Prayer Update (November 6)

Dear Praying friends,

Thank you for your prayers this week. I think I have just about all of the addresses again. Thank you so much to those of you who helped with that. Our computer has been really acting up, and that is the reason that we are late again with our update.

PRAYER REQUESTS:

• Faithful men.
• Marcos and Morgan are going to have several opportunities in December to preach. Pray for them to grow through this.
• The lady, Lilliana, who is not Nichol's wife, but is the father of their four-year-old little girl, doesn't seem to be very thrilled about coming to church. She has accompanied him to church for the last three months--and now seems angry about coming. The ladies of the church are trying to reach out to her. Please pray that she would feel the love of Christ in our midst, and that she would be saved. (Praise: Nichol is really growing and changing! This may be one reason for the resentment felt by Lilliana.)

PRAISES:

• Sra. Silvia and Sra. Teresa both were back today after several weeks away with the death of their mother. Please pray for Teresa to continue to grow and for Silvia to be saved.
• Elsa came today!!!! (Prayer request: Alondra (her sister) and Miguel (Alondra's boyfriend) did not. It certainly seems as though Miguel and Alondra do not want to obey the Lord. They both need to be saved. Miguel is very manipulating and wants Alondra to live with him even though they are not married. Miguel is VERY angry with us for sharing what the Lord says on this subject. Elsa is very confused with all the upheaval in her life. Now that Alondra is going back to Miguel, she cannot pay for her apartment and needs to move again. We were able to spend about four hours with Elsa Sunday afternoon and evening. Pray for her to be faithful in her Christian walk.)
• Vanessa had not been to our Saturday Bible study for about two months. She came back yesterday. She had been living in sin, but we are thankful that she has returned. Pray that she will be saved.
• Sr. Hector seems to be having his eyes open to false teaching from a former church! Two weeks ago he did not come back because he was mad at some things Mike needed to say to him from God's Word. Yet, the Lord began working on him---and he has returned both last week and this week. Last week in Sunday school he publically apologized for being very angry and said that he felt the Lord was showing him the truth, but that it is hard to accept.
• Our three oldest children have been witnessing to the sister of our neighbor who came up here to visit but she just happens to live by our church. She has been reading her Bible, but says that she doesn't understand it. Pray that the Sra. Berna will come and be saved.

Thank you so much for praying,

In Christ, Mike, Faith, Mikey, Cristiana, Carissa, Matthew, and Cherith Goldfuss
