The finale and the beginning.

Things have been so crazy since we completed our language school in Matagalpa that we have not had a chance to bring to a conclusion our ministry there.  After Thursday and the low number from the Liberation celebration we were excited to see many of our student return for the last day of class.  It was great to see all their smiling faces as we opened each class period in assembly time. We quickly dismissed them to class so that our teachers could begin their last day of teaching.  Pastor Javier share a clear gospel message in the closing assembly.  Each class session was different as Pastor Javier shared the good news of Christ and His love for each of the students.  The Lord blessed our time together and many students made decisions for Christ.

We had 395 registered teens and adults and 140 Children.  260 students turned in an exit survey.  Of the surveys received, 138 students indicated that they had may a decision to accept Christ as Lord during the week.  Additionally 135 indicated that they were interested in receiving more information about the Christian life.  All of these surveys have been given to pastor Javier so that Primera Inglesia can follow up and visit each of these students.  All praise and glory go to our gracious Lord and Savior.

Today also begins a week of ministry with our team for Tennessee.  the team consist of members of Riverdale Baptist Church from Murfreesboro,  Crossroads Community Church from Baxter  and Encounter Life from Manchester.  These three churches have partnered together to establish a long term partnership with Pastor Marvin of Inglesia Brazos Abiertos here in Jinotega.  Pray for them this week as they spend time getting to know the heart beat of the work in the city and begin to make plans for future ministry with Past Marvin.  They will be surveying the area around the church, do door to door evangelism, and spend time praying over the city and holding evening evangelical meetings.

God is at work among His people drawing them unto Himself.  Pray and ask the Lord of the harvest where you to can serve the kingdom.
