REVIVAL WEEK

Our recent revival services in Hatch during the week of Halloween were a great success. We had 2 of the local Spanish speaking churches in attendance, with several visitors from our home church in Salem, NM. We were also able to go out on the darkest night of the year with the light of Jesus Christ to invite trick or treaters and their parents to church to hear the Gospel. A great time was had by all. Our praise and worship music was provided by our special guest Wally Ramirez. and Lourdes Pulido interpreted for us. We are so grateful to the Church of God for allowing us to use their facilities. The church had sat empty since about 2009 and so it was a privilege to be able to bring “life” back into the sanctuary. Cheryl had spent weeks cleaning the cobwebs and vacuuming up the dust and dirt from years of non-use. In the process discovering the rich history of the church and the people that once attended, including Pastor Jim Woods and his wife Anabelle. This unfortunately is the state of many churches in America, with many that are closing at an alarming rate, from lack of attendance. This is why the Lord wanted a revival in the Hatch Valley, before Christianity becomes extinct in America. 2 Thessalonians 2:1-3 Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; We are witnessing a great falling away in this country.

REACHING OUT TO THE YOUTH

We were recently invited by the local community coalition to take part in a Fall Festival Dance at the local middle school. While this is a secular organization, bringing together local resources to the community, We attend the monthly meetings faithfully, to represent our faith-based organization and to bring the light to an otherwise dark world, void of the truth. While Hatch has resisted popular ideology, we can see that there is pressure for the school district to cave into the world’s viewpoints. This was an opportunity to let the children play Ping-Pong on the table that we brought over from the Youth Recreation Center. We were able to invite them to come to our facility for our after school programs. We take every opportunity to influence for the Kingdom of God whether it be a Chamber of Commerce meeting or a City Council Meeting. 2 Corinthians 5:20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God. We encourage you to be a representative of Christ in every facet of your local community. If we don’t be the light in this dark world, who will?

MERRY CHRISTMAS

We have now been back in the United States for one year. As we reflect on the many blessings that God has bestowed on us, as we work for Him, we think about our brothers and sister in Christ that we left behind in Kenya. The Bible College that we started is about to graduate their second class of disciples and continue the work that we started in Machakos. Many of our graduates are continuing to teach the doctrine of Christ in their own churches. We thank each and everyone of our teachers, and pastors in Kenya and in Tanzania for their dedication to fulfilling the mandate of Jesus to make disciples of all nations. We could not do this without your support. We continue to send donations to the Bible College, as well as feed the boarders, and make the study books for them. We are supporting widows and the less fortunate in the Miwani area, as well as in other parts of Kenya. If you would like to be a part of providing Christmas for the needy children in our Fountain of Life Church, please consider a donation of any size. Each year we provided a Christmas party with refreshments and gifts, along with games, crafts, and the Christmas message of the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your love and kindness that you have shown to Kenya. May God bless you richly, in Jesus name. Click the link below to donate.
