pray for ministry in Cuba

 


Galatians 5:13  NLT

For you have been called to live in freedom, my brothers and sisters. But don’t use your freedom to satisfy your sinful nature. Instead, use your freedom to serve one another in love.

 

Choose to serve.  We have freedom to do just that.  I am grateful for the church God has placed us in and how He is working.  I am grateful for the community around us where we seek to serve and share Christ.  He is working.  I grateful for the passion for the work God placed in front of me in missions.


On Monday I will be on the way back to Cuba for another mission trip, and I am excited about all God is doing.  It is an honor to be part of the sports ministry in Cuba that works with FCA.  This ministry is led by Alexander Roque Martinez and a great group of men and their families.  These FCA leaders are helping to make that happen and seeking to follow God.  Pray for wisdom and for God to provide.

 

I want to encourage you to pray for this coming trip, pray for our church The Community Fellowship, pray for my family and pray for those that you and I get to serve with every where.

 

Please pray for these things…

 

Pray for safe travels and all the details to come together.  The first week I will be with Alex and a teach from Seeds of Faith Church serving in the mountains of southern Cuba.  Pray for lives to be changed.

 

Pray for the ministry in Cuba that we are committed to serving with.  There are many team members working tirelessly to serve in many different areas of the country.  Pray for open hearts and opportunities.

 

Pray for each family there and here.  Pray for their protection and peace.  Pray for God to provide all that is needed.

 

It is an honor to serve, to share Jesus with people and to be part of what God is doing.  Your prayers and serving with this ministry make it even more successful.

 

Thank you for your prayers.  I cannot wait to share with you what God does!  May we be His witnesses wherever we go…

 

Acts 1:8 NLT  

But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.”

Have you heard of EDITH BURNS?

Edith Burns was a wonderful Christian who lived in San Antonio, Texas . She was the patient of a doctor by the name of Will Phillips. Dr. Phillips was a gentle doctor who saw patients as people. His favorite patient was Edith Burns.  One morning he went to his office with a heavy heart and it was because of Edith Burns.  When he walked into that waiting room, there sat Edith with her big black Bible in her lap earnestly talking to a young mother sitting beside her.  Edith Burns had a habit of introducing herself in this way: "Hello, my name is Edith Burns.  Do you believe in Easter?" Then she would explain the meaning of Easter, and many times people would be saved.  Dr. Phillips walked into that office and there he saw the head nurse, Beverly. Beverly had first met Edith when she was taking her blood pressure. Edith began by saying,"My name is Edith Burns. Do you believe in Easter?"  Beverly said, "Why yes I do."  Edith said, "Well, what do you

why is it Good Friday?

  Holy Week is the time we focus on God and His gift of salvation.  We come to Friday.  The day we remember the cross, Jesus’ death and all God has done for you and me   Why do they call this day “Good Friday” because it doesn’t seems good?   Jesus was treated as a criminal.  He was beaten so much that He could not recognize Him.  His pain would have been too much for you or me to endure.  That is especially from Scripture I’ve read or as in the movie the  Passion of the Christ .   Yet it is a good day.  It is Good Friday because God had our good in His heart.  What Jesus did that day changed our forever direction. Here are some thoughts that come to me:   He is Redemption and Redeemer   He too our Pain and Punishment   He is our Righteousness and Reality   He is the Savior and Life   All of those happened from the cross.  It was meant for the worst lawbreakers.  It was not meant for a Savior who never broke a law.  It was lifted high so that onlookers could see the price Jesus.   Look

Day 8 in Cuba

We have just come off and incredible weekend, and it is day 8 of the mission trip in Cuba.  Thank you to all who have been praying for this trip, the mission team and the impact it will have on those we serve.   Please don’t stop praying. Last week Alex and I served with a mission team in the mountains of southern Cuba.  There were several challenges, but God gave us safety, provision and opportunity to serve some of the sweetest people I have ever met.  No running water… sporadic electricity generated by a small, logo dammed up river, no transportation other than animals, limited food sources and more.  These people love the Lord and sharing their faith with others. Over the weekend we made our way back to Havana.  On Friday our vehicle broke down leaving us on the side of the road for several hours.  We then boarded a bus and rode 14 hours.  We arrived safely and even got some rest. Sunday was so, so good.  We visited two partner churches.  In the morning we were with one church that
