Back to Basics!
Evangelism…
Hello family and friends, and welcome to our April update. After starting the year off in The Bahamas, we are now back in Mexico and back to work.
Local Ministry
As a base we are continuing to have events focused on prayer, bible reading and evangelism. We have been setting up free coffee and snacks in public places and inviting people to partake and talk. We have been able to share the gospel, pray for people, and just making friends creates opportunities.
Discipleship Training School (DTS)
We are also in the middle of a discipleship school. We have five students from three different countries. Carmen and I have been helping out with the school in the areas that we can. I will be teaching for the first week of April.
The Students are taking part in all of the base ministry activities while taking classes daily. They recently went to a community that is growing, but has had a lot of opposition in the past. Dale and I did an interview with the pastor a few years ago and he told us how people from the community cut off their utilities, and threatened their lives with weapons. Now the gospel is penetrating the same community and there are many more believers.
Salamanca
As you all know, Carmen and I are helping with the church in Salamanca. This is the church that her parents pastor. We travel to Salamanca every two to three weeks to have activities with the youth and help with the services. A few weeks ago we preached together for the first time. It was a success, in spite of my poor Spanish. This is a ministry we intend to keep pushing.
Thank you for your interest in the ministries and reading this newsletter. God has a plan and we should be seeking him and his heart for people in our lives. Remember to take every opportunity that presents itself, to share the gospel with every person around you. Let’s continue to pray for each other as we build God’s kingdom.
