Changes can be Miraculous

What an exciting day!  Isn't it always amazing when God changes your plans and something miraculous comes out of that?!  (and again, this has been a learning process as the planner in me wants everything to go as ordered and thought out)...  So today was initially going to be a prep trip to Nagua with J and a few of our AIM guys.  However, due to a death in the family of the pastor's wife, he was unable to meet with our team and ergo changes happened.  After a few phone calls yesterday afternoon, J and 3 of our AIM guys traveled to Gasper Hernandez (an hour drive) today to meet with 2 coaches and their teams.  After introductions by Checo, J presented his word of encouragement followed by Salomon presenting the devotion and the Gospel. As J puts it:

There were several amazing things happening today.  First, witnessing our guys speak with the athletes and their coaches was like watching someone breathe.  Just natural and easy.  It's like a basketball team that has played together for a very long time.  They work seamlessly together and know where everyone will be even when improvising.  When you know and see this meshing occur as it's happening, it is a beautiful thing to witness.  Secondly, and most importantly, 15 kids accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior today!!!!  GLORIA A DIOS!!   

And what further excites us is that each of you (through prayer and support) are part of that team who spoke to these kids today!  You are allowing this to happen, and there are not enough words to show our appreciation for your support and the support of AIM.  We are blessed to have such a large team with us every step of the way.  And as Rudy (our Cuban brother) always says, "Just one more!"  Allow "just one more" person to accept Christ!  After all, isn't that our primary and main goal here on this Earth?!

 

And then he told them, “Go into all the world and preach the Good News to everyone. Mark 16:15
