So enjoyed going to one of our remote villages. Beautiful people who have fallen in love with our Lord, Jesus Christ  o Thursday Pastor Damian went with his personal family to the San Geronimo Zanica mission. Nohemi, one of the sisters of this mission had prepared a fancy meal and invited other church friends from other communities to celebrate her birthday. After the beautiful meal, Damian’s wife Rosa greeted everyone and Nohemi’s husband Paul gave some words of encouragement. Then they prayed for Nohemi. She was presented some gifts and Yami and Chalo sang. Pastor Damian preached and Chalo and Yami taught the children. It was a beautiful moment in which all sought and praised the Lord. The Holy Spirit touch hearts, and everyone danced, worshiping the Lord with all their heart. Damian and family took a birthday cake for the celebration and when the program was over they distributed food and clothing to the mission families. So enjoyed going to one of our remote villages. Beautiful people who have fallen in love with our Lord, Jesus Christ!

Merry Christmas from Agape Missions

This has been such a fantastic year for our ministry. God is moving in Oaxaca! I had the privilege of returning to Mexico the first of October for a short visit to many of our missions.
In Lachiguiri I arrived in time for their Gran Fiesta in the Town Center. On the last day of this event, the churches marched down the mountain Shouting JESUS, JESUS and singing with floats etc. It was awe inspiring. Most of the youth of Lachiguiri and the surrounding 16 villages are now born again Christians. WOW!!Pastor Nely led this event where they killed three cows to feed all the guest who came.
The next two days were sponsored by Pastor Pepe's church where our own Israel Lopez was the pastor when we first went to Lachiguiri to translate the Bible. They had two days of conferences. Attendance for both events was great.
Pastor Israel does need our prayer support as the doctors in Oaxaca City said, as a diabetic,  he is anemic and his kidneys are functioning at only 40%. God has provided some funds for his expensive medication. Israel thanks you for your prayers.
On our Coastal ministry, where Pastor Damian is the director, so much has happened in the last couple of months. New missions, Many Bibles given out, expanding of new missions, Youth events, Women's Prayer Warrior conferences, and we are already making plans for the upcoming ministry in the Spring with Children's Ministries and conferences for all our coastal ministries. I hope to take several teams down this coming year.
God protected pastor Damian when he had the back of one of our vehicles loaded with 15 road construction workers he was giving a ride. As they were slowly moving down a steep incline on the mountain the back tire came off the truck rolling down the mountain. God protected all. Earlier that day we had to have new brakes put on. I have a feeling the mechanic didn't get the tire back on securely.
Check out the post below for a short video Chalo, Pastor's son, put together of highlights from some of our recent events with the Children's  ministry, new missions, the Women's Prayer Warrior conferences etc.
