Carlos came again to one of our house churches, and he didn't even say anything about the chainsaw. I must admit that I suspected he only came the first time to give a pitch for the chainsaw. But he brought his own Bible, and after the meeting, Jose and Chui said that he has really changed after spending six months in the Phoenix prison. Now I remember hearing about him, his wife Alma used to be a member of the church and asked us to pray for her husband in prison, which we did.

We only had six kids this week in Sundays school in Mascareñas. We had stiff competition from a "piñata" (birthday party).

We are planning our Christmas service in Buenos Aires for the 19th. Alfonso and I are trying to organise one in Mascareñas for the 26th.

Gracie's been home for a couple of days with a head cold/ear infection. Cesar is working hard trying to get his grades up. Melina is gaining weight.


Thank you all for your prayers, your fellow worker Darwin.
