Bless you too!!

You two are one of a kind. 

We pray for you every night.

Take care of yourselves please.

God Bless you, today, tomorrow and forever!

Blessing from a special someone

While we were in Indiana in April-May a special someone came up to Lucio and I and gave us $20 dlls. This person said, I want to help! I want to give, help someone with groceries. Lucio and I had fun doing this story because we know that not only was this family being blessed but also this special someone that gave without  thinking twice was being bless too. So, Lucio and I we went to the local store here in Ciudad Juarez and bough 20 dlls worth of food and household materials. 

Benito and Juanita were surprise and very happy to be able to receive this blessing. Benito and Juanita do not work, but there children help them out. Sadly here in Juarez if you are not a young cat, it is very hard to find a job. No place is willing to hiring you because of your age and that is Benito's problem. Juanita and Benito are a couple from Riveras del Bravo. They are a beautiful couple inside and out. They help out and are faithful at church. Juanita wanted this special someone to know "Thank you. You are very kind to think about someone else. Thank you for remembering us here in Juarez when you are in the United States.God Bless you"

To you: Thank you! to see their faces and know that they needed this, you are a blessing. Don't you forget it!
