I want to share a note from a woman in Monterrey, Mexico.
. . . . .
Three years ago, my husband died, and I have clung to the Lord with all the strength I could muster. A year and a half later, you came to our city and spoke to the church about missions. God used your messages to put a sincere desire in me to take a more active role in the Great Commission. I began to watch your daily videos on Facebook and God has taught me, through them, how I need to reach out to those around me.
I began to pray for my neighbors. Soon there was an opportunity to reach out to a lady in need, then a young orphan girl, then to a nearby family. The girl and I meet daily to learn from the Bible, and she now attend church with my daughters and I each week.
Financially, things have been tough since I was widowed. I have a small pension from my husband’s employment and I found a seasonal job with a minimal salary, but I am learning that God is my shepherd, and I shall not want. Interestingly enough, once I began reaching out to the needy, so many things changed. My heart was revived, as I began to feel a real love for the needy. And when I pray for God to provide for these hurting folks, He sends funds my way to be able to help them!
I spent last night taking care of a sick girl, so I am tired this morning, but the extreme joy He gives me greatly outdoes my tiredness. My heart is full of awe, for the privilege of representing Jesus to those in my community!
All this, since you came to my city and spoke at my church.
I am ready to do more and give more as He continues to call me and guide me. I simply desire to live for His glory. I share this with you because all this that I am now experiencing, is fruit from the seeds that you planted.

You are part of this! Your love for the Gospel helps us to keep moving forward here!
