Please pray for a retreat that will be held for pastors' wives in Guerrero, Mexico, on October 17-20. Several of these women lived through Hurricane Otis last November.

More than a dozen members of a local fellowship will travel by van, airplane, and car to a large city in a neighboring state.

Please pray for faithfulness, perseverance, logistical miracles, and transformed lives for God's glory.
