JUNE – JULY 2019
Greetings in the precious name of the Lord Jesus Christ,
We trust this letter finds you well; Liz and I are grateful and thankful for your support of our work in Mexico. The Lord is faithfully answering your prayers.
So where do we start? So much has been happening in our ministry. First of all, we have purchased a piece of property for the future site of Open Door Baptist. We are so very grateful for our sending church Open Door, pastor Murphy, Grace Baptist Church, and pastor Shanks and to Brother Wade Ekberg who made the purchase possible. The property is right inside our area of labor which in itself is no small miracle, as there is precious little land within Fco. De Montejo. But our God is bigger than any obstacle we may imagine. Here we are with the title deed and the other photo shows the proximity to our neighborhood.
In addition to the land purchase, our cup continued to overflow. We saw a need for vehicles to run routes. We had been using our truck, but it was limited in what we could do. We prayed for a van which costs around 4,000 $US and several churches responded. In the end the response was so overwhelming we were able to purchase not just 1 van but 2!
We are so thankful to Cornerstone Baptist, pastor Doug Black, Cornerstone Baptist, pastor Ron Ralph, to Bible Believers Baptist, pastor Bevans Welder, to Berean Bible Church, pastor Paul Owens, to Prospect Avenue Baptist, pastor Phil Owens and to Zion Baptist, pastor Ernie Goode. May God continue to bless their ministries.

In addition to these material blessings, God has been moving in our church. We are averaging about 50 in regular attendees on Sundays and have seen baptisms, and great joy to see men and women stepping in to serve. We have a great excitement for what lies ahead as the Lord is moving in a very glorious way through Iglesia Bautista Puerta Abierta.
Thank you for your prayers, your sacrificial giving and may God continue to recompense your labor of love.
Mitch and Liz
