EXCMPT FROM A LETTER

Everything is going well down here,

sometime

this

will

probably

help

us here.

Our

4/4

coEtinuecl from

the

front

page

the

news letter. V f e

indeed wish to thank

the New

Taze-

well church for

lending their minister to the El Mante

work

for a brief

period.

V / o of

the

iidvisory

Board

are

s

thankful that

congregations

realize the

importance

of

a close

working

fellowship

between the

supporting

congregations

and

the mission

field jigain many thanks.

The

cost

of

the building thus

far is

something

like

00.00.

Our Missionaries to Mexico hope to locate closer

to

the

church. They have

purchased

a

nice

big lot 75

by 150

over

in

one

of

the suburbs.

They

hope to

get

enough

money together

to

build

a

cheap

mud

hut for

the

time being at least and move there. They want to be

saving on

rent and

that money can be used

to

good advan

tage.

The church building is spacious. It will be able

to serve many years because of its splendid construct

ion.

Even though

it

is

in use there

is

much work

still

to

be

done. V / e thank you for

your

prayers

your inter

est

and

your

financial contributions.

The Lo3?d-blej

you.

If you were the Elletts

you

would

be

in an

area

where

it was dry and

100

degrees

on March 12th. But

the greatest concern would be the millions

without a

knowledge of the

real

Power of the

Gospel of Jesus.

The task

is

great

but Damon

and Leonila are willing

to

give it their best. IVhy?
