“My soul glorifies the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God my Savior. . . for the Might One has done great things for me-holy is his name.” (Luke 1:47, 49)
“This is the fulfillment of a dream for me.” Those were the words of Pastor Milton Flores of Celaya, Mexico when he came to the United States to drop off his son, Milton, Jr., for his first year of Bible school at AFLBS in Minneapolis.
Pastor Milton Flores came to Minneapolis in the late 1980’s to study at AFLTS. He graduated four years later and returned to Mexico. He told me that during his time on the campus of the Bible School and seminary he was so impressed with the students at AFLBS that he began to hope and to pray that some dayGod would grant that he would be able to send his own children to study the Bible there. And now some 25 years later his first son is enrolled as a student and his dad is praising God for His goodness to him and for raising up many friends who have helped supply Milton’s needs through scholarships to the Bible school on his behalf.
These last 6 months have been filled with visits to
churches, camps, a youth convention and special
meetings in several locations. We’ve been very glad to be able to see many friends along the way and make some new ones as well.
