September 2014
Dear Friends,
In April we had our first Community & Medical Outreach of the
year. During these events we visit many people where they live, in
the most humble of circumstances you can imagine.
In one case we visited a grandmother who lived in a house made of
plastic, without water or any public service. She also had no food
for herself or the two grandchildren that in her charge. It was a
case where their father had died and the mother abandoned them.
We had spoke with her about taking the children into our home,
but during our last visit she started to cry and told me that she was
ready to die from hunger and need beside her grandchildren rather
than lose them. I cried with her and her pain at the thought of being separated from them.
That day it seemed to me that this was the love that the Bible talks about. Paul says in 1 Cor 13 that love is
longsuffering and never fails.
Next week I will once again be in that community with another
outreach I hope to see her again and bring her clothes, food and
personal care products as well as encouragement in the Lord. __________________________________________________________________________
Team Introduction in Sweden
Five years ago God gave me a desire, a dream in my
heart, to travel with some of our children to Sweden
to thank and share their testimonies with the people
that have invested so much into their lives. I had
almost given up hope that it would ever happen, but
the Lord fulfilled my dream this year.
On June 4th our first Missionary Team of 12 people
left for Europe. We were in Sweden for two months,
visiting different churches and many friends. It was a
huge privilege. Words are not sufficient to thank
God and our hosts for caring for us in this country
and for providing the food and transportation. We
felt very welcome.
We also want to thank
Pastors Ing-Mari and
Lasse Andersson, the
Key Church and the
Ministry Open Hand for
caring for us during this
time. It was also my
great privilege to preach
in several churches in
Sweden and feel God
helping me to share.

I am also very thankful for the opportunity to work
with Operation Joshua in Greece for a few days. We
were part of handing out more than a million New
Testaments to a million Greek families!!!
We are very hopeful that the seeds that we sowed
will bring fruit to the glory of God. One day we hope
to heat the testimony of someone that received a
New Testament and a revelation of the Cross and the
love of God.
I want to thank all of the people that supported me
financially with their gifts so that I could go to
Thessalonica and do God's work!
I am now back in Colombia and getting ready to
finish the construction of our third floor staff housing
and preparing our next Community & Medical
Outreach that starts this week. We are going to visit
a refugee community with a many needs.
I would appreciate it if you would pray for
the following:
- That God would renew my strength.
- For an operation that I need to correct a muscular
problem in my shoulders and back.
- For the continued desire to have my own home, to
live alone, outside of the ministry house.
Thanks for praying for me.
God Bless You,
Enith
