Hola Mendoza!

Glory to God, we started constructing our new building!! Our team of staff-constructors is working from dawn till sunset. The foundation has been laid already and we are ready to start building some walls. It is a real blessing that we could start, and at the same time a big challenge: financially we are dependent on offerings. If God puts in your heart the desire to be part of this challenge contact us at jucummendoza@yahoo.com.ar Thank you! Gloria a Dios, empezamos con la construcción de nuestro edificio propio! Nuestro equipo de obreros-constructores está trabajando desde el amanecer hasta el anochecer. Ya tenemos los cimientos y estamos listos para levantar las paredes! Es una gran bendición que hayamos podido empezar, y al mismo tiempo un gran desafío: en las finanzas estamos dependiendo de ofrendas. Si Dios pone en tu corazón el deseo de ser parte de este desafío, ponete en contacto con nosotros! Gracias! jucummendoza@yahoo.com.ar This Easter we celebrated Jesus’ resurre...

Wow, not updating the blog for three weeks makes us realize what an active base we are! So many things happened that we want to tell you about! From the 6 th to the 9 th of April we had our Staff retreat. We spend these days together as a family, sharing, listening to devotionals and seeking God in all the projects that are planned for the coming year (and let us tell you: it’s a lot, thanks to God!). Saturday the 9 th of April, we celebrated the international day of the Woman in our neighborhood. The photos that we took during this month of the women in the neighborhood were exposed under the name “Beauty Exposed”. Furthermore the Art ministry presented a choreography. The week after, one of our long held desires finally was fulfilled: we had a week-long bible study seminary, led by our staff member Carlos from the base in Corrientes in which we studied the letter to the Ephesians. It was a beautiful time and we learned a lot! What a richness there is in the Word! In two mo...

How the time flies by! Three months ago we started the Soccer DTS and this Saturday the teams are already leaving on Outreach! The first two weeks they will spend all together in Chile and then one team will leave to Northern Argentina and the other team will go to Peru. We have great expectations of what the Lord is going to do in the lives of the students and the people they will meet. This week we are celebrating as well International Women's Day (which was the 8th of March) with an entire week of activities in the neighbourhood, finishing with a festival on Saturday. Moreover, this week we will spend time as a family during the staff retreat! Together we will seek the Lord and listen to all the plans and challenges that He has for us for the coming year. Cómo vuela el tiempo! Hace tres meses empezamos con la EDE de Fútbol y este sábado los equipos ya se van a su tiempo práctico! Las primeras dos semanas todos van a estar en Chile y después un equipo viajará al Norte de A...

Last Saturday we went to different parts of Mendoza to bring awareness to the day of the unborn child. Here in Argentina they want to pass a law that makes abortion legal and we took the opportunity to talk to the people and invite them for a informative talk and discussion. As well, we celebrated the graduation of the students of the School of Frontier Missions! How amazing to hear all the testimonies and see how God’s heart beats for the Nations! Congratulations to all of the students that graduated. May God bless you and guide you into the next step of His dreams for you! El sábado pasado salimos a diferentes partes de Mendoza para conscientizar el dia del niño por nacer. Aca en Argentina el gobierno quiere crear una ley que legaliza el aborto. Tomamos esta oportunidad para hablar con la gente e invitarlas a una charla y discusión. También, celebramos la graduación de los estudiantes de la Escuela de las Misiones Transculturales! Que maravillosa escuchar todos los testimonios y ver ...

Last week was a moving week! As a family we worked all together from early morning to late at night to make our own homemade tomato sauce. Selecting, washing, cutting, squeezing, boiling in order to fill more than 700 bottles! It was a lot of work, but now we know that we will have enough sauce to get through the winter. As a Mission we are trying to get more and more self-sustaining and this year we are taking on an agricultural challenge of growing our own fruits and vegetables. We have a lot of farmland, but we lack the resources to buy a tractor and other tools that we need. Contact us if you want to support us and be part of this challenge! As well, we supported the International Medical Relief team that came over from the US to give free clinics to the people in La Valle. Every day a group of 7 translators of our Mission helped translating appointments with the dentist, gynecologist, cardiologist, internist, nurses and the community education that was given. It was a bit hectic ...

This week we went to the mountains for the “Extreme Summer”- camp. We had a very good time! We were able to go rafting, camping on the top of a hill with a beautiful view and we did a lot of hiking. We closed of the days with a campfire and a time of sharing teachings and experiences. Missed out on this camp? No worries, later this year we will host another camp! As well we have a team from The King’s Academy from South Carolina visiting us. They will be spending time in the desert visiting families and going to a orphanage this week. We are glad to have them over! Furthermore, our girls-soccer team is playing a tournament in the different neighbourhoods of "Las Heras", our city department. Go Girls! Tuesday we celebrated the start of the Counseling School . We welcomed students that just finished their counseling DTS, staff from our Mission and other students that did their DTS’s in another place. The theme of the school is John 4:14 “But whoever drinks the water I give h...
