Pastor Jose from Rey de reyes Lutheran church in Nogales, Sonora (the only other Lutheran church in Nogales), was pretty inspired by the turnout for our Christmas service in Mascareñas that he has decided to "go all out" for the churches anniversary on the 6th of February. He has also committed to coming out to Mascareñas on Sunday afternoons to try to open the church. So far he has come twice, but no one from the congregation (or, what used to be the congregation) has come. So, he has joined us in one of the home churches. Pray for this effort of his.
Last Sunday we had the biggest turnout ever for our Sunday school. We had twenty three kids, and they were just great. Again, the stress seems to weigh upon Alfonso, my fellow worker. This time he got upset at one little boy while I was sharing the Bible story, and before I could stop him he actually smacked he smacked him on the head. I stopped and told him that the little guy is autistic and really can't help it. I really believe God has to have another helper, we just need to pray him out. Please join me in praying for another worker.
