WINDOWS AND DOORS!!!!! (almost...)

We thought this day would never come... but it came... and almost all the windows and doors were installed.  Praise the Lord!!  Also big thank-yous go out to some of our Argentine friends who came out to help along with our nephew Brandon and a few young men from our church. We have the glass promised to arrive and be installed by this Friday or Saturday. The way it has been going so far, it doesn't seem like that will happen. But, we will trust the Lord's timing to be perfect and try not to fret. 
We are still very anxious to have the building finished enough to have meetings there. Please keep praying for us that it will happen soon.  It would be excellent to have Easter services there!!

Plastering Ninjas!!

You can't see the progress from the outside... but on the inside, what a difference! Two bothers, Recayte, who are our brothers in the faith, came for three days to work on plastering walls in our building. We never dreamed how fast these two men could work! They were like Ninjas flinging that plaster on the walls!! They finished all the walls that were undone in the temple area, finished the entryway, and did most of the stairway and office. They probably would have finished that if we wouldn't have run out of material! Thanks guys for your sacrifice in coming to work so hard for our church home.


Now this Saturday we are having a kid's activity in the building. Please pray that these children and new neighborhood children will recieve God's message of salvation. Also pray that they will catch the vision of what the Lord can do in their neighborhood through the Iglesia Bautista Nueva Vida (New Life Baptist Church)!

Youth Camp season - Over...

It's hard to believe that another camp season has come and gone. Now all that is left to do is praise the Lord for saving the souls of 19 children and teens and for the decisions that were made. We will also be praying that all these young souls will remain "connected" to the vine and that we will see them again next year when camp season comes around again. John 15:5
We are so grateful for all those who participated in the running of the camp and for those who volunteered their time as counselors.
