Dan and Marcela Giles

Danny and Mercela 

Wow! So much has happened in the last month and a half, I don't know where to even start.  Shortly after my return from the USA, the Schierkolks left for the USA with yours truly left in charge of the church and our son Roberto Emanuel arrived a few days afterward! Yes, on May 21 at 10:30 p.m. central time, our little son made it into this world.  We are so happy!  He is healthy and strong.  7 lbs. and 20 inches long and looks just like his daddy!

The church is doing very well.  This last Sunday (24th) there was an attendance of almost 30 people for the spanish service!  Usually we have around 10 or 12.  We just started a new study so please pray that it is well received.  So far so good. 

Also please pray for the youth group.  Since about a month ago, I had put the youth meetings on hold until our son arrived and it has been kinda hard for a few of the youth.  Lord-willing this Saturday or next we might start again depending how things are at home with Marcela and the kids.

As always, we thank you all and are very grateful for all the support and prayers that are offered on our behalf.  As long as the Lord wills, we will be serving Him here in Jerez with the ministry through your support.
