Migrant children receive the Word of God

Dear Friends,

September so far has been an eventful month. Over the Labor Day weekend my son in law, Joe, and I made a fast trip to Del Rio.  While there, I had the opportunity to sow six cases of Spanish Bibles into the Comunidad Cristiana Maná Church in Cd. Acuña.  This church has access into the juvenile migration camp run by the Mexican government.

FYI-Every day trains leave the Guatemala/Mexico border for the several-day journey to the USA border. These children ride precariously on the top of the cars.  The majority are of Central American origin.  It’s called “el tren de la muerte” (the train of death).  Another name is “La Bestia” (The Beast).  Many die from the train ride itself, climbing aboard while moving, falling off the cars, etc.  Many are assaulted, robbed, raped…

At the camp Comunidad Cristiana Maná is allowed to teach the children and tend to their spiritual and other needs during the time it takes to process them before sending them back to their country of origin.

Who knows what God will do with the seed sown into these young lives? “BUT GOD”

As for me, therapy is making my arm stronger each day. I am building memories with my great grandson in a way not possible before.

Circumstances caused my arm to be stationary for longer than normal. As a result my elbow lacks about 15 degrees or so from being able to straighten out completely. I request your prayers of agreement for full and complete restoration of the arm.

I appreciate so very much the prayers of my many friends holding me up before the Throne of Grace. I am looking forward to getting back into the full swing of things as soon as possible.

God Bless you richly,

Bob Bell
