Mario


We would like to ask you for your continued prayers for a young boy named Mario who lives in the town of El Vergel. About 2 months ago he was admitted into the hospital because he had contracted Dengue fever. He has contracted yet another unknown virus that is continuing to worsen his already weak body. He has become paralyzed in both of his legs, has lost most all of his function in both of his arms and hands, and has lost the majority of his eye sight in one of his eyes. However, despite his worsening state of health he gave us the best Christmas gift we could ask for. He surprised us with his presence on Saturday the 26th, we were all able to see him for the first time since he was admitted into the hospital. He was able to go home for Christmas, even though it was only for a few days. Since we do not know how much longer he will be home and available for visitors, Dan and Diana went to visit him at his home to see how he was doing and to give him a christmas present. We are praying that this situation, as hard as it is, brings him and his family to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ, the ultimate Healer, and to know him as their personal Savior and their only Hope.
