I was not born into a Christian family. I did have a family that loved me and took good care of me. Never the less they were unsaved. As a child I attended a few Vacation Bible Schools and a few Easter Services. At age 12, I moved to the country where our home church is. Our neighbors attended our home church. Through their influence I started attending our home church. I loved and enjoyed going to church. I made it my second home. At age 16, I realized I was a sinner bound for hell. I repented of my sins and accepted the Lord. That was on a Saturday, on Sunday I was baptized. Our home church, Cozaddale Baptist Temple, has been the only church I had ever known. I praise the Lord for my growing up years at Cozaddale. I have many precious memories. About 5 months after I got saved I met my husband. He was going to be a missionary. I was willing to do whatever the Lord would have me do. I Praise the Lord for my husband and our life we've had together. I wouldn't change a thing, it has been a good life.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Hebrews 13:5b .....I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
My favorite hymn is, "Constantly Abiding" Through different situations in my life, I know the Lord is Constantly Abiding with me.

Ministry Update- April 1st, 2009
Last week on Thursday we traveled out to Tucson to help a fellow Mexican missionary bring a van back in to Mexico. The motor in this van had blown some time ago but till now without help he had not been able to get it back to Mexico. With the use of the ability and "things" that God has given me we were able to help him out. This past Monday we then traveled on to the city of Caborca (about 140 kilometers west) to leave the van with his son to have the motor replaced. God granted us safety and success in helping him. We are still looking for a meeting place for the work of the ministry here in Magdalena. One of the possibilities is a house next to us that is not being used. As you can see from the photos - the house is not much. I was able to find out who owned the building and she came by today to talk to us. It contains two simple rooms but would be a convenient starting place. She wants considerable more rent than it is worth and I would really like to be given the opportunity to purchase it rather than rent. Please make this a matter of prayer with us.

Missions Conference-March 14th, 2009
Here are a few photos we took on our recent trip to Navojoa for the mission's conference at Iglesia Bautista Bet-el. I spoke on Saturday night out of Acts 14:26 on "What it Takes to Fulfill the Work of Missions".
The pictures are of people milling around during one of the breaks outside the church and the others are of the pastors and missionaries in attendance
