The evangelism team had the amazing, but often overwhelming task, of sharing the Good News of Jesus Christ with the hundreds of people who came through the medical clinic. During the 4 days we were in Manuelita Saenz, many people heard the Truth from God's Word. The children came back day after day because they received something they usually do not get - attention! Lots of attention through games, stories, and just plain ol' hugs and smiles. Each day presented new challenges. It usually does when you are bringing Christ into a neighborhood. Satan tries to thwart your efforts. But each day the team rose above the challenges and the Gospel was shared. Because of the efforts and boldness of our teams, we now have a lot of follow-up work to do in this community along with the pastor of the local church with whom we partnered to do work in this neighborhood. This is such a praise! We have many interested people who want us to come back to visit their homes because they want to hear more about God's Truth. The community service team helped do some renovation projects in the community center/worship center in the community of El Ejercito, a community that we have been working in for over a year. The team worked hard and the people of El Ejercito were very appreciative. They were so inspired by the kindness, that they joined in with some projects of their own to improve their worship center.
