Week 16: The Launch of Revolution

Jairo and I have a non-profit organization called Revolution Ministries. Or, we will have, once we finish the paperwork. It’s a Christian organization for youth and children, and the goal is to start a spiritual revolution in the new generations of youth, so that they can live out their faith and be a light to their peers and their country.

Our pastor agreed to let Revolution take over the church youth group, so we just had an all-night event, no sleeping, called a “vigilia” to launch Revolution with the youth. It was an incredible night. We packed it full of prayer, praise and worship, games, dramas, snacks and much more. There were a lot of teens there, a lot more than we expected, and it was a great night of fellowship and getting to know the teens better. They were very excited about all the new changes and I think it’s going to be a really great opportunity to be working with Cordero de Dios church.

A pastor was there visiting from Santo Domingo, a city on the coast of Ecuador, and he told us later that he is beginning a youth group in Santo Domingo and was wondering if Revolution would like to take it over! I’m not sure if we will or not, because we really need to pray about it and see where God is leading us.

Still, I’m pretty excited that God is opening the doors for this ministry! I feel like the whole has been an affirmation from God that He is pleased with the ministry and wants to use us. I feel very content and ready to get to work! I hope the feeling lasts for a while!
