For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgement of God rather than burnt offerings. Hosea 6:6 Greetings from Guatemala! We are so thankful for dear friends and supporters who participate in this work. We consider it a great privilege to be in this part of the world, accompanying churches and communities working to build the Kingdom.
My name is Byron Velasquez, I am a field staff in Guatemala, and we are starting a new year with great enthusiasm and great expectation of what God will do in 2023. I want to start by saying thank you so much for all your support, and I wish you a Happy New Year.
Greeting friends & Merry Christmas! It’s my joy to bring some prayer requests to you regarding the work we do together in global mission through CBM’s partners. I’m Louise Hannem. My work as Team Lead for Global Discipleship includes overseeing the SENT program, resource development, and youth engagement.
Greetings from Bruno and Kathleen in Guatemala, Central America where we support our Latin American partners in Bolivia, Cuba, the DR, El Salvador, and Guatemala. Like in most of the world today, many of our partner churches are struggling as their communities deal with hunger, lack of employment, inadequate health care, poor access to quality education, and corruption.
Hello my friends around the world, my name is Byron Velasquez. I serve in the country of Guatemala, supporting our partners in different areas so that they continue to impact their communities with the Gospel of Jesus. Today I want to thank you for all your prayers and support for CBM, because they are very important to us in the field. The pandemic has calmed down and many things are back to normal. I want to share some prayer requests for you to continue praying for us:
In our global ministry context, leaders are sharing how a lack of pastoral training and resources to navigate the needs of their communities have left them feeling burned-out and exhausted. Will you help us to re-energize these important ministry leaders? Your gift will provide new opportunities for discipleship training, pastoral coaching, workshops and leadership training - building leaders up to be a sustaining witness to those they serve.
