\nSomeone asked the question recently: “What do you wish for?” Some answered “money”, others “relationships”, and others “good health”. The fact is- you can have it all, but if you lack good health, everything else can be difficult to enjoy. With that said, our health is good, we feel good, and Phyllis seems to look better as we grow older, at least to me. Praise the Lord.<\/p>\nUPDATES AND NEEDS<\/strong>
\nBerea Project is moving along. They started hauling dirt to build up the foundation.
\nI had a conversation with the pastor, and he told his leadership team and me, “Our facilities are full and we cannot accommodate the people that are coming; we need to build now.” What a wonderful problem to have. The Antioch Grant is doing what it was designed to do. Thanks to the Antioch Grant, we are able to move this project along. Our goal is to have the building inhabitable by the end of the year.<\/p>\nDIESEL GENERATOR \u00a0<\/strong>
\nThe Berea Project was in need of a diesel generator. Using one will cut the cost of the electric bill considerably during the hot season. Because of the heat, air conditioning is a must. One unit came up for sale, and it was hardly used. It was valued between $30,000 and $40,000. Negotiations began. The owner said $20,000, then dropped it down to $15,000, then said he would take $10,000 (I thought, “JUMP ON IT”). However, the owner changed his mind and told us he wanted zero – nada, nothing, free – he donated it. I told the pastor that was a good price. Free is hard to beat. Praise the Lord!<\/p>\nSCHOOLS OF MINISTRY<\/strong>
\nWe saw the need a while ago to help educate our ministers. Many will tell you that a great awakening is taking place in Mexico and to some degree that is correct. That awakening produces a special need. Inspiration can take a person just so far, after that one needs a foundation to build upon. A faulty foundation, if not corrected, will be repeated over and over again. The Bible tells us to build upon a solid foundation. This is why we focus on Schools of Ministry. We are working on three levels. One of those levels, as many already know, is Holmes Bible College.<\/p>\nSAN FELIPE UPDATE<\/strong>
\nIn our last newsletter, we mentioned the work in San Felipe. We have a School of Ministry in that city and a growing church that has doubled over the last few months. They recently moved into a new, larger building to accommodate the growth. “Planting a seed or reaping a harvest”. Great when both happen at the same time.<\/p>\nCHURCH GROWTH, NINETY-NINE BAPTIZED<\/strong>
\nIn January, Eliezer IPHC baptized 99 new believers. We have an ongoing School of Ministry there. This church also started two new works this year. One of the works is a facing problem… THEY NEED A BIGGER BUILDING! If you would like to help, read a little further.<\/p>\nGROUPS<\/strong>
\nAll the areas that we travel with groups are safe. We have a group coming in September to help with the Berea Project (#55503P). We could use some help with this project and two others we have going on. One is the Manhaniam Project (#55014P). We could use funds and groups to help! This work is on the outskirts of Mexicali. We have $5,000 raised for the roof. We need another $3,000 to cover the total cost. Please note that no funds are used for labor; all funds are for building materials only.
\nThe third project is located in San Quintin. The area is mostly agriculture. The average wage is about $8.00 a day. We have a building that needs a new roof because the current one is sagging and needs replacement. The building is used for a feeding program and children’s church.
\nIf a church or group would like to help, please contact me and we will provide more information. We invite you to come see the Mexico you don’t know about but would enjoy!<\/p>\nPHYL’S WORLD<\/strong>
\nDear Friends and Partners,
\nGreetings in the lovely name of Jesus.
\nI just returned from a Women’s Conference in the mountains. It was a blessing to see how God blessed those who attended. It was a fruitful time and the fellowship was great. New converts were won for Christ.
\nIn the month of March, Ron and I celebrated our 44th anniversary. I thank God for putting this wonderful man in my life. I am also thankful for everyone who partners with us.
