Capillo, Chapel!

I wanted to share with everyone about last night's chapel service. It was incredible and the Holy Spirit was definitely moving among us. The presence of God filled the place! After jamming to some awesome worship, (go KP!!!), a student shared his testimony. He shared how he was shot in the chest by a local gang member when he was just seven years old. He explains that he was hanging out with the wrong crowd, at the wrong place, at the wrong time. He recovered completely and gave his life to Jesus as a result of that phase in his life. Praise Jesus! The boys listened intently as he, now 13, described a new life and a new group of friends. We also had a testimony from one of our group members. Mark was bringin' down the house making the boys laugh about some moments of his childhood. But bottom line, these two testimonies stirred something in the hearts of many boys. When the gospel was presented and an invitation to trust Jesus as the personal Lord and Savior, 14 boys stepped forward!!! Amen and amen. The USA team then did some serious laying of hands and praying over these precious new brother's in Christ. It was an all out party in there as we ended with one more rockin' praise song. And...get ready, it's only Tuesday. These boys will be in a constant relationship with their mentors and mentors' churches when they go home, but we wanted to list their names so you could pray personally for these young believers.

Marco Galvez, Denis Franelsco, Mynor Flores, Johan Flores, Alberto Figueros, Jose Andres Carrillo, Byron Reyes, Josue Ramos, Kevin Alexander, Fernando Morales, Oscar Torres, Marvil Galvez, Donaldo Pereira, Federico Aguilar.

Your prayers are greatly appreciated as you follow us on this journey.
