Canote E-Notes 07/23/13

Home Sweet Home

The Canote family is home, safe and sound.  It was a long trip and at times may have been a bit of an endurance test but we are none the worse for the wear.  PTL!  God is good and faithful to His promises.  

We prayed all week with our ministry teams that we would finish well with a mucho grande Kingdom harvest.  God heard our prayers, showed up big, and accomplished much in and through us. 

As usual, Satan didn’t want us representing the King in Ciudad Acuña, Mexico this last week and did toss a few fiery darts our way.  However, we had the King of Kings on our side...we were packin' heat!  The Gospel message of Jesus Christ shined and powered through and 152 new believers came to a saving knowledge of Jesus!  PTL and hallelujah!


To our ministry support team:  thank you, Thank You, and THANK YOU!  May God bless your socks off for your significant role in this Kingdom ministry!  God bless you for your prayers, your support, your friendship, and for holding the rope!  We can't do what we do without you.  We need you and thank God for you.

We were able to secure ministry dates for our next two trips to Acuña as follows:  

Dec. 29, 2013 - Jan. 4, 2014

AND

July 13, 2014 - July 19, 2014

We are super blessed and excited to already have teams lined up for both weeks.  HOWEVER, we certainly have plenty of room for more!  Please let us know if you are considering joining us on the field in the cross-cultural ministry effort.  We would love to tell you all about it.  There are options for how you might participate.  Shoot us some questions so we can help you make an informed decision.

Canote E-Notes 07/17/13

UPDATE:

All is well on the mission field this week in Acuña, Mexico.  God is good & blessing our socks off as we join Him in His ministry this week.  We have had the usual obstacles to deal with.  However, God has been faithful and is overcoming each and certainly with us as we power through.  Sometimes that means a white-knuckle grip holding fast to God's promises.  Please continue to pray for us.  We have a shortage of translators this week.  It has been pretty cool to see how God's Spirit can speak through us.  In spite of the fiery darts Satan may have tossed our way, we have still seen 90+ Salvation decisions already this week!  Woo hoo and PRAISE THE LORD!

Canote E-Notes 07/08/13

Mexico

It's the final countdown for blast off to Acuña, Mexico for a week of team ministry. We are down to less than 48 hours to get 1.2 million things done.  That's no hill for climbers... and praise the Lord we ARE climbers!  Besides that, as Christians, we're packin' heat on account of the Holy Spirit of the Creator of this big ole universe straight up resides within us!

Prayer Requests:


  • Guidance, direction, & sensitivity to the leading of God's Spirit
  • Strength and courage for a week of endurance. The heat will be a significant factor physically for all of us
  • Faith to follow God wherever and whenever He leads us
  • Open & receiving hearts in the people to whom we and our ministry teams will be ministering to


God bless you and thank you for your encouragement and prayers! 

We're counting on them!
