Update  April

 

We have had another round of everyday challenges in what is proving to be a tough 12 months.

We are planning to be back in the UK in May and had booked flights for May 9th until June 3rd but we discovered that our passports run out soon and with the new ruling they won't be valid for travel. So we have applied for new passports, but Terry can't send his old passport off until he finishes the process of applying for a new Spanish identity card, as his wallet was recently stolen with all his cards including his driving license and ID card. Since Brexit, we need the identity card to travel back to Spain. 

Also, with the recent Storm Nelson, the heavy rains damaged our roof terrace in a few different places and we have water damage on a number of walls and ceilings in the first floor of the house, so we are waiting for the insurance company to send someone to assess the damage. 

How do you respond when there seems to be and endless stream of challenges? It is easy to take our eyes off of Jesus or to forget that He is in control and is using everything for his glory and to make us more like Jesus. Please pray for us to continue to rest in God in our tiredness and weakness. 

We have the last Story of God meeting this Friday (5th) and then an English evening in our house on Friday 12th. We are thinking of starting a new Story of God group in the autumn. Please join us in praying for wisdom as to who to invite and also for people from the present to put their trust firmly in Jesus. 

We hope to see many of you in May. Please pray that we will be able to see some key people during April to encourage them to trust in Jesus before coming back to the UK. 

Tomorrow Christine is meeting a woman called Pamela, who is a professional drummer and soon to marry a famous flamenco guitarist. Pamela has expressed interest in joining a group to study the Bible. We don't really know much else about her, but maybe God will open a door to reach more musicians with the message of Jesus, as we are yet to see any people from that group converted. Please pray! 
 
With love in Jesus,
Terry and Cristina.
