Ross Family July 2017 News

Dear Friends,

Greetings from rainy Oaxaca. In the month of June we dealt with a lot of rain and clouds in Oaxaca. The landscape around us has changed from brown to green. We needed the rain but we dealt with three named tropical storms so we had lots of rain. The local reservoirs went from critically low to full in a couple of weeks.

As the weather permits we continue serving several mountain communities. We received a request to help open an old airstrip that hasn’t been used for many years called San Miguel. We will make a trip overland to inspect the airstrip next week and then follow up with a flight afterward. Please pray for wisdom and safety in the whole process. Pray for open doors to share the gospel in this Mixteco indigenous community.

Please continue to pray for airstrip permits, a hangar for maintenance, and paperwork on our third airplane. There has been some positive progress on a couple of these issues so please keep praying.

We have been reminded several times lately of our responsibility to pray to the Lord of the Harvest to send workers into the harvest. Will you pray with us for more workers for Oaxaca? We especially need pilots.

Blessings,

Mike & Joan
