Needed prayers:

Hello all,


There are many things going on which need your prayers:

1) My friend Samy and his wife have two babies (a 1 year old and a new born). Both of them are in the hospital and have been for a week. The 1 year old, Matías, is doing well. I saw him last night. He's a trooper, but he still needs your prayers. The new born was born months premature and has been battling for her life on and on since birth. She is in great need of our prayers. Please keep this entire family in your prayers.

2) There is a situation happening with the breakfast center. A man, Gerardo, we've trusted for years has stabbed us in the back. He oversees the drug rehab in Torreón which helps with the children's breakfast in Cardboard land. He is trying to push us out!

He is saying that he wants Templo Cristiano Libertad (the church of Stephen Tolman) out because the land is his. He went and bought the land behind our backs with the floor and walls already built for months; which were funded by the supporters of Templo Cristiano Libertad and me. It appears as if he's been planning this from day one, putting orders in his name with our money. Another company which works with the rehab center, Mano a Mano, wants to give him money, but they won't unless the Christians get out. He is claiming everything is his! 

Also, a man in the church, Eliseo, loaned his truck to the drug rehab center in Torreón to help with everything. Gerardo is also claiming that the truck is his. (Eliseo has the papers of the truck in his name, so it shouldn't be a legal problem getting it back.) As for the children's breakfast center, we have the documents needed, however some were ordered in his name. 
This is a very bad situation. Satan is trying to stop the message of Christ from being spread throughout this poor village and their children. We have worked in this Children's Breakfast for years, so this hurts as well.

Marcela Tolman is going with a few members of the church to talk with Gerardo today. Please keep this situation in your prayers. We don't want any bad to come from this. Please pray for God's Wisdom, Favor and Blessing to be with this entire ordeal. We need the Divine Intervention.

*Please continually praying for these needs throughout your day. Leave a comment to let us know that your thoughts and prayers are with us. Thank you and God Bless.
