This is a picture of Pastor Jesse at the top of the stairs to the left, speaking to people about Jesus in the town square of Villa Corona. The Mayor of the town, who is walking by in jeans & a white cowboy shirt, has given Jesse permission to do this every week at "Market Day". He is a Christian, & he & his family attend Jesse's Church. He & his family need lots of prayer, because he has been targeted by a very mean group who want him eliminated. They kidnapped him & his wife for 12 days to try to force him to sign documents that he didn't write, while their 6 children -ages 3 - 16 yrs. old were at home alone. They now are together & have "around the clock" military protection" for the entire family everywhere they go. (two guards are behind him in this picture). Please pray for this special family that we have known for several years, and that they would grow closer to our Mighty God who loves them.
Unfortunately, we are seeing more violence all over the world, and feel we are living in the last days before Jesus returns for His Own. As we are on our way home, we pray that all Christians everywhere, will reach out to those who need to hear the good news of Christ, and share your faith with them.
Thank all of you who have made this missions trip possible for us, and we have seen HIS perfect timing and many answers to prayer! "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge HIM, and HE will direct your paths." Prov. 3:5,6
Your Partners in Christ,
Peter & Carole Borgman
Our plans are to cross the border on Thursday, the 30th.
