Upcoming in San Pedro

This week we have two events happening in Templo Cristiano Libertad. On Friday evening we are holding our first ever women's conference, which we are hoping will become an annual or biannual event. The theme is (and I cannot, for the life of me, memorize it....) "Mujeres: Saetas en manos de Dios" which, translated, means, "Women: Arrows in the Hand of God".

The second event is on Saturday, and it is a city-wide youth service, which happens every two months or so, and this time it's TCL's turn to host. Please keep these two events in prayer, asking God for good attendance and that many lives will be touched.

Also, in July Marcos Witt will be giving a concert in Tepic, and Elisa will be opening for him (here's a link to the Facebook event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/454888911270493/); something else to be in prayer for!

Baptisms

We've had several baptisms in the past month or so, and here are some pictures (which I finally figured out how to get off my phone....sigh...). They are all young people who have come to the church in the past year.

May in San Pedro

In Mexico, the month of May is full of "days": Children's Day, Mothers' Day (May 10), Teachers' Day, the anniversary of the Battle of Puebla (May 5).....which means a lot of school holidays. Last week we celebrated the accomplishments of our children in a special Thursday service, where each class shared what they had learned in the past quarter, sang, and several graduated to a new class. Last week El Calor played a 2nd Division tournament (Copa Santos) and won 4th place. On Monday at 7:30 our short-term weekly rehab meetings will begin. We are also planning a women's conference for May 31. Please be in prayer for these ministries and stay tuned for more news from San Pedro!
