update May 20

Greetings
Last few weeks have been very interesting to say the least. Ana, Isaias wife usually does all the cooking here and all she asks is that I bbq hambergers once a month. Well last week it was my turn to bbq and I desided to invite a pastor and his family to join us. The night I ask them God ask me why only one pastor, I ended up inviting six pastors and five made it. These pastors all work locally here yet never get to meet one another, so this was a great oppertunity to meet and greet and they now have desided to do this once a month and invite even more pastors to join then in a pot lock supper here at the base. They all had a great time sharing and talking that I still even now a week later when I see then they say thanks. I am looking forward to how God will unite these churches and pastors from this piont forward. One pastor even ask me today on a possibility of putting together a pastor retreat in early fall for a couple days. Transportation is a problem for some of these pastors but they give it all they have to be a part of this. I have now invited most of the pastors we work with and the rest will be invited shortly. Please pray for these pastors and families as some of these pastors are not paid pastors from the church, they have jobs in the fields here..
Speaking of transportation: there is one pastor here, pastor Eli who is in need of a car. I know of a car,  1996 Acura and about 130,000 km on it. A very solid car. Valued at $4500.00.  I need to raise $3500,00 plus an extra $400.00 for gas and insurance to get it here, by mid June. There is an oppertunity to have it driven down here then. If we raise a little more than that the extra will go to her to help withher bible school she is taking. If anyone can help out here please contact Rob or Brenda.
I thank you for all your prayers and suppport and may God bless you.
