If History Repeats Itself
If history repeats itself, we will participate in ministry outreaches to over 3,500 people this summer in Mexico City. More importantly, nearly 600 people will make professions of faith in Jesus. Local churches will follow-up on 100% of the people who attend our outreaches. These are not events where we draw a crowd and preach…
Read MoreWe Couldn’t Do It
In 2017, Simply Sisters made and distributed over 50 beautiful gift baskets and bags filled with items meant to help and encourage the ladies who received them. There were hugs, tears, and grateful hearts – not only by those who received them, but in those who prepared and gave the baskets and bags. But…
Read MoreIt Isn’t a Bad Struggle
It’s always a struggle…though not a bad one. We constantly try to find an effective way to say, “Thank You!” to those who faithfully and generously support us and the ministry of DoorWays. Perhaps we can say it best with these words: “Your giving touches the hearts of people, changes the lives of people, and…
Read MoreA Slim Chance in a Big City
Antonio drives a cab – one of nearly 200,000 in Mexico City, home to 19 million people. When the hotel staff calls for a cab, there’s a pretty small chance Antonio will be the one picking you up. Unless, of course, God wants to demonstrate His love. When our home was burglarized on June 27th,…
Read MoreEmpanadas, Enchiladas, and Eucalyptus
Empanadas are one of our favorite foods in Argentina. Enchiladas are somewhat of a dietary staple in Mexico. Eucalyptus leaves are the basic diet of koalas in Australia. Sheila returned from another fabulous Simply Sisters® outreach in Argentina two weeks ago. She and the team hosted events at the Instituto Biblico Rio de la…
Read MoreBrewing in Argentina
Simply Sisters® is brewing in Argentina. While hundreds of ladies have received healing and hope from previous Simply Sisters® Ladies Tea outreaches, the ministry model is not solely dependent upon the presence of our teams. Students from Instituto Biblico Rio de la Plata (IBRP) in Buenos Aires have also begun hosting ladies teas and found…
Read MoreWhy Did Gabriel Run?
At one of the Simply Sisters® events in Mexico City in January, eight people prayed for Jesus to forgive their sins and put their faith in Christ. One of them was this five-year-old boy named Gabriel who ran to the altar to ask Jesus into his heart! Nearly 300 ladies (and a few men and children) attended the…
Read MoreSo Do We
Why have we hesitated to send a nonprofit, year-end appeal? Because we believe God knows our needs and provides answers before we even know to ask (Isaiah 65:24). Then why do we send updates to partners and friends? Because everyone we know is human and sometimes must be nudged in order to listen more closely…
Read MoreWhat the IRS Doesn’t Know
The IRS knows too much about you and me. In collusion with the banking industry and other government agencies, the IRS knows who you are, where you are, and has a pretty good idea of where you are going. They monitor more than your tax liability. The IRS knows too much about your life and…
Read MoreTears, Hugs, Smiles, and Burdens Lifted
Next month, Sheila and 13 other ladies will board planes bound for Mexico City and hold four Simply Sisters® events with neighborhood churches. We expect nearly 100 women will put their faith in Christ or make re-commitments at these events. How can we be confident of the numbers? It’s in line with what has happened…
