The Messiah Rt.

Well this week was our second week back in the bus ministry and it was great, We had 12 kids ride on the van and it was great. Though our driver didn't show up we still took off and picked up them kids. We had 5 new kids and they had so much fun, We all learned the Pepsi Cola song and as I was driving I would honk, it was so much fun. I forgot how much joy we have seeing these kids having fun on the van. This Sunday some some of our church people got excited about the bus ministry that this sat we will have some new helpers to visit. One day we hope to buy a second van and start My old Rt. the Redeemer Rt. The only thing missing will be my old driver Big Juan, or as some in South Texas Called Him PAPPI CHULO. LOL. Keep praying for us,

What a Ride

We had a good turn out this morning, Had one new rider and that was worth all the driving around yesterday. His name is Bralyn, but I am not sure if that's how you spell it, he said his nick name is Buddy so I will go with that. It was fun riding again with my family and singing them good bus songs, I pray we have some good follow up visits next Sat.

Had some good visits

The one thing I hoped to run into today, The Lord let it happen, I had mentioned that I wanted to run into some former bus kids with their own kids, and sure enough I did and some were married to each other and they remembered the good times they had and even sang some of them bus songs. They promised to let their kids come and I pray they do. 2 certain kids broke my heart and I will try my best to love them, They are what some would call very low class, but they need Jesus.

The Redeemer Route

Today my Family will start the bus ministry at our church, My route will be called the Redeemer Rt. but we will start by helping Bro. Carl and Bro. Eric, There Route I named it the Messiah Rt. I chose to name each route to help kids know which van they came in. We only have one van right know but as we search for a second my family will help the Messiah Rt. grow. They are struggling to get kids but Bro. Carl has never giving up going. Bro. Eric now helps him and that encouraged Bro. Carl. They at times have no kids coming and it is discouraging to them, but wont quit. They need help, and we will try. I am praying that with weeks of visiting we will have a good turn out, Building a new or rebuilding a Route is hard but if the burden is there I believe God will bless. I am not looking for a big turn out but if we can get just one, it will make a difference.
The bus route is very important to me, and I know it works. my daughter was a bus kid, when my wife was a child she was a bus kid, my mother in law as a child was a bus kid, and because they never stopped I took my kids off the bus and I took them to church, and it was at church that I got Saved, and now I am a God called preacher in His perfect will. There is a need for the bus ministry in my community. I pray that God can use my family and Bro. Carl and Bro. Eric to reach these kids. Please pray for us. Oh and also to buy a new van to get the Redeemer Rt. going, When my family moved from Abbeville we committed to the bus ministry $2500.00, is it enough no, but some have nothing. We also need more help visiting. Our church has people that used to work routes years ago, and I pray that they get on board and visit. We need help and plenty of it. Our town has kids that need to know about salvation, Many that used to ride the bus rt. are now grown and have children, I hope to visit them as well. Please pray for us, and if you can help let me know.
