Water emergency
Heidy was able to get some of the food providers to come during the night and bring vegetables and eggs but the providers are using the blockades as an excuse to raise prices. We need your prayers as this puts us over our food budget. I believe there…
Electricity for all of the property
The nearly 3000 pound generator is nearly in place. It took a very large group of technicians to put it in place. This generator will operate the entire property including the dialysis clinic on the back property. There are still over 80 blockades today. The children finished their…
Baking class
We are getting very low in food for the children as blockades continue. There are 97 blockades today. It is critical that we can find food. (As I typed this a call came that they were opening a lane for people to go to the grocery store so…
Beautiful Bows
Dottie has been making 2 or 3 bows for the girls evening gowns for quienceameras. Vanessa came to help for one month in a dorm. There are still blockades but they are staying all day. They actually open for 2 hours for people to purchase groceries. Blockade near…
Wake up America
Christians wake up! Many Americans are backing Palestine against Israel. The Bible says before Jesus returns not one nation will support Israel. Remember this all began between Jacob and Esau. Bible truth is before our eyes. The Guatemalan president gave a speech last night so now some of…
100s of blockades
The country is under lockdown in almost every state throughout Guatemala. Our kids were to start finals today but now the teachers will prepare the tests in their home and the students will take their tests on line. On the world scene we can see that Israel is…
Too much information
The airport closed for a time Saturday but Estella and her family changed their flight until 3am Sunday. The government announced a nation wide, shut-down-everything strike for Monday. That affects us because Monday mornings are when we receive our food for the week. Gas stations are out of…
Blockades continue
48 blockades are still all over the country. Our college students were able to have on-line classes. Hamas attacked Israel killing many and taking many hostages. Palestine is asking all enemies of Israel to join the fight in order to destroy Israel. Dottie began making the bows for…
New Dialysis Child
We were blessed with a 13 year old girl, Maria, for dialysis. Things have been so difficult for us since 2081 when the pandemic started. Last night I cried myself to sleep. The world has changed so much that sometimes it is hard to recognize the ministry and…
New boy
During the night the police brought us a little boy. He will live in Cometas. That makes our population 205. Dottie and I took a breakfast date. I have been so stressed that we just needed time alone. Deuteronomy 31:8 "It is the Lord who goes before you.…
Sadness
Brother Teddie who has been such a blessing to Casa built a wonderful ministry in Chimaltenango. It is operated by his daughter, Deidra, and son-in-law Soy. Saturday they were attacked by three men while sitting on their porch. Soy was shot to death. They leave 3 children. Please…
Road Block
I want to thank you are giving to the dialysis ministry. No amount is too little and I am believing that the $750,000 is coming. We were in a road block for 4 hours as people are protesting the government. I also am believing that new dorm parents…
Building race cars
The Huntsville team made Sunday a day of the Word, laughter, fun and exciting. The children were blown away. They even had a bouncy house. Estella and Mike F. began meeting with staff members and will do so all week. Olga and others had the quinceaneras try on…
Carlos
I preached on "Where does wisdom come from?" and then the Huntsville team had Bible time and games with the younger children. In the afternoon they had activities and special events for every dorm. At 6pm I shared my testimony. Carlos, who was raised here, came to tell…
Sue goes home
Kevin Duke arrived with a team from Huntsville, Alabama and Saturday they had an out reach in a village. As we begin this month of October I want to remind you that we need two couples to become dorm parents for at least 2 years and we need…
Our dentist
We have a container from the states and the police are demanding a ransom. It was boxes of building supplies for Tim Doud's team to redo bathrooms in a few weeks. It also had boxes of Christmas gifts also. Tim will need that building supplies in a few…
Generator
Sue's heart procedure was successful so praise God. Cindy's nephew is in very serious condition as the medical staff tries to save his leg. Eddie, raised at Casa, is married with one child and his niece lost her leg to cancer. Now Eddy has symptoms and is being…
Cindy’s nephew
Cindy Biddy's nephew's crushed leg is now infected so they need much prayer. I had one my most difficult days in years. One of the most used major roads in the city collapsed under the heavy weight of rain so much of the area around zone 13 is…
Mrs Sue
Sue had a relapse and is back in A-fib with a low blood pressure. They will stop her heart Wednesday morning and restart it so be praying. I decided that I will tell the story of our lives so we went to Guatemala City to buy a tape…
Torrential
We were going to have church last night but hail and a tremendous rain fall made it impossible to hear under that metal roof. Politically there is heavy talk of a coup to overthrow the newly elected president. We need house parents for Esperanza upstairs. These are the…
