One final word of encouragement as 2022 comes to a close and we approach the end of our 10th Anniversary Matching Campaign.

Raydel passed along this update last week:

To continue sharing what is happening here, I am attaching a photo from today in the community of Alta Gracia. God continues to work, and although we are on “vacation,” it is difficult to say no to a group of young people who want to use their own vacation to learn from the Word.

I told him this could be the caption to the photos:

Psalm 119:20 – “My soul is consumed with longing for your laws at all times.”

The theologian Albert Barnes provided the following powerful description of the psalmist:

The desire to know more of the commands of God acted continually on him, exhausting his strength, and overcoming him. He so longed for God that, in our language, “it wore upon him” – as any ungratified desire does. It was not the possession of the knowledge of God that exhausted him; it was the intenseness of his desire that he might know more of God.

The world desperately needs evangelical leaders who are hungry to personally comprehend and effectively communicate the life-changing truths of Scripture.

Thank you for your partnership in this endeavor.

Happy New Year!
