Community Adoption

We met a group of young people  in Chile who had been studying  world missions for 4 years.  We began to attend their missions meetings and one day the pastor's wife, Elizabeth, came to the meeting and suggested that God had brought us together for a purpose. The group wanted to put their missionary zeal into practice, and we had the Omega Course to train them. I suggested that there were 300 Mapuche communities in our region without a church. Dani, (next to me in bright blue below), told us that her grandmother lives in Niagara , one of these communities. It was clear to everyone that Elizabeth (front right) was right that God had brought us together for a purpose. They decided to adopt Niagara. This is the first community adoption since the need for the 300 were made public last November. Pray for the other 299, too!
