Ross June 2017 Special Prayer Request
Dear Friends,
We would appreciate your prayers. There has not been any gasoline available for our airplanes for over two weeks and we were told yesterday that it could easily be another two weeks. Bottom line is that someone in the government agency that handles all the aviation gasoline in Mexico needs to authorize a shipment of gasoline to Oaxaca. Please pray that a decision will be made in a timely manner.
Blessings,
Mike & Joan

Ross Family April 2017 Ministry Update
Dear Parkside Friends,
Thank you, thank you, thank you! We so appreciate your faithful support and prayers on our behalf. We truly could not continue the work here in Oaxaca, Mexico without fellow Christians like you.
Please pray for safety as Mike and Amos cover the flight responsibilities here. We are drawing to the end of the driest "dry season" Oaxaca has experienced in 50 years. This means lots of extra smoke and dust to interfere with visibility.
