On the way to the Mx. border, we had TWO blowouts!! We knew it was more than a regular tire gone flat, because they were both torn to pieces.  So, we limped through both borders, going 15mph with only one transom tire on the left side of the RV for about 40 miles until we got to the Welcome Center in Laredo, Tx. for the night. The next morning, the man parked next to us came over to see if he could help. He & his wife were MISSIONARIES!  He climbed under our camper & saw that the rear axle was cracked & was pushing the tires into a metal piece which tore the two tires up.  He prayed with us that God would send us just the right help we needed & had to leave. Then Peter unhooked the trailer, & drove the truck into town to ask for someone who could weld, & fix the trailer.  "Mario" answered the call, came to us in his welding truck, & said we had bigger troubles, because all this made the trailer out of alignment, & we needed a flat bed tow truck to bring it to his shop, where he could fix it, but it would take a few days. As Peter & I were discussing Where we could spend several nights with our dogs, Mario invited us to stay at HIS house! I immediately said YES, we called for the tow & by the next day, we had the trailer in his shop, found out that they were both Christians, went to Church with them on Sunday (a fun experience), ate with them & shared both theirs & our life stories. While we were there, His wife told me that one year ago, she prayed that God would send some friends to visit her, because sometimes she gets lonely when her husband works so many hours at his shop (right next to their house), and she works all week. She said that when Mario called her to make sure he could bring us to their home, she KNEW God had answered her prayer, and gave him a happy YES!!   ISN'T OUR GOD GREAT?!!!

     We have so much to thank God for!  We love all our friends & family who have supported us in so many ways, and ask that you would pray for those who heard God's Word, and made decisions to follow Jesus.  We will keep in touch to let you know the next chapter of our lives as we serve the King of Kings & Lord of Lords!  Thank you, and may God bless you & your families.

                                           Your Partners in Christ,
                                            Peter & Carole Borgman

Dear Carole and Peter,
I must have lost your prayer letter for 2018 trip. All I have is a small handwritten note but it doesn't say when you are leaving. When are you going? I would like to send a small financial gift before we leave for 6 weeks.

I trust you had a blessed Christmas and wish you a Happy New Year!

Love,
Diane
