They are new every morning; great is Your faithfulness.” Lamentations 3:22-23 Dear Family and friends, Thank you so much to each of you who have continued with your huge Hearts for Elim through the years!

Dear Family and Friends, We are grateful for the different groups that have already come to help minister here at the mission (and also for the groups that will still be coming this summer!)

It is always a pleasure having them here and we are grateful for their hard work and being willing to do whatever is asked of them. Another group that also comes each year is an American group of women affiliated with the Military in…

We have already had several groups from across the border come and minister with us this summer whose hearts have wanted so much to be able to share with those less fortunate than them selves. We had a group of…

Dear loved ones, “Be of good courage, and He shall strengthen your heart”. Ps 27:14 It has not been long since our last letter, but some of you have been praying for the Vacation Bible School and the other summer ministries. Therefore we wanted to share some of the things that the Lord has been doing, so that we can give Him the deserved praise. Thank you very much to those who prayed with us for the VBS. We saw God’s hand on every aspect, and we thank those that have had a part in this, either through prayer, helping out, or provisioning in some way. Through the week the…
