Prayer Requests
Dear Blog followers,
Please accept my apology for not posting anything the past few weeks. It has been a very trying time for me personally and I have been very discouraged about the number of people following the blog. After much prayer and searching, I have decided that even if only two or three read the blog, it is worth it.
Thank you for standing in the gap for the work in Mexico. Don’t give up! We need your prayers.
For the only Cause that matters,
Margaret
We praise the Lord for the safe arrival of Anya to join her sister Nisha and Mom Helen and Dad Steve. She is healthy and happy and growing strong. Pray for Nisha as she continues to adjust to this new addition. We are thankful that grandparents on both sides were able to be here and meet Anya.
We mourn with Robin and Benito as they said farewell to Robin’s mom in early March. Pray especially for Robin and her brother Todd as they grieve this loss.
We mourn with Robin and Margaret’s Mexican family as they grieve the loss of Mama Margarita. Pray that the God of all comfort will be with Velina, Lucia, Aida, Rebeca and their families at this time. Their father went home to be with the Lord just last May.
We also mourn with Guille, our OMS secretary, whose mother went home to glory.
We rejoice with those who came to know the Lord during the final English classes last week. Pray for the 13 who prayed the sinner’s prayer.
Praise the Lord for the nearly 100 people being baptized in our churches on Easter Sunday. Ask the Lord to strengthen their faith for following Him in obedience. Pray for those who are hesitant yet still want to be obedient.
Pray for a new house for Leslie and Brenda closer to the school that Darina will be attending this next school year.
Pray for Nick, Lisa, Hannah and Samuel studying Spanish in Costa Rica. Samuel had a bout with strep throat and Hannah has been diagnosed with celiac. Pray for God’s continued protection on this family as they are in their final months of language study.
Pray for the team in Ixtapalapa. Pray for Leslie, Cesar and Zoel as they reach out into the most densely populated area of Mexico City. Pray for Zoel especially as he transitions from the Naucalpan team.
Ask the Lord for much fruit from this week’s special services. Pray that the full impact of the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross will be felt and that many will come to realize their need of a Savior.
