Wow! Wow! Wow! God is moving big time here in The Amazonas. Since the pandemic, the church here in Leticia has grown. Mission Ministries (MDM) is the covering of AFAMMS here in Leticia Amazonas. I have been watching God move with great excitement. This newsletter will share with you the highlights of what God has been doing here.
Last year we hosted the Pastor's and Leadership Conference at our church. I shared in the last newsletter how God allowed us to bless the indigenous pastors who work in hard-to-reach places on the Amazon River and its tributaries. This year Pastor Julio gave a challenge to all the leadership at MDM and the Houses of Faith to do an evangelistic outreach to a minimum of 50 persons including refreshments. WOW God! The leadership took up the challenge which resulted in over 1,000 persons receiving the gospel message, over 1,000 persons receiving refreshments and a major growth in the local church at MDM. Good Friday was encountered with the great revelation that the church building where we have been meeting can no longer host major events. The church was so packed full that about 100 persons were seated on the floor, the chairs were placed to the edge of the wall with only a small isle for walking, the back doors were opened out toward the street and still people were standing. Therefore (of course), we are in a major building project. The present building will be used for youth and children ministries. We are now feeding over 100 children on Saturdays. The challenge has been given to as many as desire to sow $130.00 as many times as they are moved to do so until July 31st for the purchasing and foundations of the new building that they sow. (Luke 7:4-5)
The churches that are under MDM are all growing to the extreme. Besides serving on the praise and worship team, I am working with 3 churches on the Peruvian side of the Amazon. The church in Caballo Cocha Peru has been ministering in San Juan. We are all in building projects and exploding with people. Pray to the Lord of the harvest to send laborers to the harvest. I believe that these are the end times. There is much to do before the rapture. We need people, money and PRAYERS! What is God saying to you? How can you be a part of what God is doing here in Leticia?
The last 2 months I have received the daughter of the pastors in Caballo Cocha. Her name is Nataly. She is staying with me to complete her schooling in order to study economics here in the university in Leticia. This is a 3 – 4-year commitment. When she finishes, she will have a higher education than most of her family and peers in her community. Since their church is growing so much, there is great need for someone who can steward the blessings of God that is being poured out on this church. Please pray for divine wisdom on my part as I am teaching and supplementing her training and discipleship.
The middle of July to the middle of August I will be in the States to work on AFAMMS documentation, visit with some churches, assist my niece's quincinera, attend a women's conference and see family and friends. Continue to pray and give. Remember “The fervent effectual prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” KJV If you would like to participate in the financial challenge of sowing, My contact info is above. I hope to see many of you soon.