\nWe love and appreciate each of you, and we are thankful for your prayers and support.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

SALUDOS<\/strong> Alguien hizo la pregunta recientemente<\/strong> : \"\u00bfQu\u00e9 deseas?\" Algunos respondieron \"dinero\", otros \"relaciones\", y otros \"buena salud\". El hecho es que usted puede tenerlo todo, pero si le falta buena salud, todo lo dem\u00e1s puede ser dif\u00edcil de disfrutar. Dicho esto, nuestra salud es buena, nos sentimos bien, y Phyllis parece verse mejor a medida que envejecemos, al menos para m\u00ed. Alabado sea el Se\u00f1or. ACTUALIZACIONES Y<\/strong> NECESIDADES El Proyecto Berea avanza. Empezaron a tirar la tierra para construir la fundaci\u00f3n. Tuve una conversaci\u00f3n con el pastor, y \u00e9l dijo a su equipo de liderazgo ya m\u00ed: \"Nuestras instalaciones est\u00e1n llenas y no podemos acomodar a las personas que est\u00e1n llegando, necesitamos construir ahora\". \u00a1Qu\u00e9 maravilloso problema tener. El Antioch Grant est\u00e1 haciendo lo que fue dise\u00f1ado para hacer. Gracias a la subvenci\u00f3n de Antioch, podemos mover este proyecto. Nuestro objetivo es que el edificio sea habitable para finales de a\u00f1o. GENERADOR DIESEL<\/strong> El Proyecto Berea necesitaba un generador diesel. Usando uno se reducir\u00e1 el costo de la factura de electricidad considerablemente durante la temporada de calor. Debido al calor, el aire acondicionado es una necesidad. Una unidad sali\u00f3 a la venta, y apenas se utiliz\u00f3. Se valor\u00f3 entre $ 30.000 y $ 40.000. Las negociaciones comenzaron. El propietario dijo 20.000 d\u00f3lares, luego baj\u00f3 a 15.000 d\u00f3lares, y luego dijo que iba a tomar 10.000 d\u00f3lares (pens\u00e9, \"JUMP ON IT\"). Sin embargo, el due\u00f1o cambi\u00f3 su mente y nos dijo que quer\u00eda nada - nada, nada, gratis - don\u00f3. Le dije al pastor que era un buen precio. Libre es dif\u00edcil de superar. \u00a1Alabado sea el Se\u00f1or! ESCUELAS DE<\/strong> MINISTERIO Vimos la necesidad hace un tiempo de ayudar a educar a nuestros ministros. Muchos le dir\u00e1n que un gran despertar est\u00e1 ocurriendo en M\u00e9xico y en cierto grado que es correcto. Ese despertar produce una necesidad especial. La inspiraci\u00f3n puede tomar a una persona hasta ahora, despu\u00e9s de que uno necesita una base para construir sobre. Una fundaci\u00f3n defectuosa, si no se corrige, se repetir\u00e1 una y otra vez. La Biblia nos dice que construyamos sobre una base s\u00f3lida. Por eso nos enfocamos en las Escuelas de Ministerio. Estamos trabajando en tres niveles. Uno de esos niveles, como muchos ya lo saben, es Holmes Bible College. ACTUALIZACI\u00d3N DE SAN FELIPE<\/strong> En nuestro \u00faltimo bolet\u00edn, mencionamos el trabajo en San Felipe. Tenemos una Escuela de Ministerio en esa ciudad y una iglesia en crecimiento que se ha duplicado en los \u00faltimos meses. Recientemente se mudaron a un nuevo y m\u00e1s grande edificio para acomodar el crecimiento. \"Plantar una semilla o cosechar una cosecha\". Genial cuando ambos suceden al mismo tiempo. CRECIMIENTO DE LA IGLESIA, NOVENTA Y NUEVE BAPTIZADOS<\/strong> En enero, Eliezer IPHC bautiz\u00f3 a 99 nuevos creyentes. Tenemos all\u00ed una Escuela de Ministerio. Esta iglesia tambi\u00e9n inici\u00f3 dos nuevas obras este a\u00f1o. Una de las obras es un problema que enfrenta ... \u00a1NECESITAN UN EDIFICIO M\u00c1S GRANDE! Si desea ayudar, lea un poco m\u00e1s. GRUPOS<\/strong> Todas las \u00e1reas que viajamos con grupos son seguras. Tenemos un grupo que viene en septiembre para ayudar con el Proyecto Berea (# 55503P). Podr\u00edamos usar algo de ayuda con este proyecto y otros dos que tenemos en marcha. Uno es el Proyecto Manhaniam (# 55014P). Podr\u00edamos usar fondos y grupos para ayudar! Este trabajo se encuentra en las afueras de Mexicali. Tenemos $ 5,000 levantados para el techo. Necesitamos otros $ 3,000 para cubrir el costo total. Tenga en cuenta que no se utilizan fondos para la mano de obra; Todos los fondos son para materiales de construcci\u00f3n solamente. El tercer proyecto se encuentra en San Quintin. El \u00e1rea es sobre todo la agricultura. El salario promedio es de alrededor de $ 8.00 al d\u00eda. Tenemos un edificio que necesita un nuevo techo porque el actual est\u00e1 cayendo y necesita ser reemplazado. El edificio se utiliza para un programa de alimentaci\u00f3n y la iglesia de los ni\u00f1os. Si una iglesia o grupo quisiera ayudar, por favor p\u00f3ngase en contacto conmigo y le proporcionaremos m\u00e1s informaci\u00f3n. Le invitamos a venir a ver el M\u00e9xico que no conoce pero que disfrutar! EL MUNDO DE PHYL<\/strong> Queridos Amigos y Socios, Saludos en el hermoso nombre de Jes\u00fas. Acabo de regresar de una Conferencia de Mujeres en las monta\u00f1as. Fue una bendici\u00f3n ver c\u00f3mo Dios bendijo a los que asistieron. Fue un tiempo fruct\u00edfero y la comuni\u00f3n fue grande. Nuevos conversos fueron ganados por Cristo. En el mes de marzo, Ron y yo celebramos nuestro 44 aniversario. Doy gracias a Dios por poner a este hombre maravilloso en mi vida. Tambi\u00e9n estoy agradecido por todos los que se asocian con nosotros. Amamos y apreciamos a cada uno de ustedes, y estamos agradecidos por sus oraciones y apoyo.","author_name":"","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/05\/Baptisms-ROY.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb62Ar-ow","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1520","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1520"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1520\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1521"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1520"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1520"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1520"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
