Irapuato Church

Armando went to Mexico City on a business trip and was able to extend the trip to go back and visit the church in Acambaro as well as Irapuato. He flew to Mexico City, bringing with him some computer equipment for a business associate. Normally, they would have paid much attention to that, scrutinizing everything to see if they can collect taxes on something. However, what they made a big deal and thoroughly questioned him about were the evangelism booklets, pamphlets, and especially the Bible...apparently, the X-ray machine could not recognize the Bible, but then again we all know it's not just any ordinary book! They also leafed through the gospel booklets (which were in Spanish) and Armando offered to give them one, but they declined. Well, maybe next time...

He arrived by bus in Irapuato Friday and on Saturday he will be giving an evangelism seminar there from an organization based in Dallas called EvanTell. He was informed a few days ago that there will be over 50 people there, WAY more people than Armando expected. Please pray for open and receptive hearts and minds. Check back to see how the conference went...

I can't wait to see how the conference goes! It's awesome to read how God is using Armando, thank for writing this blog so we can pray specifically for Armando, his safety and the people he meets.
