Dear Friends,
“And without faith it is impossible to please Him, for whoever would draw near to God
must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him.”
Hebrews 11:6
Feliz our Quimixto connection, and Rosie
Linda and the Kindergarten class where Sandra always
helped serve lunches.
After school program where our Paradise Church serves
This is a verse we have been seeking to ‘live out’ each day these past few months. For the first time in seven years, we were financially unable to begin our school lunch program. Despite the disappointment, we have seen the issue as an opportunity to evaluate our time in Mexico and to press in to the Lord, praying for His daily direction.
We have been able to support our local church in various ways due to some new free time. I preached during the month of September and first week of October while our Pastor was out of town. I have also led and assisted with their feeding program for children in a small town near the city dump. The weather is hot and humid, the grill hotter, and after flipping 140 ham and cheese sandwiches, I was drenched. The program feeds 125+ kids and parents twice a week. We still feel our call is here and we are available for any undertaking to which the Lord opens the door.

I have spoken to some of our donors, and they feel this is a season to trust the Lord to provide for Sandra and me. Hopefully, by the first of the year, some of the finances will be restored. THANK YOU for keeping us in your prayers; and for those who give, we ask you to please continue.
Paradise Church provides the food and volunteers to
serve lunch.
Life is a challenge for each of us, but our call is to stay focused on Jesus. HE is our SOURCE in all things.
Love and blessings,
Randy and Sandra Barr
