Musica Cristiano

Good morning friends!

Yesterday was a great day visiting another batey, Altagracia. Monique brought her guitar and connected with the two young men she met last year, Wilson and Manuel. We all sung songs, alternating between English and Spanish versions. They helped us with the songs in Spanish and also wanted to hear them sung in English. It was such a sweet time of sharing. Other young people joined us, hmmm...His church convening spontaneously again. Most of all the people who attend church on Sunday in Altagracia are younger. Manuel told us there are about 13 or so who come regularly. He asked us to pray for his village (batey).

Later we talked about our faith in Christ, living in grace. It was great! Of Course, those of you who know me, I was sharing that we are not only saved by grace, but we live our lives in Christ by grace. We have been made new, in freedom. (TrueFaced) "God is not interested in changing us because He already has."

We talked about spiritual gifts, (dones de es Spiritu) and they knew very little about them and could not tell me if they had a gift or not. Discipleship is so needed here and there is a great desire, among these young people, to know Jesus and all that He has for them. We can't wait to go back to Altagracia soon.

Also, here is a picture of Monique and I with our new friend Daniel Vallon. Daniel is Haitian and lives in Port au Prince. He spent a few days at the Casa with us, as he had reports to turn in to the COTN office of his work. He represents COTN in Haiti and cares for 13 families in Port au Prince. He really wants us to come over there for a couple of days. Please pray with me as it would probably be just me (Vic) going with a couple of other folks. If this is what God wants I'm willing. Monique and the girls would stay here at the Casa.

God Bless You and thanks for your prayers.
