| The biggest hinderance to growth is our lack of proper facilities We are buying a key building right on the main road in Tepic. The facility is over ten thousand square feet. There is room for all our offices, Bible School, Childrens' Ministry and church services. In addition it has an industrial kitchen, a small apartment and six bathrooms. The building called "The Fountain" was built as a reception hall and is ready made for a church. The Fountain is for sale for $200,000 usd. Life Center already gave $30,000 down and has one year to pay the remainer. Will you give to help buy The Fountain? This building is literally going to change the spiritual landscape of Tepic! Over the years many friends have dreamed with us about a key Christian Center in the region and this is our opportunity. A plan for giving A square foot of The Fountain costs $20usd. Please send your offering for The Fountain to: How many square feet can you help us buy? * $200 will buy 10 square feet. * $1,000 will buy an office. * $3,000 will buy a Sunday School room. Make your check payable to ANCC and they will graciously send you a receipt for your tax purposes. |

| It's Time for a Christian Center in Tepic, Mexico! |
| We Need Your Help |

In 1998 Centro de Vida "Life Center" was planted! Through praying, giving, and visiting, the Church quickly grew. Because of the focus on youth and children the services are full of hungry flourishing new Christians. Thousands hear the Good News in Tepic each year as a result of our outreach efforts. We want to do more Even though so much has been accomplished, we feel we are just beginning. We know it is time to establish a strong Center in Tepic that will mulitply our efforts to win the lost, help the poor and send Mexican Missionaries to plant churches in the whole earth. |

| At Life Center Church the main service is held on Sunday evening, as is common in Mexico. We have new people visiting the church most every service and many new believers! |
| Actually there are 5 Pastors in Life Center! |
We prayed out front and dedicated the building to the Lord.... |

Without a local church people are left to make it on their own. Tepic has close to five hundrend thousand people. There are forty very small churches in the city and most towns in the region do not have a church. Here is what happens when churches are planted: * The Gospel is consistently preached. * The poor and needy are helped. * Orphans and widows receive ongoing care. * Prisoners are visited. * Youth are transformed. * Addicts are rehabilitated. * Families are restored. In other words, Jesus meets the needs of the world through His church. |
