Thank you for
your prayers for
me and the
people here!!!
12:30 a.m. this
past Monday
morning I was
awaken by a
knock at the
door. We have
had unusually
cold weather for
this time of the
year for a week
so “Brit” was
very cold as she
apologized for
waking me up to
ask for a ride
home. She was
crying, who
knows for how
long. Her
boyfriend,
father of her
two children,
was killed in a
drunken driving
accident in
August. Also
wanting a ride
home was her
brother “Bro”
and friend “Bri”
both having
bikes. All
three were drunk
as they piled
into the truck.
“Brit” asked if
there was any
work I would
like for them to
do to pay me
back but I said
I would just
like to talk
with them about
the Lord some
time. They
wanted me to do
it right then.
I did start to
speak when the
questions began
to fly faster
than one could
possibly answer
them!! I’m not
new at this so
it was no
surprise to be
challenged and
hear objections
but what was a
bit surprising
was “Brit’s”
determination to
focus on her
question to the
point of telling
the other two to
be quiet. Her
friend was
starting to get
contentious
about what
“Brit” should
believe while
sat in front of
her home so I
suggested “Brit”
let them out so
we could talk
peaceably.
“Brit” asked to
be picked up for
church this
Sunday then her
brother
requested the
same. The
Jehovah
Witnesses have
been coming
around a lot as
well as the
Mormons but she
doesn’t want to
go to their
churches. Her
brother has gone
a number of
times. They are
traditional
Navajo in their
up bringing so
they are quite
confused. One
of the questions
I often get is,
“Why are there
so many
different
churches and
denominations?”
People often
feel they need
to go to church
and do good
things to get to
God. I need
great
sensitivity to
the Lord’s
leading in every
way. Sarah and
I did go to
visit “Brit”
yesterday to
follow up on
her. She still
wants to be
picked up for
church but was
not comfortable
asking questions
at that time as
her mother was
nearby in their
small home.
Sarah is out of
work now except
for some small
tasks I have for
her to do. I
can’t pay a
whole lot but at
least it is
something and I
do need the
help!! She is
in need of
prayer covering
as she is
struggling
sometimes more
than others.
She is doing
little projects
at home that she
has wanted to do
for a long time.
J
Unemployment is
paying $240.00 a
week. She is
worried about
how she’s going
to make it.
Thank you for
praying for
her!!!!!
“A” and “Clar”
haven’t come for
Bible study for
over a month now
and most of that
time “A” has not
been to church
due to being
sick and other
reasons. His
friend has not
started the
Bible study with
him yet but I
hope that starts
soon. In a
phone call with
them this
morning they
said they have a
place in
Gallup to
rent and are
hoping to move
in next week.
It has been like
January here the
past few days
with temps
around 12
degrees last
night. They
really need a
warmer place
with running
water.
I have enjoyed
working with “J”
and his Anglo
girlfriend “E”
with the horses
and am praying
for an open door
to talk with
both of them
about the Lord.
I did get to
talk with “J”
one day. He
said he has not
received the
Lord but would
like to hear
more. I keep
inviting them to
church and
making comments
about the Lord
while we work
with the horses.

The three
teenage siblings
who usually work
for me on
Saturdays have
said they would
be interested in
coming to
church. They do
not know the
Lord yet.
I truly need the
Lord’s guidance
and help every
day. I
absolutely
cannot make it
without Him for
I am over my
head in many
ways. I am very
thankful for
each of you who
are led to pray
for me in this
work!!! I
really do need
your prayers!!!
The gal that
AIMI accepted
back in January,
Julia, to come
and help some
here is still
trying to raise
her support.
Thank you for
praying for
her!!!
