Our Upcoming Friend Day

June was an incredible month with special days at both churches, but the highlight was the 3rd anniversary of Hope Baptist Church, it was an exciting service and the Lord worked in the hearts of those who attended. We also celebrated Father’s Day with our first “Pancakes with Dad” breakfast before the service. It also was a special service and something we plan on doing each year. We have also continued the English Classes as an evangelistic outreach and we have had people visit the church because of the classes! Missionary Robbie Prater has done a great job with the classes and we hope to see people saved as a result this month! We had our men’s fellowship meeting and our pastor’s fellowship meeting as well in June. Pastor Matías and I both preached in the pastor’s fellowship and I believe it was a blessing to all who attended!

Friend Day is our special event this month at Hope Baptist Church. This will be an opportunity to invite friends and family to a special service (Friend Day is an actual celebrated day in Argentina). Thank you for praying for the ministry in Argentina.

One of the highlights of this past month was the English Classes that were started at Hope Baptist Church. In the English Classes we share the Gospel with the students, the classes include people who do not attend the church, and are hearing the Gospel for the first time. Please pray that the Lord continues to use the classes to bring people to Jesus.

This month we will be celebrating the third anniversary of Hope Baptist Church. The church is growing, christians are growing, and we have seen people saved! We are looking forward to celebrating the church’s anniversary and continue to work to reach the lost and disciple the saved. This month will also be a milestone for Hope Baptist Church. We will have our first two believers complete our discipleship program. They will complete all the lessons, they will have memorized over 25 Bible verses, and have written out the books of 1 John and Mark word for word. They are engaged in evangelism and are already discipling others, we are grateful for the milestones we are seeing in the ministry! Thank you for praying for the ministry God has given us!

A New Pastor Ordained and an Anniversary Service

We had a blessed month of April in the ministry. Our Pastor, Derik Lawrence, came with his wife and our missions director to be a part of the ordination council and service of Pastor Matías. This was our first time ordaining a man in the ministry God has given us and it was a great blessing. Both Matías, his family, Faith Baptist Church, and Leslie and I were blessed by the ordination service. Pastor, Mrs. Lawrence, and our mission director were also a great blessing to our family, we were encouraged by their visit! Our Pastor was also able to preach at our pastors’ fellowship, and at both Faith and Hope Baptist Churches. Faith Baptist Church also celebrated their eighth anniversary, which fell on Easter Sunday. I am thankful for how the Lord continues to work in the ministry at Faith and how the Lord is using Pastor Matías and the other believers in the church!

We continue the ministry this month with a few special events, Leslie will be teaching at a ladies fellowship, we will also be starting English Classes as an evangelistic tool in Hope Baptist Church. Missionary Robbie Prater will be teaching the classes. God continues to bless His work and we are grateful!

A Special Ordination Service

March was an exciting month with special activities, one young man was saved and another discipleship was started! We are getting closer to the goal of having those who we are discipling, start to disciple others! Our evangelism and discipleship ministries are fundamental parts of the church’s growth!

This month we will have another “first” in the ministry, we will be ordaining Pastor Matías Ghiette. Matías has been trained under the ministry God has given us and he is currently pastoring Faith Baptist Church in Lanús. Our Pastor, Derik Lawrence will be visiting along with one of our assistant pastors to take part in the ordination service. They will be a great blessing to both Pastor Matías and the churches. 

Faith Baptist Church will also be celebrating their 8th anniversary. We are grateful for the souls saved, christians discipled, and lives changed through the ministry. We have seen young people, meet, fall in love, and get married through the Faith Baptist Church! It is an exciting ministry and we believe her best days are ahead! Thank you for your faithful prayers and support.
