Influenza EpidemicApril 29th, 2009
Hello friends, family, and supporters,
I’m sure that you all are aware of the influenza epidemic here in Mexico.
From our local news, the state in which we live; Jalisco, remains free from the virus as of now. However, all of the schools nationwide are closed from 27 Apr until 6 May, next Wednesday. The Secretary of Health is also recommending: staying home, avoiding malls, movie theaters, clubs, etc. anywhere there are crowds of people. We are taking the advice and are hanging out at home, enjoying our own “snow days” since we no longer get those occasional free days.
We do ask that you keep us, our coworkers, our church community and the entire country of Mexico in your prayers as you seek the Lord. We serve an almighty God, and we know that He is in control. We pray that this situation can be used for His glory, as the body of Christ unites. We stand against the plans of the enemy to spread fear over the land and people of Mexico, and all nations with confirmed cases of the virus. Thank you for standing with us in this time of uncertainty. Remember, God remains in control, and He does hear our prayers.
In His service,
Lad, Aimee, Zane and Vanessa
