Dear Pastors, Friends, & Family,

We have been very busy this month! We flew out to two churches on the mainland of Spain to see what we can learn about starting a church before we start ours. First, we went to the city of Torredembarra to see Pastor Lopez and his church; they are the church that sponsored us to come into the country. They have been very good to us! I was able to preach in Spain for the first time and sing a special with the men from the church. Two weeks after that, we went to Seville, Spain, and spent time with some friends from college, Justin and Grace Hayes, who started their church about two and a half years ago. They have also been very helpful in our paperwork process. We were able to learn a lot on these two trips, and both places had boys around the same age as Nick and Sam. So they really had a good time being able to be with kids their age that speak English.

We have some new contact information I want to make sure you all have. Our email remains the same, but our phone numbers are different. We have a U.S. number that can be dialed as any regular U.S. number and will ring through to our cell phones but cannot receive text messages. Our Spain numbers can receive iMessages from iPhones if you need to send a text or if you do not have an iPhone you can use the WhatsApp app with our Spain numbers to send messages. It’s amazing how technology has changed just since we went to Mexico 13 years ago.

Now that we are basically settled in here in Mallorca, we realize that life here on the island is quite a bit more expensive than the mainland. So, I would like to say thank you to all of you who have been faithful supporting us and especially to those who have taken us on since we have arrived! God is always good to provide our needs!

Thank you for your prayers and support,
Markie Bullock
