Prayer Letter - June 2008
Santuario
Familiar Bautista in Managua celebrated the 5th anniversary 01'
the church on May 18. One Of the testimonies shared was by don
Francisco Flores. He came in the very first campaign because his
four year old son was excited about the children's ministry. He
kept coming for his son and accepted Christ as his Savior.
Through the years, don Francisco has become a leader within the
men of the church. He is head usher, leads up Impacto - a soul
wining visitation program, and is an avid discipler. A
passionate student of the Word, don Francisco has been
instrumental in leading many to the Lord and encouraging other
men to become involved in God's work. He has preached in
many of our churches and looks forward to many more years
serving the Lord. And his son? Cesar is a leader among the
children, one Of the best at memory work in Oanso (Awana),
already finishing one book and working on the next. Thank God
for "a little child" who has a real impact on the work in
Managua.

May has been
a busy month at Santuario Farmiliar Bautista in Masaya. They
celebrated their 3rd anniversary in the building along the
Masaya Highway and the 15th birthday of Pastor Gustavo Gaitan's
daughter, Raquel, on the 11th. May 25th was the celebration for
Mother's Day with 15 proud mothers surrounded by their families.
The ladies and men's groups had a competition to see who could
have the highest attendance and the winner would serve up a
delicious Nica style dinner. The ladies met the 27th with a bi~
to-do for mothers and daughters. With rainy season beginning, we
were excited fo have our high attendance or 21 with 3 ladies for
the first time! The men met Thursday with a category I hurricane
hitting~ the west coast and the city of Leon. They went out hnd
"forced" them to come in. Although there looked like no hope,
the men came through and won with 29, which is their best
attendance as well, and many visitors. The last day of May
brought out some of the best news or the month - 3 teens
accepted Christ in youth group! Donna with Pastor Gustavo and his wife Norma |
