Dear Friends and Family,

Crystal and I have been learning so much about missions, things that we have never thought about before. There are also a lot of things we have been able to share to them about new ideas of how to do things. The one thing we have learned that has made the most impact is the fact that team work and prayer is vital to the success of a mission. We have also learned that deputation is not such a scary thing after all. It all depends on how much preparation and work you put into it. We are really excited about our upcoming deputation schedule and are anxious to start.
This past weekend I had the opportunity to share our testimony and passion to a local church here in Georgia. It is always a blessing to be able to talk about Mexico and allow people to pray for you. I truly believe that if we just get people to realize the power and prayer and the impact they can have on the people of Mexico through their prayers, we will have no problem raising the support we need to accomplish what we want to accomplish. We need God to supply our needs, not churches.
There are several things that you can specifically pray for us right now. We really need to fill our fall deputation schedule. Our first meeting is in New York, and we don’t have another meeting for a month after that. Pray that we are able to get more meetings in New York, Connecticut, and Pennsylvania. We really don’t want to have to drive back and forth between the East Coast and Kansas. Please desperately pray that the Lord will fill our schedule.
Other needs we have are: stamps, and restaurant gift cards.
Thank you all for your faithful prayers and support





For the sake of the Call,



Kevin & Crystal Elworth
