 ~ Mission Update~
A bit of history - After Rev. Everts left Cubulco in 2008 there has not been
an ordained pastor stationed there. Since that time various ministers have
come on a somewhat (ir)regular basis to preach the Word and administer
the sacraments. In between an edifying word would be given by the other
missionary families (Kattenberg, Bout, VanMinnen) and by the obreros, who
have had some theological training by attending the Bible Institute over the
years. For the last year a certain Pastor Carlos has been coming quite
regularly on weekends to preach the Word. There was some hope that he
would be the next minister to be stationed in Cubulco but the churches did
not have the liberty to extend a call to this man. Currently some other
Guatemala pastors who have the potential of being called to Cubulco are
being asked to come and preach so that the churches have the opportunity
for evaluation. Please pray that the Lord will send the right man to this area
that he might be instrumental in building up the churches there.
