October Update

One afternoon while Alison was working she came into a patient’s room, and noticed that she had been crying. Alison asked her what was wrong and she said that her back was hurting. She gave her some pain medicine, and then told her that she knew someone that could take care of her pain inside and out. Alison asked if she could pray with the patient and prayed a prayer of healing and salvation with her. A new light shone is her eyes after that encounter…

We pray that you all are having a wonerful fall. We want to let you know how thankful we are for your prayers and support and that although we are still on track to head out into mission field by the first part of the year, we are still thanking God for every opportunity here as well. Nathan preached at the Charlotte Rescue Mission last Sunday and ministered to men that suffer from drug and alchohol addictions. Several men made their way to the altar and asked God to transform their lives completely. We pray for opportunities every day to serve God here, and continue to prepare us for carrying out the Great Commission overseas. We are continuing to meet with prospective partners weekly, and covet your prayers and encouragement. God bless you all!

Prayer Requests
• More people to join us as partners in spreading the gospel
• An outpouring of the Holy Spirit through the nations
• Opportunities to spread the Word of God daily
• Complete healing for Nathan’s foot (stress fracture)

Guatemala Fact

Guatemala has more than 75% of its national population living at or below the poverty line. This is most severe for rural and indigenous populations.

Thank you!

We are so grateful for your prayerful, faithful and generous partnership! Love, Nathan, Alison, Ethan and Bethany
