Prayer Requests from a pastor friend in Glenwood Springs

Please pray for Tomas and Luis' brother

This letter came from Juan Lopez, Pastor of Roca De Refugio in Glenwood Springs, CO

"Beloved brothers:

It is a blessing to be able to greet you in the name of Jesus, hoping that you are enjoying His blessings.

I write you to ask that you help us in prayer for the father of Tomas Cardenas. He is the brother who is in charge of the work in Grand Junction. His father is in the hospital and in very grave condition. Tomas needs to go to Nicaragua to visit him. So we ask that you pray that he will make a good decision. His father's name is Bernardo Cardenas.

Another matter is that we need to pray for the tragedy that has occurred in El Salvador. Many people have been left homeless and 125 people have died and many have disappeared in the flooding that has provoked mudslides. The story of brother Luis in Apulo is sad. When he heard that the mudslide was coming he grabbed his two children. He was hit by the current and let loose of the children but managed to catch his daughter but could not reach his son. He only heard him scream, "Papa, papa" each time farther away until he could not hear him anymore. The body of the child has not been found."
