Jacksons Leaving On Furlough


"Continue in prayer, and though the blessing tarry, it must come; in God's own time it must appear to you."
C. H. Spurgeon

In the midst of packing etc. we're busy saying all of our good-bys. Our bedroom echo's as I type. The house is just about empty. As I write people are picking up stuff, and buying what's left. We'll spend our last couple of nights in Mazatlan in a hotel before we go.

We had a wonderful time in el Rosario last weekend. I feared that because were not able to continue there that the brethren would cool down and the work would stall... oh ye of little faith. Spurgeon's right, "in God's own time it must appear to you," the work continues on and the brethren are exited at what God is doing. Brother Jose Ignacio is doing a great job at preaching, our sister Favian is teaching the children and even Pancho and Manuel are continuing to follow Jesus with joy.

Pray for pastor Guadalupe and his wife Emilia, they leave for Mexico city tonight, then fly to Canada on Wednesday for a couple of weeks of meetings. They said that this is a dream come true for them.

I spent the day with brother Ismael who's pastoring the church in Ceuta yesterday. He's doing a great job. We leave with great joy and a sense of accomplishment seeing him busy and work for Jesus. Pray for Gabriel who heard the Gospel while sitting on the church steps.

Lord willing we'll pull out of here Wednesday morning early. Thank you all for "continuing in prayer," the blessings have come, and we're sure they will come. Your fellow workers,

Darwin, Mary Ann and Gracie Jackson
