Dear Friends,
On Sunday March 21st, we had our first informal event at the Penasco Community Center. I was very glad to be there and be part of it. We had about 15 kids and 10 parents as well as Pastor Manuel, his wife Olga and his daughter Dinora, who is studying theology and ministry. She has a great heart for the kids and is wonderful in dealing with them. We also had Pastor Jesus and his wife Margarita, longtime friends and disciples of Pastor Manuel, who have recently moved to Penasco to help in the ministry.

We had a soccer game in the street with the kids, one of my favorite things to do with the kids. Pastor Jesus did a great job of referring and keeping the game moving. It turns out the Felipe, the caretaker of the center, who is great with young men, is quite a soccer player and added much more talent to his team than I did to mine.
After the soccer game, we had light refreshments followed by a wonderful little message from Pastor Manuel and a few short inspirational words by me to this small core group of kids and parents.
The roof is now on the building housing the bathrooms. Manuel and his team are now working on the front security wall, the concrete columns for the gates into the property. They will also start shortly on tiling and completing the bathrooms.
We are very pleased with how the center is progressing and the team that Manuel is developing. Thanks for your support and prayers! Please keep them coming as we impact this area with the love and light of Christ.
More joy and Peace, let’s keep shining the light of God’s love,
Cameron
