Swine Flu Information

I wrote the last post on the swine flu from a small town in Chipas Mexico.

A lot of you have contacted us and mentioned that you are praying for us. We appreciate you and your prayer support.

The government has announced that it will be providing supplies for health and precaution here in Mexico. However, so far we have not seen the existence of any products in the stores. Everyone is sold out.

The saying here in Mexico is “Manana” which means tomorrow. Tomorrow  can also mean a few days or even weeks.

Many people are scared to even leave their homes. We have a busy schedule and are not letting the power of the influenca effect us. Instead we have faith in the influence of the Power of the Jesus in our lives. OK, thats a little extreme but it s a neat play on words.  We are balanced and believe in Doctors and Medicine in addtion to the power of God and faith.

We are taking precautions such as vitamin C and Garlic and lots of water. There are some more recommendations and I received a comment on my other blog from a dear friend who published some very relevant articles at www.e-swastya.com.  (swastya means health). Sudeep was born in Indian but lives in Canada. I think you will find the article interesting since it includes some great home remedies.

Swine Flu Epidemic in Chiapas, Mexico

Just in case you’ve been following the news and are wondering about us.-

There is a big scare with the swine flu. All the schools are closed here where we live.. People are wearing face masks and all the stores are out of vitamin C.

We want to let you know that we are ok.

We have been traveling to many different churches this week with a musician from Chile.
Today we are in Juarez Chiapas starting a new Church using a concert to draw new people to the new work.

We are canceling the rest of the tour after today because the Mexican government has prohibited public meetings because of the epidemic..

Tomorrow we will go back to our house . Thursday we will be with the Tzeltal Indians with a another New Church plant.

Thanks for your prayers.
