Foundation For His Ministry: Newsletter Oct 30 . 2014



 
Foundation for His Ministry Weekly Praise & Prayer Newsletter


Praise Reports:   
.   Allen and Claudette Bechtel are friends of the ministry who spend time in the winter at the Oaxaca Mission. They recently sent pictures of the goats they raised and a craft fair they held at their church to help raise funds for the construction of the school in Oaxaca. We thank God for friends like these who think of creative ways to help support His Ministry.

.   Aubrey Beauchamp picked up hundreds of donated afghan squares from the San Clemente office and spent over a year using them to make beautiful afghans that are nicely packaged and labeled. This was certainly a labor of love.

.   Thank you so much to everyone who did a review of Foundation For His Ministry on greatnonprofits.org. It was so encouraging and uplifting to read the beautiful things written and hear stories of how lives have been changed through FFHM. We are so blessed to work with some remarkable people. Today is the last day you can write a review in order for us to be considered for their list of top nonprofits in 2014. www.greatnonprofits.org/reviews/foundation-for-his-ministry

Prayer Requests:
. The students at our home for university students in Tijuana are entering their final month of classes for this semester. They have asked us to join them in praying they will be able to finish with excellence and that they will be safe as they travel back and forth from the home to their universities. Please also pray for Gina and Jorge Gamboa who are their houseparents. Pray that God sustains them and gives them wisdom in their relationships with the students. 

TJ House students 
. We are hoping to start Phase II of the renovation of the TJ House in January and are still short on the needed funds for this project. Please join us in praying that God will supply what we need.

.  Tomorrow is our annual board meeting in Laguna Woods, California. Mario Cordoba, the Baja Administrator, and Jill Adams, the Oaxaca Administrator have traveled up from Mexico for this meeting. Dr. John Lucas, our Canadian Director, will also be attending. Everyone is looking forward to being together and for dreaming about the future. Please pray for unity, vision and wisdom for everyone involved.

. The prison across the street from our Oaxaca Mission has now more than tripled in size after recent construction and will now house almost all of the prisoners in the state of Oaxaca. This creates an urgent need to finish the wall surrounding the Mission for added security. The east side of the wall still needs to be completed and it will cost approximately $19,000 dollars to do this. Please pray our Mission continues to be safe. And pray for Enrique, the prison ministry supervisor, as his ministry will soon expand.
