Here is a new longer promotional piece. I did not really spend a lot of time on it. I would really like to get some feedback from someone telling me if it is usable or not.
Use it however you will. I appreciate any promotion you can give.

Bro. Marco Castro is a Costa Rica native living in the United States. Though he considers himself primarily a pastor to the Spanish speaking population of Kansas City, he is used in many churches in Latin America as a missionary. In this interview he tells about some of the countries he has visited as well as shares with the listeners where he feels there is still a great need for more missionaries.
You can find out more about Bro. Castro’s ministry from his church’s website.
It was enjoyable sharing a few minutes with Bro. Castro while we recorded. He has the heart of a pastor, displaying a deep desire to see people grow in their personal relationship with God.

After 15 straight weeks of having a new interview for you each Saturday, I missed today. I have emails out to missionaries in a few different countries. I look forward to sharing those with you when we get them recorded.
A bit of the problem with interviewing many missionaries is that some are in places where they do not have reliable telephone or Internet service. I also knew that it would be easier to interview some missionaries while they are in the US on furlough or deputation, but that has been equally problematic since they do not always know when and where they will be to get an interview in. We are working through these issues. While I still have several missionaries from town here that I could interview, I would like to spread them out a bit. If you are a missionary, please drop me a message and we will see if we can get you on the show.
Though I have always released the shows on Saturday in the past, it was never my intention to do so. Saturday is a hectic day for me. I was planning to release them on Mondays. It was just that when I got started, I could not wait to get the first show up and it was ready on a Saturday.
Because of the nature of the show, I really don’t have much time to talk about previous episodes and future ones. This is because I want each show to stand on its own and therefore could be listened to in any order by an individual or groups without feeling like they have missed out by missing one show. Therefore, I am planning to record a short format show once a month or so to give you any follow up information that you might like to know with some of the missionaries. In this show I will tell you what are in the plans for future episodes as well. This will be where I can read some listener mail and tell you how people are using the Missionary Talks program. This will not take the place of one of the weekly interviews. It will be in addition to the weekly show. I will probably release it about halfway between two regular episodes.
Please take the time to write me and let me know what you think of Missionary Talks and how you are sharing it with others. I would love to hear from you.
I have been asked several times by listeners about when I was going to be featured on the show. Well, there you have it. My wife takes over the hosting position during this episode.
Listen as the guest, David Peach, talks about working with the Deaf in México. You will hear a little of how the Lord lead the family to México and some interesting stories along the way. The ever popular question about whether sign language is the same in México as it is in the US is answered too.
Hear about how a 14 year old prayer request was recently answered.

Pancho and his family are missionaries to the country of Cuba. Pancho talks with us about Cuba and some of the difficulties missionaries face. For legal reasons, Pancho is currently not able to take his whole family into the country to minister, therefore they will be taking short trips into Cuba. While working to get into the country full time the family will be working with other missionaries and national pastors possibly in Mexico.
Pancho tells of what his ministry will be like in the country in the near future as well as shares with the listeners what he would like to see as the results of his labors.
You can read the Rovirosa prayer letters at their mission board website.

Emily and Vickie are daughters of missionaries who have been in Mexico all of the girl’s lives. They speak with us about ministry opportunities that they have as 16 and 12 year old young ladies. They also tell us about the city of Mérida and shopping. Then they explain what life in the villages is like for the young people in the villages.
This concludes this group of interviews with Missionary Kids. It was good to have them tell their stories with us. Please share their stories with others. In the future we will have MKs from other areas of the world.
I hope you enjoyed these interviews. Please take time to share with me through email or through the comment section of each of these shows what you thought about them.

This interview is a bit different. It is a continuation of our series with missionary kids. All of the others have been older teens or adults. However this episode as well as the next feature younger children. Therefore these will be a little different in the information gleaned. Hopefully they will be a blessing to you.
In this episode I interview my own son James. He is 9 years old and talks mostly about the Mayan ruins and other places to see near Mérida. At least, that is the information that made it through all of the editing.
