Many Thanks.

At the end of this year, 2007, we want to thank each and everyone of you for your faithful encouragement, prayers and support. May God, by his grace, richly bless you!

Also, we want to thank the Gutierrez Brothers and Luis Mellado for the permission they have given us to use their music. Many, many inmates who we minister to are singing their music, daily. It is music with a message and God is using His messages to reach Latinos here in Wisconsin.

This past week we showed a DVD from the Gutierrez Brothers, with great Latino Christian salsa music and a great message. During one of the songs, one of our men, who has told us that he will die in prison because of the crime he committed, turned to me (Carl) and said; "WHEN I LEAVE PRISON, I want to start a band like that and I want you, Carlos, to be the preacher." I wondered if I heard him right, because he has never had the hope that one day he would leave prison. But, yes, I heard him correctly.

We PRAISE God for what HE is doing!

From the Bible!

We've mentioned this verse before: First Corinthians 14 says, "What then shall we say, brothers? When you come together, everyone has a hymn, or a word of instruction . . . All of these must be done for the strengthening of the church."

Once again it happened today; we played some songs from a CD, one gave a testimony, another read a verse, another made a comment on the verse, a couple sang songs, and this repeated it self again till we ran out of time.

We just praise God for all He is doing in our Monday Bible Study. God IS being honored in the lives of these men. Praise God with us, would you? And please pray for those who still do not want to fully commit.
