Pastor Carl Brown in Belize!

We were privileged, indeed, to have my "brother from another mother," Pastor Carl Brown (Rialto, CA) with us this past week.

God did some wonderful things! Backsliders were restored, many saints were renewed in the Holy Ghost, and the Church as a whole and churches individually received much-needed encouragement and direction.

THANK YOU, Pastor Brown! Eternity will reveal the full results of your anointed ministry.

Father and sons...all three sons were recently baptized in Jesus' Name and filled with the Holy Ghost! (The oldest already had the Holy Ghost experience)

"Borne of Four" ––Vision, Compassion, Organization, and Action: a life-changing message!
It takes all four to get the job done!

Three congregations gathered: Guinea Grass Village, San Felipe Village, San José Village

You Just Never Know

Richard Mayén...

Filled with the Holy Ghost at a young age, Richard was raised with a missionary family with a huge heart for young people. The Joiner family in Belize made him one of them, and taught him the love and the fear of the Lord.

Life was not always easy; in fact, in handed him some crushing blows. Still, Richard remained faithful to God. Fruits of his sacrifices began to be seen just this past December, when we baptized his oldest daughter in the Name of Jesus!

Richard Mayén (L)


And then...now...two months later...

He's gone. Yesterday. His heart gave out, and, at the age of 32, he went to be with His Lord.

32...so young. But death never looks at a birthdate; it doesn't matter at all to death.

What did matter was that Richard was ready; Richard knew where he was going, and he went in peace. Thank God for a missionary family who were there for him when he needed them to be!

Missions takes many forms; so does death. But when it comes, we had better be ready.

Are YOU ready for your appointment with death? Because it's marked already on your calendar... (Hebrews 9:27). Don't delay; Acts 2:37-39 tell you exactly and precisely what you must do –what Richard did– to be ready.

Until soon, Brother Richard...until soon. Rest in peace –truly!

The Joy of Bible School

Few places can have a greater impact over a longer period of time on the affairs of the church world –and, in a very true sense, the world at large– than a Bible School. 

This is true in ways both good and bad: a good teacher of a bad doctrine can influence generations to believe like him; conversely, a good teacher of Truth can instill in his students a passion for that Truth that carries over into successive generations and affects the world. 

One of the greatest things we can do for people is inspire them to fall in love with the Word of God. We start by instilling daily Scripture-reading habits. Simultaneously, we introduce the students to the history of the Bible: its origins, its infallibility, and its survivability (there is no book remotely like it!). Then, we empower them to understand the Word by giving them the tools to study it and the proper methods of interpreting it ––and the lights come on! It's a wonderful and rewarding process.

Peru is blessed with a good Bible School. We have a four-year study program, and are diversifying in order to be able to offer multiple majors. We are thankful for a beautiful Bible School facility. Centro Internacional de Ministerios Apostólicos serves all Oneness Apostolic groups who wish to send students to us.










We're also blessed to be able to take the Bible School classes into the interior of the country, in several different cities and geographical regions. Additionally, our Online program is almost ready...

Please pray for our Apostolic Bible Schools, here and around the world. They are vitally important!

Pray for Peru! Flooding, Disaster, and Death

Peru is on the verge of declaring a national emergency. An unexpected recurrence of the El Niño phenomenon is wreaking havoc with the weather all over the country.

Sing with Understanding

That's what the Word says:
"For God is the King of all the earth: sing with understanding."––Psalm 47:7 (RV1960)
Sing with understanding. Literally, sing circumspectly, prudently. Know what you are singing, what the words and lines mean.

Update – Acts Chapter 19 … Today!

I received a sad yet absolutely wonderful text message from Pastor Tomás Sánchez this week:

Nov 23, 2016

Acts 19 ... Today!

Pastor Chuquipiondo was elderly and ill. A sincere preacher and believer in Jesus Christ in the jungle city of Iquitos, Peru, he was now faced with situations beyond his control...and he didn't have answers.

Quote

"And people who do not know the Lord ask why in the world we waste our lives as missionaries. They forget that they too are expending their lives, and when the bubble has burst they will have nothing of eternal significance to show for the years they have wasted." ––Nate Saint
