Gilberto Is Getting Ready For The Hurrican

Gilberto called from Cancun yesterday to ask if I was still flying to Cancun today. After a couple laughs, we agreed it was best to reschedule the trip. As a matter of fact, Gilberto was busy packing and arranging his emergency supplies to help him weather the incoming storm. I will be staying touch with Gilberto to see how he is doing.

A group in Cancun that I have made the acquaintance of just sent out a request for help if he hurricane does indeed hit there. I just received their e-news. Here is a part of that email:

"As most of you have heard we have another hurricane (Dean) coming this way. The projected path is either Cancun or Cozumel Mexico. Please be praying that Dean will pass through an area that is not populated.

That would have to be a miracle because of where it is headed.

I would ask that you join us in prayer and if you can send an offering to help with food and materials. Where ever it hits we will be helping with food and building materials just as we did with hurricane Wilma two years ago. It is a horrible thing but with your help we can turn this around and use it for an outreach. We will be able to share the gospel with everyone that receives the help."
