Special thanks & summer 09 closure

Sembradores de Cristo August 14, 2009,


Praise the Lord! We made it back safely to the border thanks to the help of the Alabama team and Brother Jesse. I got hit hard by a bad spell of vomit, extreme headache, amongst other things the night before travel almost not allowing me to travel with the team back to the border on Wednesday. God helped me survive the trip back with the team/family thus avoiding having to bus back to the border by myself later. Last night I sent out an e-mail with this summer ministry’s pictures. Please take time to look through and be blessed by Sembradores Summer Zacatecas 09 ministry, group ministry, locals/disciples, summer missionaries and beautiful Zacatecas/northern Jalisco scenery pictures. Pictures 13 & 71 will show summer missionary staff/volunteers Jesse Chaffen, Jeremy Payne, Joanna Magana, and Brenda Limones. Picture 19 will show a picture of the catechist so that you can pray for him and picture 120 will show Pastor Luis Aleman and his wife Delfa with your servants. During our last few days in Zacatecas we were able to make a smooth transition for Pastor Luis and Delfa Aleman in Parral de las Huertas, Monte de los Garcia, and Guadalupe Victoria. You can join us in prayer for their weekly ministry schedule:
Sunday 6:00 P.M-Parral de las Huertas
Tuesday 6:00 P.M-Monte de los Garcia
Wednesday 6:00 P.M-Guadalupe Victoria

The Elliott family would like to first give thanks to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for His many blessings this summer. None of this summer’s ministry would have been possible without His blessing, provision, direction, and guidance. We would also to give a special thanks to all of those who contributed to this summer’s ministry be it by prayer, financial, or by personal sacrifice/ministry. I will do my best to remember all participants. If I leave you out know that you are appreciated.
