We had the pleasure last week of having our home church come down and serve with us. It was a great time of seeing our church family and catching up on things back home. We Love You Guys!
They helped us with starting a youth service for our boys as well as the youth of Monte Redondo and what a blessing it was. The team had gone out into the village and handed out flyer's to all the youth and hung them up in the local pulperias along the way. I figured if we had 40 show up it would be a good start and the youth would catch a vision of what youth ministry could look like, but God had a different plan. The first day we had around 120 youth show up. I was blown away at this point and realized God really wanted to do something HUGE during the week. The next day rolled and I thought to myself "what if we have a 150 youth today?" Well to my surprise about 200 showed up for the service. God is truly awesome! The team did a time of worship, a drama, a message and Bible studies with the boys at the farm. The boys in our ministry were so excited about doing youth ministry that some of our boys did one of the dramas for the Wednesday night service. It was really cool to see them catch the vision God had set before us. They are ready to start a worship band as well.
During Wednesday night service we had around 100 people show up for the regular service. In three days 450 people came through the doors of the church with 60 decisions to follow Christ.

The team also did food ministry to many families. In one situation the whole family came to know the Lord as their Personal Savior.

Please be in prayer as we continue these youth services every Tuesday from 3-4 pm.

To God be the Glory!
