Swine Flu, Narcs, and The Economic Crisis in Mexico
Swine Flu in Mexico Thanks to everyone who has been commenting on the Swine Flu Epidemic in Chiapas, Mexico At first I thought the Mexican Government was just magnifying the situation on purpose. I didn't know of anyone who had gotten it. Then 3 of my personal friends got the virus. Thankfully they received medical treatments and were cured rather quickly. Narcs, Zetas and Drug Cartels in Mexico We've had a lot of visitors cancel their reservations with us because of the sickness and also because of the Narcs. I didn't think there was a bad problem with the Narc's in South Mexico. There is ...

Reflections on Easter 2009
Hello, Everyone! Greetings and Blessing in the Lord be unto you! Every Sunday, I purposely set aside some extra special time to spend with the Lord. I get the 3 translations of the Bible that I have (Amplified, NIV Scofield Reference Edition and the King James versions) and all the prayers that I have typed up and printed off. I also keep a printed copy of the visions given to me and the promises and scriptures that I have been guided to by the Holy Spirit. Part of my aggressive spiritual warfare, against the enemy of our soul, is to ...

Why Would This Tzeltal Indian Family Give Me a Wardrobe Worth More Than Their Entire Month’s Wages?
The Tzeltal Indians live about an hour and a half from us in Cancuc Pozo Chiapas. For a long time I have admired the bright colors of their clothing as we have ministered to them providing relevant teachings, evangelistic campaigns and now even a Bible School which started in February. On February 20th, we finished a full day of teaching and prepared for a nightly service in the village. The Pastor quietly pulled me aside and told me to go to a small wooden hut located outside of the church building. “A Family has something that they would like to give ...
No Water in San Cristobal DLC, Chiapas Mexico
Water is a Precious Commodity Could you imagine living life without water? We dont have to imagine what it is like to not have water since we've been without water for 5 days now.(since Thursday, March 5th). If you have water , you almost take it for granted. If there is no water you realize that it is a Precious commodity. Apart from drinking water which we have been buying in jugs you need water to help you in other areas of your life. Consider these problems we have encountered: We haven't been able to take a bath for days - Ok we have ...
