El Punto

November/December 2007 Newsletter

The Point: This was the focus of the evangelistic activity, to reach the youth in the city of Tepic. The point was that Jesus Christ is Lord of lords and King of kings. Aside from letting people know this we also wanted to attack the enemy on his ground and defeat him here in our State once and for all.

The Purpose: Preach the gospel to over 5,000 youth in their territory using their activities and using the world’s money to do the job. At the same time we wanted to impact the city with a Christian activity that would be remembered.

The Promises we were given:

- This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate in it day and night, that you may observe to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success.

- Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; do not be afraid, nor be dismayed, for the LORD your God is with you wherever you go.”

- Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations….

- That now the manifold wisdom of God might be made known by the church to the principalities and powers in the heavenly places

- And all these, having obtained a good testimony through faith, did not receive the promise, God having provided something better for us …

The point was made, the purpose accomplished and a new way of doing things was established. On the 28th and 29th of September we had 14 hours of motorcycles, acrobatic bikes, skateboards, graffiti, fashion show and more. It was all done in a Christian atmosphere with a Christian musical and two concerts at the end of each day. The effort made by the organizing churches was incredible, the prayers of the saints innumerable and the preparations unbelievable. The promises were fulfilled.

Our work has just begun as we start to reap the results of the Word that has been sown. Also we are planning to reach out to other areas and States with this activity so the impact that our city received can be made available in other cities and States as well.

At this Thanksgiving and Christmas season we pray rich blessings upon all you who support this ministry. We covet your prayers and your faithful offerings.
