We are winding down for the year with meetings in Harrington and Lewes, DE and Norfolk, VA. The Lord has been working in our meetings as we saw 13 accept Christ in a small church in Pennsylvania! After Thanksgiving we will be leading the Christmas Cantata at our church on December 14. Please pray that this will come together for His glory. We are both in good health and our vehicles are running well at the moment. Thank you so much for your prayers for us and our ministry!

Our trip to Mexico went very well as we saw many accept Christ! We were kept totally safe so praise the Lord for His protection. The capital city of Zacatecas is beautiful. The population total between Zacatecas and Guadalupe is about 250,000. Both missionary families were very gracious to us. The meals were so good and having a wifi connection was such a blessing. After returning from our trip we headed to Tucson, AZ to be at New Testament Baptist with Pastor J.C. Joiner. Drew joined us for a week and we had a blast with him. We then made our way to Springfield, CO for a Wednesday evening service and then on to Watertown, SD for a half week. Now we are in Wisconsin for five weeks with three of those weeks at Camp Chetek. Thanks again for the prayers and support!

We arrived in Mexico safely on Saturday and were greeted by two American missionaries who are working together here in Zacatecas/Guadalupe. Our accommodations are very nice with fast wifi which is not a necessity but is very helpful. Yesterday we were in two churches and saw three people accept Christ. Today we are going to pass out flyers and have another service tonight. We are very safe here and there is a good police presence around. We just don't go out at night. The services are at 5 pm so we don't have to drive in the dark. Thanks for praying!

Tomorrow morning we leave for a two week trip to Zacatecas, Mexico. Please pray the following: for the Lord to work through the preaching of His Word, for the music to minister to hearts, and for our health and safety. I'll send out updates when I can. Thanks!

It is great to have Heather back! She enjoyed a busy week with her family in Arkansas. I managed to have most everything clean and washed when she returned.
We had the black water valve shipped to the Camping World and it is in the shop. The hourly labor is $129 so we're hoping it takes less time to fix. Since our trailer is our home we are sitting in the truck in a parking lot working on what we can.
We started meetings yesterday at Faith Baptist Tabernacle in North Highlands, CA with Pastor Mike Rodgers and we go through Wednesday.

In the past two weeks God has given us wonderful ministry opportunities at Faith Baptist in Atascadero, CA and Calvary Baptist in Oroville, CA. Several were born again and great decisions were made. The fellowship has been sweet and we are really enjoying our time in CA. The past two weeks have been in rural CA and the springtime here has been gorgeous. We're looking forward to Allie and Aubrey joining us for the summer in less than two weeks!
We have next week off so I'm taking the trailer the Camping World to have our black water handle/valve fixed. It's in the shut position but the valve is frozen in the open position. Fortunately, we have an emergency valve on the end of our pipe so we can stop it from freely flowing out. :)
Heather is flying home for a week so we'd appreciate your prayers for her safety. Thanks for your prayers and support!

Last week went really fast at Liberty Baptist in San Jose, CA. We saw several accept Christ and the fellowship was sweet! The people were so kind to us and we enjoyed our time there. Now, we are at Manor Baptist in San Leandro, CA. It was nice having a short 35 mile drive Saturday. I could get used to that! We plan on going into San Fransisco to enjoy the city sometime this week. Continue praying for the Lord to work!

Last week we saw at least 10 accept Christ or get assurance of their faith! This week we are at Liberty Baptist Church in San Jose, CA and we have already seen 4 accept Christ as their Savior! The choir has done an excellent job thus far and we will also have an opportunity to minister in the school. Pray that the details regarding the next few months will materialize. We are still looking for somewhere to park in Los Angeles while we are in Mexico for two weeks. We have a lead in LA and we're praying it will work out.

Last week was very profitable as we ministered in both the church and school at Heritage Baptist in Antioch, CA. This week we are at Calvary Baptist in Marina, CA. It was 8-9 years ago that we were last here and God had blessed thus far with seeing several accept Christ as their Savior. We recently had our trailer brakes go out due to a malfunctioning brake caliber. Given that our brakes are hydraulic, we needed someone skilled enough to fix the problem. We found a mobile tech that did the job well and now I think I could do the job after watching him work. We replaced one wheel hub (rotor) and two calibers. I've been able to run on the beach this week which has been hard but enjoyable. Praise the Lord! :)

We just ended a half week of meetings at Harvest Hills Baptist Church in Yukon, OK. God was at work in both the church and school and we praise Him for that. The fellowship was sweet as we got to know the pastoral staff and church members in a deeper way. We even found our way onto the golf course and boy did the wind howl! Now I can better appreciate the lyrics to the main song in the musical, Oklahoma. :) Today we are departing for Albuquerque with a stop at Palo Duro Canyon along the way. We love the opportunities we are given to view God's marvelous creation!

Leaving Florida
Well, we are leaving the warmth oF Florida for the "natural state" of Arkansas. I believe we saw 13 professions of faith with several getting assurance while in Florida. PTL! Tomorrow we start a week at Liberty Baptist Church in Pine Bluff, AR. This is our first meeting in Arkansas since we started traveling and it may be Mike's first meeting in Arkansas as well. Pray that we will be used by God this week!
