Goldfuss update

Dear Praying Partners,
 
Prayer requests:
1.  Blanca--she is having a terrible time with rheumatic arthritis both in her hand (which she cannot move at all) and her knee.  Pray for the correct medication.
2.  Mario and Noemi-- Last year, when we were not in Mexico, vicious neighbors beat up Noemi and her 11 year old boy to frighten them so that they would leave their little piece of land and home---so that these same neighbors could have the property.  Noemi's arm was broken during the whole ordeal.  Now she asks prayer as these neighbors are suing her saying that she beat up two ladies from their home??????????  She goes before the judge today.
3.  Senora Maria---She is now able to come to church!  The swelling in her legs is getting better.  She asks prayer for her grandson who was beaten up badly one night after going to a nightclub.  Please pray for his salvation and healing.
4.  Nicolas y Lilliana--need prayer for their son Miguel--12 years old.  He is very rebellious and is causing problems at school.  Pray for his salvation as he does not want to have anything to do with the Lord.
5.  Silvia--needs prayer in dealing with her adult son who is on drugs--salvation.
6.  Ruben and Heidi--as they are still in Phoenix, AZ.  Heidi has been diagnosed with altitude sickness.  It appears that they will not be able to come back to Mexico City because of the altitude.  Pray for wisdom, and decisions.  Ruben will be coming back in a few weeks to get their things.  Please pray especially for our church as they love them so much.  This will be very difficult for many. 
 
Praises:
1.  Erasmo--is fine now after falling 3 stories off of his roof while he was trying to fix his roof from leaking.  He landed in an unoccupied property next door on some rocks.  He is very bruised but no bones are broken.  This is the man that recently had several fingers cut off while working.  He still needed one final surgery, but the fall opened up the sutures from the first surgery.  We praise the Lord that he is still with us, but ask prayer for healing.
2.  America and Jose--are planning to get married and he has been in church the last 2 weeks.
3.  Gabriel and Lilliana--The mother of the baby that they are planning to adopt has contacted them again.  Please pray for the Lord's will regarding the adoption.
4.  Itza--Some of you might remember him from over 7 years ago.  He was a very faithful young person who left the things of the Lord when he went to the army.  He is seeking the Lord again and has be attending for three weeks now!  Please pray for a true conversion.
5.  We are having a baptismal service on May 27th with 6 canidates!  Mike went to rent a brand new swimming pool that just opened up very close to the church.  When he met the owner, he recognized him as the husband of a friend of Faith's ---that she met doing the kids sports activities.  The owner is letting the church borrow the pool for free!  Our church people were thrilled with this provision!  
 
Thank you so much for your prayers!
Mike, Faith, Mikey, Cristiana, Carissa, Matthew, Cherith, and Caralyn Goldfuss
