MINISTRY NEWS
We are keeping busy with church ministry here in Española. We had a Harvest Festival outreach on Oct. 31 that drew many from our community. Last Friday we had our Thanksgiving service and dinner that drew many new faces. In addition to leading and preaching two services each Sunday, Massimo is now teaching the newly re-formed youth group each Wed. evening.

Three weeks ago we launched a new radio ministry program called "Hope of Glory." It airs each Sunday afternoon on KKIM from South of Albuquerque to Southern Colorado. You can listen to it live over the internet at www.mykkim.com. It's on from 1:05 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Mountain Time. You can also download complete sermons anytime from www.sermon.net/solafide.

Massimo will be ordained to the gospel ministry on Nov. 22 at FBC Española. Anyone in the area is invited to attend the service at 4 p.m. The pastors from Mars Hill Church in Albuquerque are planning to attend (yes, this is the ABQ campus of Mars Hill Church of Seattle).

At a recent annual meeting of the Santa Fe Baptist Association, I was elected team leader for leadership development. My goals are to develop regular seminar-type meetings with speakers who can pass on expertise in ministry. Also, I hope to initiate a seminary extension program for our association (www.seminaryextension.org.). There is a need for theological education in Northern NM to train church leadership.

We are hoping to make some presentations of our Italy ministry with WorldVenture in 2010. If you'd like to host a presentation for a group in your home or church, please let us know. We really need to make some headway on our partner development and being in New Mexico when most of our contacts are in other states makes it difficult. Please pray for us to be able to present our ministry on a regular basis.

Massimo is planning a trip to Louisville, KY in April to attend the Together for the Gospel conference April 13-15 and will remain in the area until April 19. If you are attending this conference or live in the area please let us know and so we can connect during this time. If you are unaware of this conference, it is a great time of hearing some of the best Bible teachers of our time. You can listen to past conference messages at www.t4g.org. If you'd like to attend you can also use the coupon code T4GINVITE to save $20 when you register.

Massimo's books are now available from amazon.com and if you'd like to purchase a copy of his Witnessing Without Fear you can save 20% by using the code HHEJBSV8 when you place your order at www.createspace.com/3370631.

FAMILY NEWS
Kimberly is staying busy managing the home and home-schooling Aemilia who began kindergarten this year. Loris is now walking and is a very happy child who enjoys tackling Gianna and screaming. We also are enjoying having a neighbor girl over very regularly who is an orphan living with her elderly grandfather. She repeatedly tells us how much she loves being part of our family and wishes she could stay with us.

Massimo recently became a Big Brother with Big Brothers/Big Sisters of Northern New Mexico. His Little Brother is an 8 yr. old boy named Christian who lives with his grandmother. He is a passionate boy who loves to talk and explore new things.

If you FaceBook, you can find us at www.facebook.com/klorenzini and www.facebook.com/mlorenzini. We regularly communicate on FB and Massimo is also on Twitter at www.twitter.com/maxmassimo. Our ministry web site is at www.fuelingfaith.com. If you haven't visited there yet, please check it out sometime.

PRAYER REQUESTS
·         For ability to schedule a lot of ministry presentations in 2010 (would you be one?).
·         That Massimo's time in Louisville would produce some meaningful connections with potential ministry partners.
·         For the ministry in Española to continue to develop towards biblical health and maturity.
·         For the radio program to bless listeners in NM and around the world via the internet and for God to raise up a donor base to pick up the expense.
·         For Massimo's work with Santa Fe Baptist Association in leadership development.
·         For our family to have time together and maintain balance in a busy lifestyle.
·         That God would draw Rebecca (the orphaned girl) to Himself. That we would be an example of God's love to her.
·         That God would draw our children to Himself and help them to understand the gospel.
·         That Massimo would be a good mentor to his Little Brother, Christian.
