January – February 2015<\/h1>\n

Casting the Vision<\/h2>\n

It appears that our vision for 2015 is gaining momentum. \u201cEach One Reaching One, Being Disciples, Making Disciples,\u201d has not fallen on deaf ears. Praise the Lord! God is at work!<\/p>\n

We have seen a growth spurt\u00a0 take place in the last six weeks. This growth has happened through various methods.<\/p>\n

We are having a church wide activity each month with the emphasis on inviting visitors, we are also continuing on with our home Bible study groups, we have added a weekly church wide discipleship course, and are also having one new family over for dinner each Friday night. With all this, we are endeavoring to draw the \u201cnet\u201d into church. Praise the Lord! It is working!<\/p>\n

Humberto<\/h2>\n

I visited him 6 times on visitation before success. Then he came. Out of church for 10 years and now with prostate cancer, Humberto is hungry for God\u2019s Word. He is taking the discipleship course and growing like a weed. Praise the Lord! It is never too late!<\/p>\n

Building Expansion<\/h2>\n

We now have certified building plans for our expansion project. We \u201cshould\u201d be getting a firm estimate within the next 2 weeks for project costs. We will send out an update at that time for those of you that would like to donate.<\/p>\n

The Machete<\/h2>\n

While winding up a mountain dirt road in our 4-door sudan, I thought to myself, \u201cWhere is my 4-wheel drive?\u201d I was headed to a town called \u201cEl Machete\u201d about an hour from Medell\u00edn. I arrived safely to a family of around 15 people and preached to them about Hell. Things went well and I was soon heading back home. One of our men, whose family I was visiting, told me a few days later, \u201cOne of the young women was scared to death after your message, and was worried that was where she might end up so I led her to the Lord.\u201d Sometimes the Lord has to \u201cdrop the machete…I mean hammer, to get people to listen to the Gospel.<\/p>\n
