Living The Gospel










Greetings from Paraguay! As many of you have been enjoying snow this winter we have been having months of 100 degree days. As you can imagine we are thankful that in this season (the opposite of yours) it is finally starting to cool down a bit.  Today we are projected to be in the 90’s.

A huge Thank You to those of you who have helped us purchase a vehicle for our family! You have given us a huge blessing and have put tools in our hands to minister with! We are so grateful!

The Paraguay field is walking through change. One of our current teammates is going on home assignment. This puts Carlos in the position as lead pastor at the church plant Mi Esperanza (My Hope). He assumes this new responsibility May 1st.  We have been ministering there along with two other families since we moved to Paraguay. Now it will be us and one other family. Please pray as we walk into this new area of responsibility, we want to love these people well, proclaim the gospel here, and disciple believers.

Please lift our family in prayer.
We are asking God’s protection from the enemy.
We have dealt with a lot of sickness here, please pray for our families health.
Pray that God would lead us and the church Mi Esperanza.
We praise God for answered prayers for a vehicle!
We praise God for a great outreach that happened last Saturday, we had around 200 people!

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 support us personally by simply typing "Saavedra" in the International Worker box to give to any of our ministry needs. Our current need is for our “work”.

Love,

Carlos & Lily
