An Amazing Sunday


Our team was so blessed by the warm welcome and hospitality of the First Baptist Church of Bucaramanga! 


We had a great morning worshipping together with this church, spending time in prayer and  growing together in God’s Word. 


The Pastor and his wife both recently had birthdays so, after church we participated in a time of celebration for the pastor and his family. 



Complete with a live band singing “Happy Birthday” and many other songs of celebration for this special family in this church!


Later on Sunday, we were able to go through all of the clothing, shoes and supplies we brought for the church’s “Touch of Life” outreach ministry that will go to Venezuelan immigrants and others from the community in the days ahead! 


Our Sunday ended with a dinner of empanadas and cheese...and time in God’s Word. We are so thankful for the day the Lord has given us today! And thank you for your prayers as we go to the Samaritan Purse Refuge tomorrow!

Kids are kids everywhere and these children don’t have much opportunity to just be kids. This is the view from the front of the church where a line had formed for the evening worship service which is followed by a meal. Another full house! We were excited to share our “Emotions” skit with them. Many raised there hands and prayed to receive Christ during this service...PTL! Our day ended with a short outing to the historic town of Girón. It was s great time to enjoy some of the history and be
