.Early this morning we left for Guatemala, Dr. Kari Everett, her son
Keegan, Carmen Bojorquez, Jack Kelley, Pastor Larry & Peggy Hayward and
I are toting bags of meds in hopes to reach out to several villages with
the Love of Christ. Your prayers are vital and greatly appreciated. We
are scheduled to return next Saturday when we will look forward to
sharing the fruit of your prayers and support.

 

Blessings

Dear Praying Friends,
 
We are about to enter our annual calendar distribution season.  We ask you to pray that the calendars will be well received, that they will provide good opportunities to share the Gospel, and that they will help many Mixtec people to become better readers of their own language.
 
This year's calendar has our translation of Psalm 121:7-8:
 
 

Chi maa Jito’o Dios kuu ia tava’a ña

 

Because it is the Lord God who keeps you

     nuu ndi’i jakue’e.

 

     from all harm.

Maa ya kuu ia tava’a ña jin ni.

 

He is the one who keeps you.

Chi maa Jito’o Dios kuu ia jito jini ña

 

Because it is the Lord God who watches over you

     ndee nuu kee ni ve’e ni

 

     from the time you leave your house

vi ndee nuu ndajiokuiin ni,

 

until you return,

     ndee vitna vi nikuii nikani.

 

     now and forever and ever.

 
 
Although my computer died last month, we praise God that we were able to buy an almost new one to replace it from missionaries leaving Mexico.  We are grateful for the help we received from our computer department to retrieve all of my data and then get set up with our programs and the special characters we need. 
 
We also praise God that our visas were renewed for another year, and that the entire process went very smoothly.  The immigration department now demands more documents than in the past, but when we come into the office with all the requirements, the visas are processed efficiently and only require one return visit to be fingerprinted and to sign for the new visas.
 
Earlier this month, our Mixtec cotranslator Ray was released from his responsibilities on the land commission, and we praise God that Ray is now available to work with us again on translation.  However, between our trips to Oaxaca to get computer help and our visas, and extra calls to duty for Ray, we have not yet worked together.  Instead, we completed the recording of Acts with two young men, Manny and Frank, and I am just about finished editing the recording.  Laura has completed another edit of Volume Two:  How We Write Northern Tlaxiaco Mixtec, which next goes to our Spanish editing department for their review.
 
Thank you so much for your prayers for us and for the Mixtec people!  During these weeks leading up to Thanksgiving Day, may we all have hearts full of praise.  We look foward to spending Thanksgiving weekend with about eighty of our coworkers at a camp retreat some four hours from our home.
