Pray for the November Cuba Mission Team…



We are excited to tell you that God continues to bless!



Thanks so much for your prayers and support.



Several months back, we were told that Cuban children would be on break from school the week before our trip.


We were praying for ways to work with them after school.  Praise the Lord, last week, we received an email letting us know that the Cuban government changed the break for students.   We have learned that students will be on recess the week we are in Cuba!

God has provided a way for us to work with the students.

Another huge blessing is that all ten members of our team have been granted Cuban Religious Entry Visas!

We received the visa copies via email.

Usually, we do not have copies until the week we are traveling.  There have been times that we received the visa copies just days before departure!

The West Palm Beach Cuba Mission Trip members met on Saturday.

We gathered the socks, undies, school supplies, beanie babies, clothes, shoes, medicines, food and other resources together and started packing the duffle bags. We have a lot to do before the trip.

Please pray for the November Cuba Mission Trip Team: Barbara Moore, Beverly, Vanderpool, Jim Reid, Judy Ratzlaff, Mary Daunhauer, Pam Newsome, Steven Hansen, Tim Henry, Tom Spencer, and Virginia Hansen.

Praise the Lord! Danke, Grazie, Merci, Gracias, THANKS...

October 7, 2010

We have seen God's hand in many areas over these last two weeks!

Our travel agent negotiated with the airline company and, as a result, we received a discount on our airline tickets!  This time last year, we paid $200 per person more for our tickets. 

We are thanking God for his provision.

Please continue to pray that God will guide us as we prepare for the November 6-13, 2010 mission trip.

Last week, our friend, Ana, returned from Cuba after a week's stay. She blessed us so by taking El Rancho Vaquero---Cowboy Ranch--Vacation Bible School information to Cuba.  She connected with the pastor's wife from McCall Baptist Church, and gave her the information. We are thrilled that our contacts are now able to review and study the VBS program before we arrive. They are sending emails several times a week asking questions and letting us know that they are praying and preparing for our arrival.

We are thankful for the donations of school supplies and backpacks!  We had enough materials to make 25 grocery bags of supplies for the groups we work with in Cuba. 

Thanks to many of you who participated in this campaign.

The donations of new socks and undies for our trip are coming in... There is still time to collect these items for our trip.  Share the need with your friends and family members and see if they want to get in on this opportunity to help the children in Cuba. 

Please pray that our Cuban Religious Entry Visas will be granted soon and without any problems. Usually, we do not receive confirmation until a few days before the trip...

On Saturday, October 23, we will begin packing the duffle bags with the supplies and resources we are taking to Cuba.  More details will follow later...

Know that we are so thankful that we get to go on mission to Cuba. Feel free to contact me if you have questions...Have a great week..
