Again, thanks for your continued prayers. Here are some highlights of the past couple of months.
Argentina and Brazil
In September, I accompanied my Hispanics for Christ (HFC) colleagues to Salta, where we visited/collaborated with our partners the Gallos and the Vargas at their Bible training institute (ESEF). Three additional ministry leaders from Oregon joined us in reaching out to people struggling with addiction, and their families. We also traveled together with our Salta friends to Porto Alegre, Brazil, where we met with church leaders from Uruguay (and a Venezuelan Spanish-speaking church in Porto Alegre). Our friends from Salta and HFC shared on church planting movements, and our other friends visited prisons and halfway houses to share on overcoming addictions.Hungary and Serbia
A few weeks later, in October, our MEK annual board meeting took place, in person AND virtually (some of our board members had contracted COVID while traveling to Albania) in Hatvan, Hungary. And I also had meetings and collaboration with the board of ZZ Serbia and their director Marijana Cizmanski in Novi Sad, Serbia. I also had the chance to visit ZZ Serbia’s primary ministry site: the Roma/Gypsy village of Donje Petrovski. All of these meetings are part of my emerging field director responsibilities in Hungary and Serbia.
Many opportunities continue to emerge for churches interested in integral, long-term (sister-church) partnership in many areas of the world. It’s a way for your congregation to truly collaborate on a global, kingdom scale.
