Bible Classes and Mother’s Day

We enjoyed seeing many wonderful things take place throughout the month, including a Pastor’s Fellowship and our annual Family Photo Day. We are grateful to see how God continues to work in Hope Baptist Church.

Faith Baptist Church also had a wonderful month, including a special youth event with two other churches. Pastor Matías is doing a great job leading and serving the church. The church is growing, young Christians are growing in their faith, and they are sharing the Gospel with others.

We also hosted a Pastor’s Fellowship at Hope Baptist Church, with several pastors from the greater Buenos Aires and La Plata areas in attendance. These fellowships are a great opportunity to encourage other pastors as they continue to serve the Lord. We seek to be a blessing through the fellowship itself, the preaching of God’s Word, providing Bible materials they can use in their local churches, and offering special events. For example, we are planning a marriage retreat for pastors in February, which we believe will be a great blessing to those who are able to attend.

The highlight of October will be Mother’s Day. We will begin the morning with a church-wide breakfast. This is something we started last year, and it has quickly become something the church family looks forward to each year. We will also continue our Bible Classes. We are offering two classes this quarter: the men’s class is studying the life of Moses, while the ladies’ class is studying the grace of God as demonstrated in the lives of specific men and women in the Bible. These classes provide opportunities for others to use their gifts as they teach and serve.

Thank you for your faithful prayers and support. We are truly grateful for each of you and thankful that we have the privilege of serving together to reach others with the Gospel.

In Christ,

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

New Bible Classes and Family Photo Day

We had a wonderful month of ministry in August, with the highlights being our Kids’ Festival and Kids’ Day. We had over 100 people come through the Kids’ Festival! A supporting church from the States came to serve alongside us, and they were a tremendous blessing. Both the Kids’ Festival and Kids’ Day were a great success, and we are thankful for all that the Lord did through these special events.

We were also able to begin the new semester at the Bible College. The students are excited to continue learning, growing, and serving in the ministry!

We have two highlight events planned for this month. One is our annual Family Photo Day, which is a great opportunity to invite family members to church who normally do not attend. We will also begin our spring-quarter Bible classes. The men’s series will focus on the life of Moses, while the women’s series will focus on stories of grace throughout the Bible. These classes will begin this month and continue through December.

We also have a Pastors’ Fellowship planned for this month. We are hosting this meeting to encourage our pastors, as well as other pastors from throughout the greater Buenos Aires area. We hold these meetings once a quarter, and we believe they are a great blessing and encouragement to all who attend.

Thank you for praying for us and for faithfully supporting the ministry. We are grateful to be serving and working together with you for God’s glory.

In Christ,

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

New Semester of Bible College and Kid’s Day

Great things are coming up, and we rejoice over what God has done last month. The highlight of July was the young ladies retreat, it was a time where Leslie and other ladies of the church were able to serve and encourage the teenage girls who are attending Hope Baptist Church. This is the second year they have done the retreat and it has become something special. The retreat was in Mar del Plata, a coastal city in Argentina. I am thankful for how the Lord worked in the hearts of those who were able to attend! We have several special events this month, including “Kid’s Day” which will start off with a “Kid’s Festival” the day before. We have a supporting church who will be serving in these special days. We also will begin the new semester of the Bible College. We have four students enrolled and each one is growing in knowledge and serving in their church! We have six classes this semester, please pray for the students as they continue to prepare for the ministry.  We have two new discipleship relationships starting this month and we are excited about it! We currently have four people who are enrolled in our discipleship ministry, please pray for them as God continues to work in their lives. Thank you for your faithful prayers and support, we are grateful for you! In Christ, Patrick, Leslie, Lily, Piper, Ivy, and Isla Henry

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
