Prayer Request 4/25/08

Co-laborers in Christ: Greetings in Jesus’ name. Please join our Lord in what He is doing in Venezuela through concerted prayer.

Joyce and I will be joining Isrrael Rodriquez and Carlos Fuentes in church multiplication training in Porte Ayacucho on the edge of the Venezuelan rain forest May 1 – 4. One of our simple church advocates there has reached many of the tribesmen of the indigenous people of the Amazons. He is bringing them together for three days of training.

May 7-8 we will be meeting with leaders of a nation wide evangelical church-planting group. I spent some time with some of them earlier this year. They are excited to learn more of the simple ways of church multiplication. Omar Pina is the national coordinator.

May 13-15 we will be meeting with evangelical pastors and workers in and near Merida, which is one of the major cities of VZ. Ladimiro Urdaneta is our key servant leader. He is a national leader in Baptist circles and he is head of the language department of the University of the Andes at Merida.

There will be many other meetings between these. Our hope is to continue the encouragement of simple church multiplication through out the nation. Great strides have been made but the battle continues. Thanks for your support of prayer. Satan laughs at many of our attempts to minister but when we pray he trembles.

Your brother, gail.
