New Discipleship Relationships and a Couples Fellowship

The highlight of June was the fourth anniversary of Hope Baptist Church. We enjoyed the special services and the fellowship that followed. Over the past four years, we have seen people saved, baptized, and discipled. The church continues to grow, and it is a testimony of God’s faithfulness and goodness.

We also had a great turnout for our Father’s Day service, which began with a “Pancakes with Dad” breakfast. The church family enjoyed the special time of fellowship before the morning service. In addition, we completed another semester of Bible College classes, which are scheduled to resume in August. We also started two new one-on-one discipleship relationships and are hoping to begin a third in the coming month.

One of the events I am most looking forward to in July is our couples fellowship. This fellowship will provide an opportunity to encourage and strengthen the couples in the church. We will also be holding a special Argentine Independence Day service on July 12. We are trusting God to bless the day in a special way.

At the end of the month, we will observe the Lord’s Supper. Pastor Brian will be leading the ordinance for the first time, pray for him as he continues to grow and to serve the church family.

In Christ,

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

The Forth Anniversary of Hope Baptist Church

We are grateful for the many blessings the Lord has provided during the month of May. Elisa recently trusted Christ as her Savior. She was baptized last month and will soon begin discipleship. We also traveled to the United States for a few weeks, and we are thankful for Pastor Brian, who faithfully guided Hope Baptist Church in my absence. In addition, both Pastor Matías and Pastor Brian taught the Bible College classes and did an excellent job. We praise the Lord for His continued work in the ministry.

As we look ahead, we are anticipating several ministry opportunities in the coming month. One highlight will be the Pastor’s Fellowship at Faith Baptist Church, a quarterly gathering that brings together pastors from La Plata and Buenos Aires. I will also have the privilege of preaching at the Family Conference hosted by Faith Baptist Church. Pastor Matías continues to serve the church family faithfully, and I look forward to ministering alongside him.

We are especially thankful to celebrate the fourth anniversary of Hope Baptist Church this month. We have witnessed the Lord saving souls, establishing believers through discipleship, and raising up individuals to serve within the ministry. We are confident that this is only the beginning of what God will continue to do.

Thank you for your faithful prayers and generous support. Your partnership in the ministry is a continual encouragement to us.

In Christ,

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

Growing and Serving

We had a very busy and blessed month of April. We had missionary friends visiting with us who challenged Hope Baptist Church and its leadership to serve the Lord faithfully. We also held our first young men’s retreat, celebrated Easter, and rejoiced as Faith Baptist Church marked its ninth anniversary. One of the ladies at Hope Baptist Church taught her first Bible class lesson last month, and one of the young men assisted me in teaching the men’s class. Our one-on-one discipleship meetings are also ongoing. I am discipling Israel, and even in the short time we have met together, I have seen the Lord working in his life.

Hope Baptist Church is growing. Pastor Brian is doing an excellent job as my assistant and is actively helping others become involved in serving the Lord together as a church family. We will be in the States for a few weeks this month for a family wedding. During that time, Pastor Brian will be leading the church in my absence, while Pastor Matías continues to faithfully pastor Faith Baptist Church. I am so thankful to the Lord for how He is raising up leaders who are faithfully serving!

The ministry continues, and we are grateful. Thank you for praying for us!

Serving Together,

The Ninth Anniversary of Faith Baptist Church

March has been a busy month, and during this time we have seen God at work in the lives of both young and maturing believers. A young lady was baptized at Hope Baptist Church, two believers began discipleship, two new Bible classes started, and the church participated in the Lord’s Supper for the first time in its history! In addition, the latest semester of our Bible College has begun with four students. It has truly been an exciting month in the ministry.

The most significant event this month is the ninth anniversary of Faith Baptist Church. Pastor Matías has been doing an excellent job leading and caring for the church. At the beginning of April, we will be holding a youth retreat with six young men attending. We will travel to Mar del Plata (about four hours away), where we will focus on strengthening our walk with Jesus. Please pray for this special retreat—that God would work in the life of each young man.

Pray for our special Easter service, as it provides an excellent opportunity for our young church to invite others to celebrate the hope we have in Christ through His resurrection. Thank you for praying for us!

Serving together,

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