The seeds are beginning to grow!!!

Favian, 12 years old has attended the daycare for a year. Most of the time we don’t know if the seeds we plant ever blossom outside of the daycare, but Glory to God they have!!! Favian’s mom has told us that he has been teaching her and his cousins how to pray at home. And he has helped his brother pray through bad dreams. His mother is now attending our weekly Bible Study. Thank God for all of you who plant seeds into Open Arms.

Additionally our little baby Samaria is now six months old. She is rolling over, sitting up, and she loves to show off her two front teeth.  She is so blessed and she is a wonderful blessing to our lives. Three times this last month Samaria was prophesied over and it was said that she would be a Pastor one day. Praise the Lord!!! God is already revealing the amazing plans he has for our little girl.

In other news, two of our workers, Griselda and Maricela started their own Bible study in one of their homes. They not only minister to the kids at the daycare but to the women of the community, as well. Last summer we remodeled Maricela’s home when her and her three children were living in a one-room house. Now, this house is being used to share the love of God to the others in La Mision!!!

Also the children’s church every Wednesday has taken off and the kids love it. We are expecting God to do big things during these services.

Additionally every Wednesday morning, Miriam, holds a Bible study at her home. The Bible study is now over 25 women every week. And, many of the mom’s at the daycare are requesting an hour off of work to attend. Furthermore, every Friday night there is a Youth Bible study here at the daycare for about 10- 15 youth in the community. Cynthia, who is Miriam’s daughter hold’s her own study in a safe place where youth can come and fellowship. Last Friday several new youth came to the service, and many gave their lives to the Lord!!! Pray with us that these ministries continue to flourish and that more come to know the love of Christ.
