Giron February Deputation Update

And how will anyone go and tell them without being sent?… Rom 10:15 NLT

We praise the Lord because he allowed us to finish the first round of visits in the MAYM area. Despite the cold winter in which we had to drive to various cities through Kansas, Oklahoma, and Texas to get to churches, people, and groups that were kind enough to invite us to share, in each place we arrived, we were very blessed and felt the love of God through all the people who dedicated their valuable time to listen to us. We are especially so grateful for those who have made a new commitment to join our prayer and financial support team. “I now adopt you as children to pray for you; I will not leave you alone.” These were the beautiful words we received from a new friend that God gave us, Pastor Gary of Booker Friends Church, when he had just met us for the first time! Words that impacted and encouraged us. Divine encounters like this and beautiful words of encouragement and prayers from many people in MAYM make it worth it to continue forward with this challenge.

Please pray for our next round of visits, which will be at Indiana Yearly Meeting from March 3-21. We are excited, as this is the first time we have the opportunity to visit churches, individuals, and groups in this region. May God open many doors and new opportunities for us to share.

Mexico YM Central

The last week of February, we will be traveling to Aguascalientes, Mexico, to participate in sessions of the Mexico Yearly Meeting Central. As always, we will have very intentional times to continue promoting the advancement of VM32 and the sending of more workers to the field. Please pray to see more people saying, “Here I am, Lord, send us” and that we may serve in the process of sending many more to the mission field.

Daniel, Bolivia Future Missionary

Last year, we met a 29-year-old young man, Daniel, from Bolivia. Daniel is a young leader passionate about proclaiming the Gospel and mobilizing other young people to fulfill the Great Commission. This year in January, Daniel was commissioned as the president of the Youth Society at their Yearly Meeting level, and it was a joy and privilege to be present in Bolivia at this commission event of many leaders and pastors.

Daniel has asked us to be his mentors as he explores the calling of being a future missionary and seeking God’s direction to one day go out into the field to another nation outside of his country. What a privilege for a young man to seek you out to be at his side as he seeks to discern his desire to serve the Lord in the Great Commission on a global level. Please pray for this young man and his desire to be sent in the future to preach the Gospel to those who have not heard. And pray for us for wisdom as we help Daniel and others like him, whom God is raising up and calling.

In Obedience to Him,

Edwin and Maria Giron
