God has been good to us. His faithfulness has not limits. The Bible says "The Lord makes firm the steps of the one who delights in Him; though he may stumble, he will not fall, for the Lord upholds him with His hand." Psalm 37:23-24 God has been busy opening doors for the ministry. All around us I have been seeing God giving us grace and His anointing to do His will. The ministry in Mexico has been growing. Right now we have two church building projects, one in Juarez Mexico (across the border from El Paso TX) and one in Zacatecas, Mexico (ten hours south of Juarez). We are also helping to support missionaries and pastors with their families, making it possible for them to focus in the ministry. We also are sending Bible literature which include tracts and Bibles for new believers. A major component of the ministry are the teams that are constantly traveling to Mexico and these teams have been a huge blessing to the host churches receiving them. The Slavic churches being the main sender of these missionaries. Recently the Lord has opened another major area for this ministry. It is to the country of Honduras. I started going as part of a team from Family Life Community Church in Federal Way and through two trips last year (March & November) and the trip coming up on August 1-10 of this year God has been connecting us to many churches and ministries in Honduras. Our vision in ECEA is to work as an evangelistic and missionary association across denominational and non-denominational churches and ministries. Our goal since we started in the year 2000 has been and still is to reach the lost for our Lord Jesus and to be a blessing to other like minded ministries (please see our vision statement). In Honduras we will be working with other churches to help with resources, such as providing food to very poor communities, bringing medicines and medical teams, helping with church building projects, evangelistic outreaches with local churches and possibly helping with orphanages and bringing teams from churches to help and be a blessing. Please pray for us. We cannot do this work alone. This is for all of us as followers of Christ. I will keep you updated with both the Mexico and Honduras work. If you or your church can come it would be a great blessing. If you can't come please help and send those who can. Thank you for your prayers and financial support "As long as it is day, we must do the works of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work." John 9:4 Sincerely, Ildefonso Arguelles
