The Pomares November 2013

Dear Friends,
It is a pleasure to share with you what has been happening with us and the ministry in Mexico.
Recently we host the students involved in the movement in Puebla at home, Liz hadn't had the opportunity to meet many of them before because many were new to the ministry, so we invited them to eat pizza, and have a time to connect and learn.
It was a really nice time, Leah enjoyed seeing a lot of people in our house. ,In the beginning she was a little shy but at the end she didn’t want them to leave. For the students it was great to meet our kids and feeling like at home.
I had the opportunity to share with them the importance of keep following Christ and that knowing Him is amazing and that nothing we can have is compared with knowing Him.
I asked Israel, a first semester electronic engineering student, what is the thing that he most like about the movement in the three months he has been involved, and this is what he shared: “Is the genuine fellowship among the students involved, they take knowing God seriously, and they want others to know Him too, I´m making very good friends here.”
Here are some pictures about time in our house.

The first week of November the students and us had the opportunity of meeting Steve Douglas, Campus Crusade For Christ International president, he came for a conference named “Call to All” where he shared how God is moving in the world today, and how the local church can be involved in sharing the Gospel with the world, the students where pretty excited for listening Steve. Liz and Ian, our son, also had the opportunity to meet him in a private meeting with the Cru staff from Puebla.

Two weeks ago I had the opportunity to travel to Lima, Peru, to a work board about our area (Latin America and the Caribbean) where we worked together in how we can improve our efforts in sending and receiving missionary projects short and long term in our countries. It was a very productive and fun time.

In the home front, we thank you for your prayers, thank God, the kids are ok, something funny that happen last month was that we had a bed bugs infestation in our house, so we had to fumigate everything, wash clothes and take care of Leah that had a lot of bites.
On the other hand, we ask you to continue praying for Ian since he is struggling going to the bathroom alone and we need to help him with suppositories.

Thank you so much for your support such as praying and financially, it has been a financial uncertainty the last few months but we had seen God providing for us through you.
Prayer request:
That the students involved in the ministry keep sharing their faith and their desire to share Christ with their classmates is bigger.
That God continue giving us good health.
That God continue providing for our monthly needs.
