Latest news from Cordoba
October 2026
After the last 3 months of challenge with Cristina’s dad’s health, he is beginning to decline quite rapidly. He enjoyed visits from Joel and Esther, our children, and also from Cristina’s cousin last week, when we were able to get him out of the house a bit more, but this week his Kidneys seem to be failing and he is extremely weak and drowsy. The palliative care team will contact us again tomorrow but, after today’s visit and a blood test, if he doesn’t show any improvement, he will be admitted to hospital to the palliative wing until he goes to be with Jesus. Many of you will have experienced this stage in life, are facing it now or will face it soon, and understand the struggles.
As a result of the situation, we have decided to postpone the Story of God, the English gatherings in or house and the Video discussion series we were going to have, until things are a bit more stable. We continue to meet on Sundays with the believers and have started a series on Lessons from the Wilderness (from Exodus to Deuteronomy) and it has been encouraging that 2 of our friends, who have moved back to Cordoba, Zac and Sonia have been with us the last 2 Sundays to discover more about Jesus.
Christine continues with the languages exchange on Tuesdays and had 2 great conversations this week; the first about the difference between religion and choosing to follow Jesus and have a relationship with him and the second about how we need Jesus to rescue us because we can never impress God and be good enough to earn his favour….
Terry is meeting again with the Catholic men’s group, looking at 1 Thessalonians and also had some great opportunities to talk and teach about what it means to truly put our trust in Jesus and be transformed by God. We are grateful for these opportunities and others as we meet with individuals and couples on a more informal basis. There is a season for all things!
Please can you continue to pray for us, that God will continue to strengthen us and Peter and Sue in these emotionally and physically tiring times, that we will make the most of every opportunity to point people to Jesus and the hope with have in him that goes way beyond death and for wisdom to know when to start our other programmed meetings.
With love in Jesus,
Terry, Cristina, Peter and Sue
