^KJV Acts 9:31 Then had the churches rest throughout all Judaea and Galilee and Samaria, and were edified; and walking in the fear of the Lord, and in the comfort of the Holy Ghost, were multiplied. 

Dear Brothers and sisters in Christ, 

May God truly bless you in all you do for Him. I am excited to think about churches multiplying themselves as seen in Acts 9:31. We definitely need more pillars and grounds of truth!  

It was great to have Brother Cristóbal and Sister Enieda Yañez with us here in the states. Brother Cristóbal came to the U.S. to work on the Panama school book project. We attended a meeting at Metropolitan Baptist Church to work out details on the budget and prepare a presentation for those who may wish to donate. There is a lot of excitement about what can be accomplished in the hearts of the Panamanian people. Sister Enieda was a guest speaker for a women’s conference that our home church sponsored. They were both a blessing to us! 

I would ask that you continue to pray for us to get visas to go to Colombia. At this time we are waiting for the incorporation of our ministry in Colombia so they can send us the invitation letter that we need to be able to apply for our visas.  Many governmental delays have set us back. I would also ask that you pray as I work on getting
my Mexican passport. This would facilitate many open doors of ministry. 

I am also excited to have finished visiting supporting churches and to be able to rest. If I have missed your church and you would like for me to come, please let me know. As always, I appreciate your prayers and support! 

In Christ,
Michael Lea and Family
Missionary to Colombia
