Mission Trip to Segovia

Over spring break in CPN our first year students went out and did missions in 3 different cities- Segovia, La Guajira, and Manantiales. Here is a summary of the team from Segovia:




The team that went to Segovia was able to work in unity throughout the whole trip. God was so faithful in bringing them together, providing above and beyond what they had budgeted for, and making divine connections with the people they were ministering to. This team is now like family!











The first 2 days they served in the local churches in Segovia. In these churches all the women must be in skirts and that was very different for many of them, but it was a good experience. Many of the students were able to step out and preach for the first time!
The team went to an indigenous community called La Po for three days and did some workshops on inner healing with the kids, women, and men. They said that the community received them with so much love and compassion and they felt at home there. God really showed them that His love has no borders- in the midst of new people and new places, God surrounded them with family.

There was a boy in the community whose left eye was deformed and blind. The team prayed for him and God restored his sight!!



The last few days they did a camp for the youth in a farm and had workshops on inner healing as well as lots of competitions. All of the games they did had a Biblical lesson and the teens were able to learn, interact, and have fun!


“All of you together are Christ’s body, and each of you is a part of it.”
  1 Corinthians 12:27

Tired Of Fighting Alone?

Image
How are YOU doing... today ?   As a result of the pandemic situation, many people have found themselves fighting some type of battle - and many of them were fighting all ALONE.   IN OUR CASE ...   the Lord had us start the project for the Christian School about 4 years ago.  There are a lot of people affected by the project and many families counting on it for their children.  Last week, we got to a point where it looked like it would be impossible to see the fulfillment of that project.  It looked like it could be finished.  We want to share some ideas on how we were able to walk through the despair of feeling like we were about to lose everything.  1.  PEACE -  Recently I (Jerry) caught myself in "just hang on and survive" gear... but God got in my face and reminded us that He LEADS me by His peace .  Satan wants to DRIVE us compulsively , but God wants to DRAW us compassionately .  I know it sounds too simple, but the Bible tells us; " Don't worry about anything

NEW YEAR... NEW YOU !!!

I think it was Einstein who wrote this famous quote: “ Insanity is doing the same thing over and over  and expecting different results .” Most of the Christians I know, and I include myself,…don’t want 2023 to be just a repeat of 2022. They want “more”… more clarity in hearing His voice, more of His incomparable presence , more “ heaven ” in their day to day life! If that’s you, I want to encourage you with 5 suggestions that WORK for us. Following Einstein’s advice; if we want to see changes, we need to make changes. Expect enemy attacks If you’ve decided to follow Jesus… you have “changed teams” from following the world’s ways to committing yourself to allowing God to lead you. Don’t expect “sunshine” all the time. Pull up your boot-straps and jump into the battle! Attacks are coming!… expect them & be prepared! 👊 Pray Daily According to a survey by the Pew Research Center, fewer than half of U.S. adults pray daily … “forgetting to pray is like forgetting to bre
