In Psalm 27:14, David implores us to:

“Wait on the LORD;
Be of good courage,
And He shall strengthen your heart;
Wait, I say, on the LORD!”

The 17th-century theologian John Trapp remarked on this passage, “Many of the Lord’s promises bear a long date; but they are sure and infallible. Wait, therefore.”

Last weekend’s first in-person training was the culmination of a long wait.

Beginning with an exploratory trip to Puerto Rico in 2019, followed by a site visit to our Santo Domingo office in 2022, Raydel’s training was years in the making. Still, we trust in God’s providence and celebrate His provision of this opportunity to serve the body of Christ in Puerto Rico.

Thank you for your continued prayer and financial support, which is how the Lord has chosen to strengthen and sustain this ministry.
