Dubiel lives in the area and provides communications with her parents.

Please keep Dr. Alvaro & Soledad Avila in your prayers as he recovers from a fall injury and returns to treat covid patients. For Soledad, continued comfort after the death of her sister and for the people of southern Baja as they deal with all of the hardships from the pandemic.  Please pray that they continue to be able to find the medications needed for this deadly disease and for availability of the vaccine to help prevent it.
