UPDATE

Hey people.

I hope everyone is doing good and learning a lot from the lord.

I just wanted to stop by and let you know how things are going here in the Dominican base, and in my life.

SHORT TERM TRIPS

Honestly in the last week I had a hard time focusing on God while I had to do all the set up for the last mission trip that we just hosted. It seems like I was ready to be done for the summer. One thing that I know works really good when you can not go further is to ask God to strengthen you. Well did so and God has been helping me a lot.

The team was all Korean so I learned a lot about Asian culture.

GUACHUPITA

Alex is doing great his eye started to look better just a week after the surgery, me and Clemente went to the clinic last Monday and the doctor sad is going excellent.

Fior and Francisco are doing great, Patricia their oldest daughter (8) takes care of Deiling (7 months old) while Fior works as a maid.

Dulce is doing really good. God keeps talking to her through beautiful dreams. Erika (9) and Emerelin (10) are both the worship leader and the bible readers at the house church.

Corey Jacobs actual project leader was amazed of how the house church started with 5 people and now’s 18.

Even thou the people there are doing great spiritually, they are having a hard time financially. Recently, Patria, Silvia and I distributed some food that the last project bought for them, they were really glad.

HDF

Those are the initials of “Heroes De la FE” name of the youth group I lead. Our youth pastor was recently in the states and I was really afraid that now being the leader in charge, having a project coming and setting up a lot for this one, I was going to be extremely busy, but the kids are learning a lot. The evangelism ministry KANDELA is going great and we had an awesome prayerwalking time last Saturday. The whole last week was spent helping a group of missionaries from our mother church in the states to paint our church bulding. Kids loved to spent time helping them and spending time cleaning the building afterwards.

I’m planning a two days mission trip with some of the guys, part of personal training and the beginning of a vision of training Dominican missionaries to go around the world.

DISCIPLES

Last meeting I thought I was going to teach them a lot, but instead they were the ones telling me how incredible all the signs of Jesus’ next coming are. One of them said “Jesus is almost here”. We had a great time talking about that.

Two of them are getting married next year, one more just got engaged last week and every talk goes around my trip to a country “where they put Christians in jail”.

KINGDOM BRINGERS

The summer has been really good for The Kingdom Bringers for we’ve had the chance not only to be interpreters but also ministers, Isaias had a great time with us. While Tom Hood’s team at cienaga there was a lady (I don’t know who), that was obviously Demon Possessed, I was not there but after two hours she was SET FREE! Many and Hector accomplished this glorious task.
