This week....

This week both aspects of the ministry of Fishers of Men: Refuge Ranch and the EMMC's (Evangelistic Medical Mission Crusades), are hoppin'!

Victor and the volunteer team, including five volunteers from Iowa and our two eldest daughters, left on an Evangelistic Medical Mission Crusade on Monday to a small town in the state of Michoacan, near that state's capital of Morelia.

Refuge Ranch always ends up short-handed during crusades because half of the ranch staff go on crusade! Well, not this time!  The Lord sent a huge blessing in the form of the Current family who will be serving here for several weeks!

This Week With Fishers of Men...

On the Ranch...

The Current family, Danielle, Dyan, Darrell, Don and Don, starting their journey to Mexico from Indianapolis, IN last Saturday.

Don and his boys clearing rocks from the construction site of the new house so that Cirino, our mason, can mark the foundation.

Dyan and Danielle making new coupons for our TV watching system.

Caleb, Miguel, Don and Darrell repairing the road leading up to our water tank. (Stay tuned for the next issue of our Friday Fiesta newsletter to find out more!)

Don and Dyan seasoning chicken for dinner...for 25 people!

Ruth and her duct tape purse that Dyan and Danielle taught the girls how to make!  They also brought the really cool duct tape with which to make the purses!  The kids went through 17 rolls of duct tape in two days while crafting!

Leo, Josiah, Darrell and Miguel playing a board game.

On the EMMC...

Vero at her “desk” (aka the brown boxes) registering patients in the “waiting room” (aka the sidewalk).

Dr. Tom, from Iowa, and Dr. Gisela examining a patient....for free.

Getting free eyeglasses!

A BUNCH of dentists working all in a row! This picture really impressed me! (Remember...I'm (Julie) at home on the ranch while Victor and the team are on crusade, so they send these pictures to me.)

Dr. Bill in surgery.

Free haircuts!

And, then, the reason for all of the above...

Victor leading a local woman in prayer to accept Jesus Christ.

Each and every one of these patients, and all of the patients who receive medical care, dental care, surgical care, eyeglasses or a haircut, hear the Gospel message presented to them in an individual setting during their visit to the Crusade.

Thank you for your prayers and your giving that make weeks like this possible!  May God's Kingdom come here on earth....and may He use each of us to make it real for others!
