Isaiah 54:2

Hello again friends, blessings in Jesus' name! This is a quick update to let you all know what God is doing in our lives at the moment and where we've been working. Alongside our work in Mexico we've been working once again in the UK and in Spain. Our recent travels took us to a wonderful community church in Hampshire, where we were blessed to be able to share a message of God's heart for the lost as well as pray for the sick and those in need of a touch of God. In response to God's grace and power there were salvations and healings, of the body and the heart also. One man received prayer for a neck condition, he'd not been able to move his neck freely for years. He fell under the power of God and when he awoke he was beaming, full of peace and joy - God had healed him and he could move his neck for the first time in years! He was delighted and went his way rejoicing.

Later that evening we had the privilege to pray with the youth in that church, Mario spoke to them of boldness and confidence in the message of the cross - that we are not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God to salvation for everyone who believes, for the Jew first and also for the Greek. For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith to faith; as it is written, 'The just shall live by faith' (Rom. 1:16,17). We were humbled by the quantity of people, young and old, who demonstrated an earnest desire for more of God. This generation of passionate Christians is making waves in their community and are walking in their God-given authority through prayer and action. We are delighted to witness their passion and diligence, and look forward to seeing what God's going to do next!

Secondly, the Lord has opened some exciting new doors in cities in Spain. With a vision for every region, He is making a way for new centres of evangelism city by city, and tremendous favour in the body of Christ in facilitating this work with finance and workers. In July we will be taking a team out to Granada and working on the streets to share God's love and see the power of redemption at work. Please pray for us as we go, and we'll update you again soon! Be blessed, Sam

2 weeks of Mission in Chiapas (Mexico)

In the first 2 weeks of February we have seen how 200 people encountered the Lord Jesus Christ for the first time. It was wonderful how in Tuxtla, San Cristobal, Betania, Huixtla and Comitan among other places many people gave their lives to the Lord with rejoicing and tears. I would like to especially highlight our time in Comitan, a beautiful city on the border with Guatemala, for the church there has been working really hard in reaching out with the gospel of Christ. In an event that they beautifully organised at the city's theater titled "amor" (love in Spanish) I had the privilege to lead around 50 people to the Lord, many of them also came back for more the following day at the Sunday service. The church's pastor who organised the event is called Ismael, a good friend of mine. He and all his church have been such a blessing to me personally and to the whole ministry. At that event we also witnessed many miracles such as several deaf people who completely recovered their hearing.

Even though my stay in Chiapas was planned to be for 4 weeks, I was forced to come back as an emergency arised back in Europe. All things are now great, by the grace of God.

I would also like to especially mention my time in Tuxtla at the home of my sister in Christ, Chita, a real mother to us, who opened her house to the ministry and has blessed us greatly with her love, encouragement and indeed beautiful cooking!

Personally and as a ministry we're now entering in a new phase that promises more fruit and increase.

Please pray for us and do not hesitate to contact us should you wish to get involved in what we do. Our prayer list for this month is the following:

- We are employing a ministry coordinator in Mexico and we need indeed funds for it.
- The work in Mexico is very large, many doors are opened and we only want to go God's direction. Additionally our desire is to continue multiplying our gifts that the Word may prosper rapidly.
- We are now involved in Social Action work so larger amounts of funds are needed to finance all the different projects. Should you want to know about them, please do not hesitate to contact us.

That's all for now, and from Samantha and I peace and love from Jesus!!

Amen.
