Eduardo and Annette

Here is a photo of a birthday party at our house for fellow missionary Andy Clark (on the right with the Kojack haircut). Eduardo and Annette and their family came over to enjoy some "Tres Leche" cake (three milks cake). I love it!

We have become pretty good friends with Eduardo and their family; they live right across the street. They have 4 children; Sophie 12, Karen 9, Eduardo 7, and Daniel is a newborn and made his entrance about a month ago. (You can see the portable baby crib in the background.) They have spent time showing us around the city and various points of interest.

Please pray for Eduardo as his mother is terminially ill. He has been going to work every day and staying with her every night at the hospital. She is a diabetic and has a virus on her brain. Pastor Rafael Santana and I were able to go visit her recently. Pastor was able to read the 23rd Psalm with her and to talk with her about placing her trust only in God. She is only 57 and is understandably fighting feelings of bitterness about having her life cut short. We were able to pray with them and continue to pray that the Lord will pour out His grace on her.
