Prayer Request

Hola Padres! We have a prayer request for all of you. Jenna has come down with nasty symptoms of a sinus infection. She wasn´t feeling yesterday and tonight it has become worse. Luckily one of the ladies of the church we are working with is married to a doctor, so he took a look at her. He prescribed her for an antibiotic to hopefully relieve her of her illness. Please pray that she will be healed quickly and feel better as soon as possible. Also pray that the sickness does not spread to the rest of the team.

On a brighter note, our great day continued after VBS when returned to eat a fabulous tradition Mexican meal. We had carne asada con legumbres y camarones which is roasted meats (steak and chicken), vegetables and shrimp. It was by far the best meal we´ve had down here, and possibly in (some of) our lives. After lunch, we traveled to Cazatlan where we held a fiesta of sorts, in the main plaza of the town. Many people showed up to play games, listen to our music, watch us perform our dramas and listen to Pastor Monrique preach. We thought the fiesta might become a disaster when rain clouds began approaching about a fourth of the way into it, but God prevailed. The rain held off until the exact minute that we ended. Praise God! In the end, two older people accepted the Lord. Praise God again!

Please pray that our work will continue to impact the people of Mexico and things will continue to run smoothly.

Wonderful news! Lives are being touched. Keep relying on the Holy Spirit. We will be praying for Jenna (for quick recovery)and the rest of the team (staying well, ministry, etc.).

A special "hi" to Nats. We miss you and love you.

News on Ryan: He got a good report from the doctor. He is all healed.

Mom and I took a quick trip up to Two Harbors. Fun was had by all.

Love,

Dad

Hi Nick, thanks for sharing all the news! It’s great to hear about all the exciting things that are happening in Durango! One of the best feelings/experiences that Karen and I have had during our short term mission’s trips is; “knowing that we are exactly where God wants us to be and doing exactly what God wants us to be doing”. And that is our prayer for you guys. Please keep encouraging the kids to ask God every day to use them in some way. I know God will honor that prayer and He will use each and every one of you in at least some small way. And quite likely, in some big way!
Tell Jenna that we are praying for her to get better immediately. And tell everyone else that we are praying for good health for each of you. We are also praying for strength for you guys….. 120 kids!!!!! And I’m guessing that you had more today!! We will also pray for you leaders. Thank you so much you guys for going with our kids and providing them with the chance to have this experience.
Please tell Corey that we love him and miss him. I bet he loved the steak and chicken dinner that you guys had. Also tell him that the Twins lost a heartbreaker last night 1 – 0. A great pitchers dual (Baker vs. Dice K) until the Red Sox scored in the 8th.
That’s all from the Dreyer’s for now. Thanks again for the updates. We love reading them.
Steve, Karen and Rachel
