Dear Friends and Family,

My trip to Colombia in August was full of blessings and exceeding opportunities to do the will of God. Colombia is the 26^th largest nation in the world and the fourth largest in South America. Colombia has many problems with poverty and drug addictions. While being on this trip I was able to meet many people who were willing to help me with the local outreaches for the children of Bogota.

I was able to visit a children center and provided lunch for the children and staff

I was also given the opportunity to speak with pastors and missionaries who I encouraged to help their community and serve the people around them. We partook in street evangelism for the children and families that lived on the streets.

There were also two volunteer hairstylist that cut the hair of the children and provided them with new haircuts for the coming school year.

A local dentist and his staff came to our community outreach and provided dental cleaning for the children in the neighborhood

Through the support of the volunteers we were able to establish a national volunteer team. Trevor and Sherry Main, missionaries from Canada brought a group of students to teach the word of God to the children.

During the month of September, we were able to launch a Back to School outreach in the city of Rosarito, Mexico for about 150 children and their families.

During this outreach, children learned praise songs and families heard the gospel and accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior. We handed out various school supplies, toys and food. This outreach would have not been possible without the service of Mark and lori Raigans and their family. We were also blessed with the time and service of many of the members from the local chuch in Mexico. La Montaña.

Last week, I was able to speak at a weekend long marriage conference where over 50 couples renewed their wedding vows and recommitted their marriages to Christ. This conference took place in Tijuana, Mexico.

.Thank you to everyone who has supported the ministry though your fanancial and spiritual support. It is because of  your faithful support that many lives are able to be transformed. Please keep us in your prayers as we will be heading to Honduras during the month of October.

God Bless
