Be The Change

Chiquimula,
Guatemala
Central America

Dear Partners,
 
As this summer draws to a close and the fall harvest time approaches we are so thankful for you, together we have helped those who are anxiously awaiting the crops this fall.  The hunger season this year has been a particularly tough one for the villagers, but with your love, prayers, and partnership we were able to bring relief to many.  It has been a great month, many things accomplished for the Lord.  Time and time again you have been so faithful to pray for the work here, to give of yourselves, even when things have been challenging for you, you gave.  Great is your reward in Heaven.  We want to thank you for standing with us, shoulder to shoulder in the spirit.  This month it is not just Marla and I saying thank you but the families of the villages also. Words always fail to express what we feel in our hearts, how do you articulate love, gratitude, appreciation, and so much more?  Since a picture is worth a thousand words, then perhaps the only way is with pictures of the lives that you helped us touch.  Please read this newsletter with the full assurance that together WE ARE THE CHANGE!

Starvation Annihilation
Bulk Food Give away!
The month the starvation season hit very hard and so many children were taken to the hospital with severe malnutrition.  A combination of last year's severe drought, erratic rainfall, high food prices and a sharp drop in remittances amid the global economic crisis has weakened Guatemala's fragile food supply and left thousands of families too destitute to buy enough food.

So we launched "Starvation Annihilation" And it was a huge success!  We raised enough money to keep from closing our 2 centers that we had lost funds to maintain, and also enough to take bulk food to the families of 5 villages. We gave close to ONE TON OF FOOD away!!


Please take time to watch the video to the left and see the remarkable images of the faces and lives that you touched!

You rose to the challenge and put us over the top!


We are the change!

Jalapa Mountain wide Rally 2010
Almost 200 in attendance!
The Jalapa Mountain Wide Rally 2010 was the first of many mountain wide rallies to come!  With close to 120 churches built, and more going up each year it is difficult to find the time to visit them all.  So we have put into action "Mountain Wide Rallies" that pull all of our 100 club churches from any given mountain together for a day of preaching, prayer, fellowship and yes.....eating! 

What a blessing to see the trucks begin to arrive and all of the precious people entering the house of the Lord with joy on their faces and in their hearts!  Together we preached and prayed and rejoiced and cried!  The presence of the Lord was so tender and sweet as children as well as adults worshiped the one true and living God!

We rejoiced in victories and mourned as we heard how one sister had nothing to feed her family--so she went and gathered mushrooms to cook.  Two of her three children died that day.  It was a time of strengthening and encouragement, a time for a good solid word to take them through to the victory.  We look forward to many more "Mountain Wide rallies" to come!
