Outreach in Guayabo
I wanted to give you all a quick update on our time with Giovani Rojas, a pastor out in Guayabo de Mora, Costa Rica.
A few of us from church went out to meet with Giovani on Saturday. It’s about an hour west from San José, up and over the mountains (beautiful country). We had a great time of fellowship with Giovani and his wife, Laura. They have a fairly new work (about a year old) and have just moved into a new building in center of their small town (population: 5,000). They have a desire to not only reach their town, but to also be a blessing to the even smaller towns surrounding them — they hope to work with local pastors in evangelism, encouragement, etc.
We are going to be teaming up with Giovani on Friday, February 19th, for an area-wide outreach activity. They have a beautiful, newly renovated public park that we are going to use. The idea is to have some music and other activities to draw in the folks from town, and in then share with them the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We’ll be spending the better part of the day going door-to-door inviting people, both in town and in the surrounding area. Then around 6:00 p.m. we’ll get the activity in the park started.
Obviously, we covet your prayers, specifically for the following:
- That we would be faithful to sow much seed preaching the Gospel to every creature (Mark 16.15).
- That God would bless us with much fruit through the preaching of the Gospel (1Cor 1.18, 21; Rom 10.17).
- That pastor Giovani would be open to establishing a biblical discipleship ministry in order to establish his people in the faith (2Tim 2.2; Php 4.9).
Thank you! ~Greg
