much neededUpdate from Tino and Nelda

Thank you, Bright Hope World, for your prayers. With your support today we were able to realize our work with the purpose of helping the last school in the country, 4 Viento, in the municipality of Macharety, Dep. De Chuquisaca.

Brothers you are part of this ministry. We do not arrive empty-handed; we arrive with the Gospel and support for students and teachers. We share with them. They are students at the boarding school, sons of cowboys, who work in the cattle stalls. Previously we saw that they did not have materials for a dining room or kitchen. We prayed to the Lord, and we were able to help with that. Previously school helping the poorsupplies were donated for the students, as well as for the school library. They are poor people who work as employees taking care of the bosses' cattle. Their children study in rural schools, also with limited resources.

We give thanks for the churches in New Zealand who share with us in this ministry.

We want to tell you that we have not changed the vision that the Lord taught us, to preach the Gospel and to love our neighbour.

Thank you for your contribution, help, and your support for us. The Lord is a witness where we invest, and for sure it is for the cause of Christ.

Please pray for my wife and I. Nelda has very serious health problems. She has a blocked arterial valve which means she does not receive a good supply of blood to her brain and falls to the ground. She already broke her wrist and a part of her face. I also cannot walk much or climb more than three steps, because of my delicate spine. But we can drive and travel to the mission field to support the brothers and preach to those who do not know God and need to have their souls saved. That is a bit of a studying marriagestestimony, we are always preaching in church conferences. We also attend three meetings a week with families (photo right), with the theme of Christian marriage in different places in Camiri, Monteagudo and Villamontes. We also continue to do Bible studies with a good group of Mennonites.

We ask for your prayers, we are already married 56 years, and we are 76 years old. Thank you for all you do for us, God is not in debt to anyone, He will repay you. We will continue until the Lord gives us life and opportunity. 

Thank you, my brothers and sisters, you have a part in all these ministries. The Lord continues to show me open doors.

I will tell you more about what the Lord does in His will.

 

Thank you, my brothers and sisters,
Your brother and sister Tino and Nelda Villarroel
