When I was in the Dominican Republic with Candy in December, Pastor Apolinaria had started a new church in a remote mountain area. She had about 6 members. We had a service in this new church and there were 24 people in church and over half of them were small children under the age of 8. The church is a small building with a dirt floor. We read the Word of God by a flashlight. They are going to start visiting all the local homes to invite everybody in their area to the services. Instead of having one service per week they are going to have 4 services per week. Because of the price of the gas, the pastor cannot always be at the service but his assistant is building a house right next to the church, so he will be there to lead the congregation. We brought several Bibles for the new Christians in this church tonight.
We had sent down a request to have a meeting in the school in Pastor Apolinaria´s village, because one of the sisters with us, Sister Evie is an evangelistic and she does youth meetings in many churches in the U.S.A. All the teenagers were gathered with the teachers outside which was about 175 people all together. She ministered and gave personal testimony, most of the youth were listening carefully to every word she said because she was talking to them right where they were living. She had each person pray for their salvation and then God witnessed to us that many asked Him in their heart. The young girls started to gather around her and ask her questions after the meeting.
God bless you!
