July 30,2008 - Mission Report

Hi Everyone,

I have just returned from Mexico where we have established some new friendships. We pray that God will give the increase as we strive to plant the seeds that He has so graciously gave us.

My last day there I was discussing with one of the Pastors that God has given us a message to deliver. That being that Jesus Christ is the Savior and that He died for our sins and He rose again the third day and ascended on High at the right hand of God. That message was to be delivered by the method given to us. His Holy Word and we must not deviate from this method or we will see our ministry destroyed.

We must deliver this message by His means and that is in the power of the Holy Spirit. Without the empowerment of the Holy Spirit we are of no effect. Give God the glory! We must preach this truth in love and teach with all patience. I also was explaining to him that we are saved by His Sovereign Grace only and that grace will open our eyes to His Holy Word that will bring about saving faith in Jesus Christ for God's glory.

I done all this in Spanish. An uneducated man like myself being used by our Holy God. Go figure. Just goes to show you that He is all powerful.

I also visited with Tom & Julie Riggle and was able to give them some more material to give out. They are like an extension of our ministry. They go into Mexico often and distribute material that we were able to provide them because of your faithful giving that was laid upon your heart by God. Pastor Arturo has been busy. He loves to study and has been helping me meet others that will be able to join in on the battle against bad theology and spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ. Let us all strive to preach and teach truth.

Pastor Sanchez and his brother Savie have grown so much spiritually. We have fallen in love with these men and are so thankful to God for the increase that He has given us in their ministry. Keep us in your prayers and we thank you for your financial support. Give God the glory! Gary & Patty Lankford
