We are excited about this Sunday. We will be accepting new members into our church. We will have 7 people join the church formally. These new members have been attending the church for some time, some were saved and baptized in our church, they have also been discipled in our church. We are excited to receive them into our church family!

We also have another young man who has surrendered to the ministry! He was saved at our church, baptized at our church and he has been serving faithfully. We are excited to see him grow and see how God uses Him!

Thank you for praying for us.

Special Services in Summer

We completed our vacation Bible School in January and had a great attendance! It was encouraging to see members of our church teaching and guiding the classes, many of them for the very first time! We also had our special Vision Service where we unveiled the theme for the year, shared goals for this year, handed out the calendars with the events for the year, and much more. It was an incredible service that set the tone for the coming months!

We continue the summer with 3 special fellowships apart from our normal services. We will be have a men’s fellowship, and women’s fellowship, and a special marriage fellowship. These fellowships are scattered across the month. Each of the three have brought people who are not attending our church in the past. 

We have a young man who is now working at the church during the week. He is one of two men who are in our seminary and are serving in the church. Both young men are growing and we look forward to see how God continues to use them. Thank you for your faithful prayers and support. God is at work in our ministry. 

Serving Together,

Patrick, Leslie, Lily, Piper, Ivy, and Isla Henry 

Prayer Requests

• Pray for our women’s fellowship on February 01.
• Pray for our marriage fellowship on February 15.
• Pray for our men’s fellowship on February 29
• Pray for our special “return to school” service on February 28.

Tomorrow we will hold our last Vacation Bible School service. We were able to review the last lesson with the teacher last night before our midweek service. It is encouraging to see the teachers excited to teach God’s Word to their classes! We are praying to see people saved! Sunday we will have a special fellowship after the evening service. These times are something the church looks forward to!

Prayer Request

• I met a man named Omar. He and I spoke for some time about Jesus, the Christian life, and a few other things. He lives about 10 blocks from the church. I invited him and hope to see him soon! Pray with me that we have another opportunity to talk.
• I was in the home of Leonardo and Alejandra this week. It was the first time I have met them. We were able to talk about Jesus, salvation, and the church. Leonardo may be saved, I am not sure, but based on the conversation I don’t believe Alejandra is. They have a daughter, Shaila, who is 6 years old. She is supposed to come to our VBS service and they all are supposed to come to one of the services on Sunday. Pray for this family.

Today we had our Vacation Bible School. The kids are learning more about the Gospel. Next Saturday will be the final day of VBS. Pray with us that God works in the heart of each child. Tomorrow will be another special day in our church. One of the guys who are training for the ministry will be teaching the verse of the week. We have practiced it several times. I am excited for him. He has done it a couple of times before and I think he is improving! The other young man who is training will be teaching “the three”, an emphasis on a county in the southern zone of Buenos Aires, a province (or a state) in Argentina, and a country in the world. We do this each service to focus on the need around us, around Argentina, and around the world. Both men are serving in the church as they train for the ministry!

We are looking forward to another great day at Faith Baptist Church!
