End of the year

We can't believe how fast this year flew by.
There are so many things to share and be thankful for, that's why we made this short video, to let you know how much we appreciate all of you who are always praying, going with us to different places and mobilizing us with your financial support to encourage others.

Jonatan will be sharing soon more details about his last trip to the Amazon region.
I was privileged to spend some time with Natasha's parents and being able to see their baptism in the Amazon river. We are happy for this step of obedience to God. My parents were there also there so this was definitely a special occasion to have both sets of parents together.

One of the leaders in a key village in the Amazon got married. It was a blessing to see them moving along in their faith and desiring to do things the right way and continue growing to help others.

We were able to visit some pastors to give some encouragement and plan a pastoral training for next summer. Our friend, Rene Gonzales, is part of a ministry in Virginia. He took the challenge of the Amazon and will be supporting us with this ministry in the future. We are excited to have partners like him and his ministry.

Also, we want to update you all about our field team for ABWE. After several months of meetings and evaluation, it was determined that we will be working closely with the Brazilian team in the Amazon region. We are excited to be part of this team and we will also continue staying connected to the team in Colombia as needed. This doesn't change anything in the plans that we had for the ministry or the region where we will be working, it is just a more effective way to continue with the work in this environment.
