Dear Friends,

People are calling ORH about Mexico Earthquake.  ORH has sent $1000.00 to the church mentioned in the report sent by David Shumate, MGMI missions, in Phoenix, AZ.

Please read David’s report.

     “Jan,  Thank you so much for the help of ORH with the team going to Mexico City.

     The church sending the team is: Evangelical Baptist Church, 2925 West Polk Street

Phoenix, AZ 85009.

     The church is a fundamental Baptist church that was founded by the father of Dr. Dick Mercado in 1930. It is our home church and is partners with MGMI in the Hispanic and Latin American work. The Pastor's name is Steve Rubio. If he has cell phone service in Mexico City, he can be reached at 602-291-2497

     The church in Mexico City is:   Iglesia Bíblica Bautista Antioquía (Antioch Bible Baptist Church),  Calle Nezahualcóyotl 51, Col. Centro, Centro, 06000 Ciudad de México, CDMX, Mexico, Latitude and Longitude: 19 degrees 25' 33" N   99 degrees 08' 23" W, Website: http://ibbafi.blogspot.com/.  God bless you and your vital leadership at this time.  Dave Shumate, 602-516-8497.

     Pastor Steve Rubio of the Evangelical Baptist Church in Phoenix, Arizona (a bi-lingual church) writes:  On early Thursday morning our team of 17 members of the Evangelical

Baptist Church a Phoenix Arizona left for Mexico City to work with Antioch Baptist Church

and its pastor, Victor Santamaria. Thanks to God's providence, we already had a team prepared to go and help with their 20th anniversary evangelistic conferences over the weekend. After the devastating earthquake, we prayerfully decided to go ahead with the trip and use it to help the church minister in the aftermath of the quake.

     Even before we left Phoenix, the Antioch Baptist Church had already sent supplies t

o an area south of Mexico City, near Cuernavaca, that has received little help so far. Praise the Lord, He has made available at least one bus to transport volunteers and supplies to the area of need.

     Thank you so much for your prayer and support for this effort to show the love of Christ and share the salvation of Christ in this tragic time.”

Pray; ORH must have funds to help, when the team returns with a true report of what is happening in Mexico City.
