Just wanted to share a short story with you and to let you know what we’re up to today.
This photo was taken Sunday night. That’s Pastor Antonio in the middle, with Zacheo on the left and Mariano on the right. Both Zacheo and Mariano are men we prayed for our very first day in San Pablo. Zacheo’s story, we have told repeatedly. Mariano had not gone to church since his wife passed away years ago. That very first day, we prayed that God would soften his heart and bring him to church so that he could hear of God’s amazing love for him. Sure enough, that night and every night since, he has been at our evening services. Praise God for His faithfulness in answering our prayers!
The reason the picture is significant is that, on Sunday night, these two men became members of the church. They have given their lives to Christ and are now a part of His body in San Pablo! There was a third man, Marcos, who also became a member that night, though he is not pictured. Please pray for these three brothers, that God would strengthen them, and that they would continue to fellowship with God’s people and hear God’s Word on a regular basis.
This afternoon, we are headed out to a women’s shelter in San Juan. There are about 20 women and their children there, and none of them know the Lord. We are planning to play games and sing songs with the children, and to share testimonies and present the Gospel with the women. Please pray for our efforts, and pray that God would be glorified in all that we do.
