Dear precious friends,
I cannot tell you thank you enough for your faithful prayers for my family during the past two weeks. I think that just two weeks ago yesterday I wrote and told you to pray because my sister had had an aneurysm. We really truly believed God would raise her up from her hospital bed, but His ways are not our ways and His thoughts not our thoughts. We don’t know why but He chose to take her home with him and our hearts are aching with the hurt. It really was a shock to me how much you can hurt — the hurt is amplified by the fact that everyone that you love is hurting as bad, if not worse, than yourself. If it were not for… Continue reading

Never needed prayer more
Dana
Thank you for your prayers for my family. My sister, Dana, went to be with
the Lord Jesus yesterday. It is so shocking and we are struggling but we
know that God is always good even when it doesn’t feel good. He is perfect
in all His ways. Pray for my parents and her husband and 7 children
especially. They need to trust God for His new mercies and grace each day

Please Pray
I am on my way to the US this morning. My sister had an aneurysm and
right now the doctors have said she has a 50-50 chance of living and
even after that only a 20% chance of being her normal self again. But
God is bigger than that. I will be at my parents’ house for this
week. Carlos is going with me so that I don’t have to travel this way
alone — thank God for his visa. Someone got our tickets with
frequent flyer miles so that was taken care of. We will be at my
parents’ home until the 18th (if we can’t get back any sooner — the
flights are pretty full for Christmas time). Their number is
706-731-5216. Please be praying for Dana’s recovery… Continue reading
I am Thankful for you
Hey Everyone,
Happy Thanksgiving (yesterday). I wanted to let you know how very grateful I am to the Lord for each of you and for your faithful prayers and support of Destino del Reino. I am so amazed at all the friends that God has brought in our ministry in so many different ways — family, old friends, new friends, people in airports, people at stores, etc. It is truly amazing how God is putting together such a base of prayer support for us through people all over the world. I believe he has made our base so huge because, one day when we are finally starting sending out our children as missionaries into the uttermost parts of the world, some of you will be supporting them and the ministry… Continue reading
