The Northeast group didn’t meet during the month of April. They tell me most of the participants had problems attending because of increased load of work. This group, however has one man coming to church every Sunday. Two of the participants are busy studying two teenagers who are children of members.
The Northwest group continues to meet at Roberto’s home. One visitor from my neighborhood continues to attend with me. These days that I don’t have a vehicle, he gives me a ride to that event every Friday at 8:30 pm. He is very gifted and has very mature views of the Bible message. However, he hasn’t considered attending to services yet.
The support group for men continues to meet. During this month we had a great time as we were able to pray for one another to learn to be used by God in ministry. Most of the men who meet are in charge of either teaching or leading in some way or another. The fact that a brother prays for another to be able to lead or teach God’s people is a quite a boost to his confidence in presenting a lesson, as we learn to trust on Him for the results.
We are experiencing a great deal of fellowship, and through this ministry other men are being influenced, and studied with. We now have single men in the group, and a couple of divorcees who are struggling with loneliness. So the group is very important for them, and they appreciate very much the encouragement they receive from others.
The group we call “Singing Lessons” continues to meet with Norberto Ross, our music professor. Norberto says that he studied a capella choral music in college and never used it until he became a Christian. Now he is seeing the purpose God had for him studying this type of music.
The leadership training group that met on Saturdays to study the qualifications of elders is no longer meeting as we were able to finish this study.
