Pray for the fledgling church plant in Plasencia where the unemployment rate is even much higher than the 22% unemployment nationwide. The lack of work in the area is making it difficult to hold on to people who need to be discipled or evangelized, and many of their faithful attendees have had to move to look for work.

Praise God that these challenging difficulties have also been an opportunity for the church to grow in trust of the Lord's promise to meet the needs of His people. Praise Him that just last week one of the ladies who had been without work for over a year has been admitted to a training program that should lead to employment. Please pray that others in the church body would be patient and wait for the Lord's provision.

Pray for the Stipps as they will be traveling to the US in April for a missions conference and for their daughter Anna's wedding on May 5th. Please pray for the salvation of Mari Jesus and Adolfo, Luisa and Jose Enrique, Patricia and Silvia, and Jose.
