Greetings from Paraguay!

            We are in currently in winter but it sure feels like summer here as we hit the 90’s everyday.  We are gearing up for a family outreach on children’s day, the 15th of this month.  Please pray that many families come and that they would be attracted to Jesus.



Join with us in praising God that we moved to Paraguay 1 year ago!  This year has been like no other.  It has been a lot harder than we thought to move to another country!  This is not for the faint of heart.  As a family we have been calling to mind all of the ways God has helped us this year and all of the answers to prayers we have seen.  These things are good for us to remember as our kids start a new school year and as we go into our 2nd year here. We are thankful for you and your partnership throughout the previous year!  We are thankful that together we are making the Gospel message accessible to the people of Paraguay.

We are asking God for another answer to our prayers.  We have been here for one year without being able to purchase a vehicle. Please join us in prayer as we ask God to provide for a used vehicle suitable for our family.  We have been searching for a used vehicle and have found one that we would like to purchase.  At this point we have about half of our needed funds to purchase a vehicle.  The total price is $18,000.  If you feel God could be leading you to give.



If you would like to give please  Go to http://www.cmalliance.org/ and click on the "Give" tab in the top right-hand of the website. You can donate securely through this link. You can also support us personally in the same way. Simply type "Saavedra" in the International Worker box to give to any of our ministry needs. Our current need is for our Vehicle fund. Thank you for supporting us!

Love,
Carlos and Lily
