Greetings.

 

We are in San Antonio Mennonite Church. I believe that all the people from
Amor Viviente, Iglesia Menonita Casa del Alfarero and Houston Mennonite
Church who needed to evacuate did. There were a number of people from
Houston Mennonite Church and the Garifona church who stayed behind.  They
were not in the "danger" zones. We will continue to trust in God and pray
for their protection.   

 

At this time we do not need assistance. However, by Saturday morning we will
know more about what took place in the Houston area and we might need your
assistance. 

 

The San Antonio Mennonite Church could use volunteers to come and help us
with the 150 evacuees. Please, contact Hugo Saucedo. 

 

Thank you for your prayers.

I want to say to them, "I did everything I could. I used all the resources
