God's providence
As most of you know, we visited family, friends and supporters during most of the month of January. During that time a lady called our Leon phone # twice asking for help. I couldn't understand her name or number on the answering machine, but I could tell she was desperate for help. Months (4 to be exact) went by and she called me again Friday night. I was at small group, but Barb was home with KC (sick) so she talked to the lady. Barb encouraged her to come to the prayer time on Wednesdays...she came to pray this morning. We talked some before prayer time and then she asked to speak with me afterwards. Barb, KC, the lady and I went to a back room to talk. It turns out her name is Connie and she is the SAME LADY that called us while we were in the states in January. Her 18 yr old daughter tried to commit suicide on Christmas day and her life was falling apart in January. She was telling a client (she owns her own salon) how terrible her life was. This client, whom I can't remember for the life of me (Lily), gave her MY CARD and told her to call me. Not only do I not know remember who "Lily" is, but Connie was very clear (and apparently the lady was clear with her as well) that Lily IS NOT A CHRISTIAN. How cool is that! We have "people in the world" publicizing that "the Church will listen and has answers!" Connie's son is 33 and has failing kidneys. His name is Gabriel. Her daughter's name is Fernanda. I told her that peace and answers are only found in Jesus and I promised her that I would pray and share their names with you! Please pray and don't forget this story! I know God has a purpose in all this!
Thanks for your interest in the Lord's work in Leon and our family!
