Lets Celebrate!

We had two Baptisms this month. Gustavo and Dustin have become out new brothers in Christ. The both were baptized in the same week. Gustavo and Enoch had been studying for some time. Dustin was new to our church but had congragated at others churches before hand. A few weeks later we had a "New Members" luncheon and we prayed over them and welcomed them into our church and the Body of Christ.

Gustavo is a friend of Enochs Fianceé

Dustin is an english student that studied with Perry.

This year, as interns, Micah and I had the privledge of being a part of the Team Banquet. It was a night full of laugter! It was a time to relfect on the past year. We shared stories and gave each other gag gifts. Micah and I got certificates. I got the "Plummed Out" award. I once had about 15 plums in the span of just a couple of days. And then I got terribly ill. The doctor said it was the water. Everyone else says its from the "30" plums I ate "in one day." So I currently only drink bottled water. My contribution to the night were funny things my english students said. We dressed up and had a very nice dinner.

Our English course has currently ended and so had a celebration to commemorate their work. These students attended every classes and did well in their english improvement. We called it a graduation. We handed out certificates, we called their names from the pulpit, they came up and we took pictures on stage. After all the certificates were handed out we ate some delicious fingers foods. It was great! Its the one time I get to stand at the pulpit and speak. ;)

Claudia and I

Some of my students have decided to continue with their english classes in which case we will focus more on using the bible studies instead of bible stories.
Please pray that the Holy Spirit guide me in reaching my students.
Thanks for reading and all your support!

Nos vemos muy pronto!
