Sucre

I am in Sucre at the moment, it is a beautiful city with many needs. I was able to go to a “hora Feliz” (Happy hour). I met a pastor in the morning and I was invited to go in the afternoon. What happens is, the pastor and another lady will go right out into the country. It is in the middle of nowhere, there is a concrete football court where many of the children congregate. So what they usually do is take some footballs and play football for an hour. Then after they have the opportunity to share the gospel.

These children have never heard the gospel so it is like starting from a clean slate. I have heard that the parents are not too bothered with what we have to say. It is such a great opportunity to share the gospel. Because the kids dont have much to do they sometimes get up for 50-60 kids come to play and hear what they have to say.

It took an hour to get there on the back of a very bumpy truck ride, but it really was worth it.  I really feel that God will do a great thing through this work and hopefully someday a church will be planted here through the work of these people.
