The past several weeks have been filled with remarkable testimonies of God’s faithfulness as the mission work in Cuba and Colombia continues to grow. We are grateful for every prayer, every offering, and every partnership that makes this work possible.

A Miracle in Cuba: A Propane Tank 


Thanks to the offering designated for Cuba (provided by WOW), we were able to purchase a propane gas tank for Nesty and Adis. While it may seem like a small thing, this tank—larger than the ones typically used for backyard grills—has completely changed their daily life. The tank was delivered safely, and now this precious couple can cook regular meals and enjoy a cup of coffee whenever they want. In Cuba’s current conditions, this is a tremendous blessing and a powerful expression of God’s love.


Evangelism in Colombia: A New Church Plant and a Mighty Harvest

Recently, we ministered in a new start up church in Colombia, and the response was nothing short of miraculous. Under a small tent covering, around sixty people—adults and children—received Jesus as Lord. The pastors, who are part of the Assemblies of God under Pastor Alcides (who oversees 27 mission churches), had spent the weekend preparing the neighborhood. On Saturday, they handed out invitations door to door. Then on Sunday morning, they walked the streets with a portable sound system, announcing the service and offering a free tamale to every visitor.
Their faithfulness produced a beautiful harvest. We were able to bless the church with adult and children’s Bibles, sowing the Word into this new congregation that is already growing in strength.

Into the Jungle: Vichada, Colombia


Earlier this month, Lee traveled to Vichada, Colombia for a five day mission deep in the jungle. The team ministered in three different indigenous communities—each with its own language. The Jesus Film was shown in the language of each group. The results were powerful.

The first night, in the first jungle community, everyone who watched the Jesus Film received Jesus and the Holy Spirit. The team then traveled to the next community to continue the work. These moments remind us that the gospel is alive, active, and reaching even the most remote places.


Preparing for Brazil

Preparations are underway for the upcoming mission to Brazil. During the first week, the team will preach five times, and plans for the second week are being finalized. Since this is our first time ministering in Brazil, new challenges come with the territory—especially the language barrier. Translators will assist by translating from English to Portuguese, making ministry flow smoothly. We are believing for a powerful move of God as we step into this new field.

Thank You for Supporting the End Time Harvest

We believe there will be a great harvest of souls and many divine healings. And truly, that is what we are witnessing—souls saved, hearts healed, and the gospel reaching places where hope has been scarce.

Your prayers and support are making an eternal difference. From Cuba to Colombia to Brazil, the light of Jesus is shining brightly. Together, we are helping fulfill the Great Commission and preparing hearts for the soon return of our Lord.
