A Triple Whammy

EFCA ReachGlobal personnel in Mexico have experienced a "triple whammy." The economic downturn has affected the work both personally and in the churches; fewer tourists and fewer orders from the US have caused job losses in Mexico. The violence in Mexico, covered by US media, has further discouraged tourism. And then came the swine flu. Though that crisis in Mexico is now past, all the short-term teams for the month of June have canceled their ministries due to one or the other of these reasons, further affecting multiple ministries in our churches in Mexico.

Pray that God will use these crises for His purposes, and that the church in Mexico will grow as they see His hand at work in the midst of each situation.
