Crosscurrent Student helping in leadership training Belize.

On and on!!! The Cross Current Students from Winkler Bible Camp are back at their sweet homes. These guys worked hard doing children’s camp and physical ministry. They were a great support and encouragement for the children’s camp ministry in Belize. They assisted me with 4 counselors’ training sessions. The most amazing thing they did during these trainings was pass on the excitement of children’s camp to the Belizean Youth.
The students communicated the importance of outreach to children and the excitement that is found in serving Christ. Steven Zacharias my director, says that “it is essential to get the youth excited about camp:,” If you ask me how to get excited, I say that it presences of Holy Spirit that take over the place of meeting. But I saw it happen with the help of Cross Current. I also give credit to Jeff Badman… As the Spiritual leader and teacher of the cross current group, God has really used him to train, disciple and equipped the students. Jeff keep up the good worked!

I found love in serving God through children camp. It is why, I will ask you to please pray that all details would come together before I head up to Canada. Today, I was at Scotiabank for business. I was thinking about all that needs to be done before camp. I then saw an old guy with old T-shirt.

It said these words with a verse. Why do you worry, God is in-control. I was surprised to feel God’s presence through the old mans T-shirt. I will always love my Lord. Remember to come to the Engagement Party @ Winkler Bible Camp. 28 of April at 7:00 p.m.There will be a short program and food. If you are coming and have not responded yet, send me a response or a short email. The big day is coming friend… I am thrilled

Please pray for safe traveling.. through cancun and toronto.. I love you all

Fallow-up program and Cross Current.

Time is going too fast:

Bienaventurados los que …. Con todo el corazon le buscan Palm 119:2.

May the Holy Spirit bring us a fresh reminder what Jesus went through for us. I find it so interesting when I read John 18:1-6, it says, a detachment of soliders and some officials from the chief priests and Pharisees went to arrest Jesus. What does the word detachment mean? It was a group of 300 soldiers, maybe something like the movie 300 And on Verse 18:6 it says that they all fell on the ground. You see how powerful our redeemer is! I watched the passion of Christ but I never got a complete idea of what Christ went through. Yes! The Jesus I serve is more powerful that I ever imagined.

Invite you to pray for these events:

March 25 – April 14 Cross Current helping in youth leadership training joining me in Belize

March 26 – 30 Fallow-up Programs for campers

March 29, April 3, 11, 12 Counselor training

April 3 Belize Children Camps Board meeting (pray 4 the board making wise decision)

April 19 Bring 4 youth group together planning for summer camp

April 20 Found Raiser

April 24 Traveling to Canada to see my Princess

May 31 Getting Married to the Wettlaufer family…

There are more things taking place but these will help to accomplish the others. Pray for the structuring of the youth groups. God has been making beautiful things happen while training these youth. They have poured out their hearts and troubles. March 29, 5 youth will start writing material for fallow-up camping programs. This how committed these guys are to the ministry.

The neighborhood where we are working. I was meeting with a group of 5 youth at St Andrew church on the south side of Belize the other week. During our session, seven gun shots were fired on the other side of the church. These youth are all trained so that they all lie on the ground as the gun shot were fire. One brave young Lady by the name of Nicole did not lie on the floor. We all taught she was the brave one, but we found out after that she taught it was firecracker. Please pray for our safety.
