On December the 19th in the morning service, we had our English class graduation. We are so thankful for those that came to the English class. We had a great time teaching English of course, but we also had a great opportunity to share the Word of God. Each week the students had a Bible verse to memorize. Also, they were able to hear the Word of God preached before we had the graduation that morning. We are trusting in God’s Word to do a work in their hearts. During this time, we really got to build some relationships with the people in the neighborhood. This was one of our main goals. Keep praying for the people in this picture that graduated and even others that had come for some of the other classes. It is our prayer to see these people come to the Lord!
Special Christmas Service:
For the month of December Stephanie taught a series of lessons on the birth of Christ to the children. While she was doing this, she also taught them to play “Joy to the World” with hand bells. December the 19th in the evening we had a special Christmas service. During this time there was a special presentation where the children sang and played Joy to the World. We also had special songs by several people and preaching on the birth of Christ. We thank the Lord for the 43 people that came that night. It was a true blessing to see each person. After the service we had a great time of food and fellowship and were able to meet and talk to several visitors from around the church. Keep praying for the people in this part of Santiago, Chile. There are many religions in the area; this is exactly what they do not need, but what they do need is the Redeemer, Jesus Christ!
Special Gifts and Cards:
We want to thank each one that has sent us Christmas cards and extra offerings for Christmas. This is a real blessing to our family. We never take for granted the blessing that you are to our family.
