Yesterday was the Jesus March here in Caracas. What an encouraging event to be with God's family. This city is so big and hearts so hard that it is easy to get discouraged. But being together in the Jesus March helps one to realize we are not alone and what joy it will one day be to worship and praise God together in heaven.
It seems like yesterday that I wrote on this blog.
There is always plenty to do. Harry started his fall session in the Center for Ministry Development, teaching a class on "The Sermon on the Mount". He has 5 students who seems to be enjoying the class. He has also been mentoring Pastor Armando and has a class with him weekly. We are also involved in Pastor Armando's house church, helping where we can by teaching or preaching in the Sunday Morning worship service or Friday evening discipleship class. This past month the administrator of our Christian Bookstore, "Hidden Treasures" has been on vacation in Brazil visiting her sister, so Harry is filling in for her till she gets back in another week.
Lynn continues to be involved in the Macaracuay ladies ministry at Fabian Rubio, a prison half-way house. We've been going through Celebrate Recovery material and have seen the Lord work in these women's lives in a very encouraging way. A couple of the women have recently attended a retreat on "Forgiveness" as a result of their desire to have the Lord heal their lives. We praise the Lord for his transforming power in our lives and the lives of these women.
Discipling a couple of women who were baptized this past summer has been a real joy for Lynn also. What a blessing from the Lord to help these women grow in their understanding of God's Word and what it means to follow Jesus.
Continue to pray for us, that God will use us to bring glory to His name and extend His Kingdom here in Caracas.
