Volume 4 Issue 3 – “Open Doors”
Open Doors
We live in a country that has a great mix of antique and new design. Today as I walked down the street I was noticing all the antique doors and how each door was hand-crafted and is different in it’s own way. I felt the Lord speaking to my heart about how just as each door was made to fit each home so was our call to Argentina; hand-crafted to fit the need we are finding here. In the coming weeks we will be sharing with you many of the ministry opportunities we are finding here in Argentina.
Over the past 17 months we have walked through many doors; it’s exciting that the doors we had prayed to open for the past 4 years have finally opened. When we came to Argentina we had a very personal word spoken over our ministry “that we were called to Argentina to do a specific task and not to stray from it.” Pioneering a ministry that is so new to the church in Latin America has been an adventure. Our prayer that the Lord would bring us individuals who share our vision for Media Ministry has been coming true and we have joined in establishing a network of Media Ministers.
One partner, Diego, said “It’s not a coincidence that I met you Jonathan and that one of the leading Christian Media representatives in Argentina left his last job because he feels the burden to partner with multiple ministries. Gabriel shares our same vision; a call to equip the church with media ministers. Trained young professionals utilizing the art of media to multiply the message of local ministries.”
For the past month we have met with a group of young talented Christian professionals creating a network of learning and shared talent to realize the ministry of Media in the church. These individuals are so excited to find their place in the church. Just as I felt 10 years ago, unsure of how God could use my gifts and talents in media and in missions. I have met and shared with so many pastors and students who desire to reach more people thru the channels of Media. God has been faithful in supplying the people. God told us to “GO” we obeyed and have been blown away by His faithfulness.
We can’t believe that our term is coming to an end, when we feel like we are just getting started. We are planning on coming home to itinerate in June 2011 and we would like to start booking services for June 2011-June 2012 now. The closer we stay to a 365 day furlough the smoother the transition will be on the family.
*Please help us book services now for June 2011-June 2012 so we can stay on track with the kids school schedule and transition.
