Adam and Karen DePaolis Prayer Letter: Answered Prayers
We want to take a moment to give you an update about what we have been up to these last two months of August and September. We started out at the beginning of August on the West Coast. We spent our last Sunday in California with River City Baptist Church in Sacramento, California, before driving 32 hours straight through to Chicago, Illinois—definitely not something that I would recommend. While in the Midwest, we had the chance to visit three churches, one of which was the Marion Avenue Baptist Church in Washington, Iowa. They invited us for their Missions Conference, along with eight other families. It was probably one of the most encouraging meetings that we have had to this point. From the moment that we arrived, we could feel their passion for missions and their love for the missionaries. We left the conference felling loved and extremely encouraged.
After leaving the Midwest, we headed south to Arkansas, where we had a few meetings before returning here to Pennsylvania, which is where we started from back in January. We had another Missions Conference in Arkansas, where we were also very well taken care of. In Jonesboro, Arkansas, we had the chance to visit Iglesia Bautista Salvos Por Gracia, the church of a friend of mine from college. The church there has a mission church that they started at a sweet potato farm. I was given the opportunity to preach the Gospel to a group of about 25 migrant men who have come up from Mexico to work in the fields, planting and harvesting the crops. It was humbling to hear their stories. Many come from rural parts of Mexico where there are few Gospel-preaching churches.
We have now come full circle back to Pennsylvania where we started out. We thank God for His protection over us during these last nine months. We have traveled over 20,000 miles and seen much of the country. Thank you all, our faithful supporters, for your prayers as well. Your prayers for us have been evident; they are something that we do not take for granted.
We reached two big milestones these past few months. As you know, one of our prayer requests that we have mentioned in several of our prayer letters has been for a vehicle. Thanks to your prayers and support, we have been able to set enough money aside so that we can buy a vehicle when we get back to Mexico. The second is that we have officially reached 50% of our support goal. None of this would have been possible without our financial and prayer partners. Thank you once again. We are humbled by your generosity.

PS. A special thank you to the Patch Club Kids at Sylvania Hills Baptist Church in Rochester, Pennsylvania, for the love offering that you sent us. We love you and are praying for you.[/fusion_text][/fusion_builder_column][/fusion_builder_row][/fusion_builder_container]
