Two Lives Got Changed


We spent hours and hours on the road in Venezuela due to the heavy traffic. Our driver on one of the Sundays was a young man practicing a little English so we could communicate. He paid full attention to what was said during the church service and then he shared a little bit of his story with us. The following night after a long day of work, he showed up to pray together (in the picture below).


He learned a few lessons the hard way, from his own mistakes, and now he came back to Jesus and is ready to serve God with all of his heart. We believe God forgave him completely and will use that young man for His purposes. Also, we found out that he is a son of one of the pastors in that area. Praise the Lord; He is bringing His people back.

Other story.

Our team rented a big van for three days to take all of us and Venezuelan band from Caracas to Cumana, up to six hours drive. On the third day of spending time with our team and listening to the worship and teaching, our van driver (different driver than in the previous storyJ) decided to pray for God’s forgiveness for the first time.



All of us signed a “Happy Birthday” card for the newborn Christian. One of the local leaders explained what it means to be a follower of Jesus and invited him to his church. That invitation was accepted! (See the picture above) All the Glory to God!



We know for sure that God transformed the hearts of many people during the conference and during the great concert that the band performed.
