Dear brothers and sisters,

Praise the Lord for bringing us always back to the Gospel of Christ. These past months we have been praying as a church so God can bless our plans to share the Gospel with all our family members and relatives again. We have been praying for months in the Bible studies and memorizing verses so our sharing will be more about sharing the verses and letting God’s Word be the power that can transform and save people. Please help us praying while we pray, remember and get trained in how to present the Gospel using God’s Word deliberately as the foundation of our sharing and not our opinions or good desires.

I am training two young man in how to teach and share God’s word with children. Last Sunday our brothers had the privilege of sharing God’s word in our children’s ministry; one in Spanish and the other in English. Our children were very glad to hear about the consequences of obedience and disobedience.

Praise God for giving us a church with families from many countries, including from the American military whom we can support while they are deployed. Please help us to pray for the deployed military brothers and their families while they are serving overseas. Also, rejoice for the different opportunities of discipleship we have in the church. There is a lady from Bolivia that surrendered her life to Christ some months ago and is getting ready for baptism. Praise the Lord!

Please help us praying so we will make sure that we continue sharing the gospel with strangers, knowing that we already shared it with our own family members. Continue to us pray for the salvation through our homeless ministry and outreaches. Right now the temperatures are very high in Japan and the heat is a big challenge for the homeless.

Thank you always for your prayers.
God bless,

Luis
