Mother’s Day

We had the opportunity to spend Mother’s Day with Alvin MBC, it was a wonderful time, and I was thankful to share a message from 2 Timothy 1:5. I am very thankful for the opportunity to Celebrate Lourdes, she has worked so hard to keep Emilia’s and my lives as normal and consistent as possible over the last year and a half of deputation travel. After church  we were invited to join Bro. Hugh Roth and his wife Allison on a beach picnic. We are thankful for their encouragement and hospitality.



“When I call to remembrance the unfeigned faith that is in thee, which dwelt first in the grandmothers Louis, and thy mother Eunice and I am persuaded that in thee also.” 2 Timothy 1:5

Graduation

As I mentioned in our March Report, we completed all four modules of MTM (Missionary Training Ministry) and pending completing the required readings we would be graduating with an Associates in Missions from the Missionary Baptist Seminary in May. Good News! We finished! We are thankful for this experience and were glad to celebrate together. This was certainly a family effort as Lourdes and I both went through the training together and each read all of the books. We are thankful for our daughter’s patience and flexibility with us as we finished these books. Bro. Chase Reynolds the MTM Director and his wife Kelly were there to celebrate with us and Bro. Chase presented our Diplomas to us. We were also thankful to have my parents, my great-aunt and my former pastor Kenny Roberson and his wife Amy there to support us at graduation.




Recruiting?!

While presenting at Gethsemane MBC in El Dorado where I have some family and many friends I opened up for questions and 12 year old Finley Patterson raised his hand with the question,“Can I Go with You?” My answer, “Absolutely!” I thank God for childlike faith that leads to eagerness.  Whether him or others pray with me that the Lord of the Harvest would call more laborers unto his harvest. Through deputation I have reminded people of these three ways to support us 1. Pray, 2. Go 3. Give. Many have prayed and given to get us to this point and I am very thankful for that. As we prepare to move this summer we still will need both, but we also look forward to visits from those that are praying for and supporting us. Please pray about visiting us and seeing the place God has called us too.

JESUS was calling, and he just said YES!

After a lot of prayer and years of discernment our dear friend Joel Cosme announced his call for the ministry the last August. “ And the Lord came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.” 1 Samuel 3:10 Our family has known Bro. Joel for more than a decade, Lourdes got to know him at church when both of them where in college.    In her late teens, they went to the same college, she studied Corporate Communications and he studied Systems Engineering. I got to meet him and his now wife in my first trip to Peru in August of 2015, since that trip he has shared with me about his time in Utah, and how this state had a special place in his life. This just makes us think how special the month of August is becoming in our lives. In December of 2023, when I felt God was leading our family to be church planters in the State of Utah, I began to pray for a family that could go with us. Bro. Joel and his family came imme...

Preparing for Transition

Image
September was an encouraging and edifying month. We were ministered to at each church we visited. We visited: The Refuge Baptist Church Plainfield, IN - Pastors Jonathan Woodring and Cody Right. Madison Ave Missionary Baptist Church Kentwood, MI - Pastor Nate Lowe. Hyde Park Baptist Church West Monroe, LA - Pastor Trey Emory. September looks slower but God did as much this month as he’s been doing all along. We started out with The Refuge Baptist in Plainfield. We participated in their   Share your Story   series where we were interviewed about what brought us to a point of realizing that God was leading us to Utah. It was a wonderful time to share with them, we are thankful for the Woodring family for their support throughout our Marriage and my ministry. We went the following week to Kentwood, MI, and had a wonderful time there with Bro. Nate Lowe and his church. The week prior to this visit my wife Lourdes had a death in her family. She was unable to travel to Peru and be w...

Partnership and Connections

July was a busy and encouraging month full of fellowship and new friendships. We visited two churches in Michigan. Then we got to spend a weekend with our sending Church and celebrate two baptisms, ahead of 6 weeks of travel. Half way through the month, my in-laws arrived from Peru and my Pastor joined me in driving to Chicago to welcome them and pick them up. Not only are we glad that they are here with us for the next several weeks but they are also a great help when traveling with a toddler. We are thankful for their willingness to help! During my trip out west they were a great help to my wife. We are thankful to our church and pastor for the special effort they did in making them feel welcome by having a bilingual service their first Sunday here. In July I had the opportunity to visit: Calvary Missionary Baptist Church in South Haven, MI - Pastor Larry Phillips. First Missionary Baptist Church in Buchanan, MI - Pastor Waymond Bond. Sheridan First Baptist Church in Sheridan, IN (VB...
