Greetings Dear Brothers:

This month has a been a blessing in all the things that God has allowed us to be involved in.

In regards to the evangelism ministry, thanks to God, we have been exhorted by Him, to preach more and more of Christ, and Him crucified.  Among all the many circumstances that we are dealing with, we have the great desire to know more of the Scriptures and especially about Theology, but we have to very careful to understand that the power of God is not in all of that, but in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  It is a challenge for us to remain focused in Christ, in prayer and in the power of the Holy Spirit in all of our evangelism efforts. When we do things in this way we see the salvation of The Lord in might and glory.

The preaching in the park continues steady, on Wednesdays and Fridays, where some brothers and sisters go in the afternoon, and some in the evening. Many of them have already been called as open air preachers, and this is a great joy in our hearts, because we know it is the work of God in them.

The ministry on the internet is bearing much fruit (www.enlospasosdelmaestro.com). We receive more and more e-mails every week from brothers and sisters who are already preaching the gospel, or getting trained for evangelism through our School of Evangelism. We are totally amazed at how many people are getting motivated for the proclamation of Christ´s glorious gospel. To Him be the glory!

Also, this month, and after two months of praying and seeking God´s will, the Church of The Savior has elected me as one of her pastors. This is a great blessing for me and a great responsibility too.  I had already become involved in counseling brothers who are in need and also in visiting some of them and praying for all of them. Among the new things that God is placing in my heart to do is the teaching and preaching in our brothers and sisters´ homes.  The purpose of this is that our church may get involved in inviting their relatives, neighbors, etc, to Bible studies where they can listen to the gospel and know The Lord. We have already begun with two groups, one in the north of Lima (San Martin de Porres), and the other in the south of Lima (San Juan de Miraflores). Please pray for all of this, and for us to be able to  feed the flock, being examples to them (1 Peter 5:2-3).

Our family is very well, needing more than ever of the power and grace of God in our lives. Please pray for the salvation of our kids and pray for us, that we may be an example of a godly family by the grace of God, and for His honor and glory.

Thanks for everything that The Lord has called you to do, and for the provision that God gives us through you, for the extension of God´s kingdom in the earth.

In Christ,

Alfonso N.
