While US news anchors chatterred anxiously about oil-slickened coasts, thousands of Mexicans were loosing evertything they owned.
I recently received an email from Allen Johnson of Wings Bearing Precious Seed ministry. He had joined the PREACH team for a couple of weeks while I was in Africa, and his fluent Portuguese was an incredible asset in leading souls to Christ.
He writes:
Dear Friends,
I do not believe I have ever sent this type of email before but I feel compelled to do so. Pastor Raul Reyes in Monterrey, Mexico is a dear friend and a humble servant of God who has taken a stand for the word of God in Mexico.
Hurricane Alex brought much flooding to Monterrey last week. I was not even aware of it until I received some pictures from a church member (Pastor Reyes is not one to complain or ask for help). They were without drinking water for 8 days. Pastor Reyes’ house and the “Grace Bible Baptist Church” had several feet of muddy water which caused much damage. Their Christian school lost most of their curriculum and Pastor Reyes’ car was washed away and is a total loss.
There is no house or car insurance to speak of...Please pray for Pastor Reyes and their congregation as they “get back on their feet”. If you are led to help financially please send gifts to:
Wings BPS

Here are a couple of the photographs in the email:
