School News
La Noticia de la Escuela
A couple who has worked with our Bible Institute for over 25 years has a daughter, Susanna, attending Hyles-Anderson College this year. She and some of her friends came down over their Spring Break. I appreciate that they took a day of their vacation to help out in our Christian school.
(You see that I hi-jacked a few of their pictures.)
Mexico traditionally observes a two-week Spring-Break. At Mt Hebron Christian Academy, we are going to try a split - week with the end of one and the beginning of the other, with Easter in the middle. We will see how this works for our families, and adjust next year if needed. Our 2016 Spring Break will be March 24-29.
I will not publish a blog on the 29th, but will get some Easter pictures to post on April 5.

La Noticia de la Iglesia
The new ministries are off to a great start and many existing ministries recieved a "boost." There is a general air of excitement about serving the Lord in whichever ministry one is involved. Over the next two Sundays, (including EASTER) I am going to try to get some pictures of our children's SS departments.

Brother Francisco Aguirre (Hno. Paco), missionary to the Jews of Monterrey, has been teaching the adult SS classes about using OT verses regarding the Messaiah and salvation. During his presentations, he stated that out of every 1,000 persons of Jewish faith with whom he speaks, only 3 will listen to the plan of salvation. He stressed that it is only by remaining focused on the fact that God calls us only to testify to others; it is the Holy Spirit's job, not ours to convert them; every person has a free will.
All the soulwinning clubs were encouraged to minister in this area of the city over these two weeks. This Friday, our ladies group visited in this area. A few accepted the literature printed with only OT references. The 12 ladies in our group saw 6 souls saved here. Though not converted from Judaism, these are still people for whom Christ died.

Update on Caleb
Thank you for your prayers for Caleb. He came home from the hospital last week and his skin graft is healing nicely. Karla and Esdras are back in school, working hard to catch up on the work they missed.

El Idioma
Almost finished with Unit 3 of Rosetta Stone!! This is one of my goals over Spring Break. PTL!
Only one more unit on the first disc! Jessica continues to help me with conjugating verbs and learning my pronouns. She is a great blessing to me. I recently asked someone to help me say in Spanish "on the car" instead of "in the car." Tommy, whom I did not even realise was listening, answered, "sobre del carro." So apparantly, I am progressing more slowly than the 4-year olds.
