March Reports

Brothers and Sisters in Jesus,
Receive a kind greeting: that the blessings of the Lord will always fill your lives.
I went on an emergency trip from Sucre to Ecuador and the house of my grandparents because my grandmother was sick. I read to her from the Word of God before she died. It was a strengthening for her and for everyone. I had the opportunity to tell the Words of Life a couple of times and although most of the family and friends are Catholic, I had the honor of sharing the Bible. Thursday my grandmother went to sleep and Saturday we buried her. I will be with my family for 24 more days and then travel to Sucre.
This situation was difficult, but it is the end of all humanity in this earth. The good news is that my grandmother obeyed the Gospel a couple of years before. The confidence in Christ gives hope; the strength comes from the Word of our Lord Jesus Christ.
May God continue to bless you powerfully. Thank you for all your help and for sowing in my life for the kingdom of God.

Friends and Family,
March was in a lot of ways a calm month for us. We had a university lunch with about 10 visitors besides our members. Besides that everyone´s schedule has been pretty normal. My ladies´ class continues to go well along with my one-on-one studies. On one of the Saturdays I took the youth to hand out church and El Camino fliers at one of the main parks. They did really well and stopped to talk to a lot of the people they gave fliers to and when we had passed out more than 100 fliers we went and played pool.
Luis has preached a couple times this month and continues to teach the youth group. It´s been wonderful to see the youth growing and maturing. A lot of them are really finding their foundation in Christ and continue to encourage one another.
The weather has been changing as we enter into fall and we´ve had a lot of cold days already which has caused a lot of people to be sick including the Torres. Hopefully the weather will stop fluctuating so drastically soon.
Thank you for all your prayers and support. Your prayers strengthen us and give us peace through God.
God bless,Angela Myers



The Reyes Family
Friends and Family,
We have been blessed to have seen some of your during the past couple of months during our time here in the States. We have been blessed to witness our little Mia recover dramatically. We praise God for the health that she has experienced during this time and for the friends and family that have been with us in prayer during this time. She has seen a very good doctor here in the States.. and has been parasite free for 2 months now.. She is bright eyed, full of energy and 5 pounds heavier than when we came to the States. What a blessing. We have her currently on natural essential oils and probiotics to continue building up her immune system with all hope that she does great when we return to Bolivia in 3 weeks.
The kids have done great with all the traveling.. I have been so proud of them. We have received so much spiritual encouragement, that we often hunger for when we are in Sucre. It makes us so greatful to experience the family in Christ here in the States.. Don't take for granted what you have in your home congregations.. having elders and wonderful preachers and people that have served Christ for so long, is a priceless gift from God.
Thank you all for your prayers and the love we witness.
Love the Reyes family
