This past Sunday was Easter and it also was the 6th Anniversary of Nueva Vida en Cristo Baptist Church. We had a wonderful time listening to testimonies from the 7 folks that got baptized. It was so encouraging to hear how God is using others to bring the lost to Himself. Our daughter Natalie was apart of God's plan to bring Ana Elsa, our deaf neighbor, to Christ. It was so neat to listen to Natalie share Ana Elsa's testimony while Ana Elsa signed. Benjamin, a new believer also gave a very moving testimony. He invited his parents from Durango (a 12 hour trip) to witness his baptism. Benjamin publically asked forgiveness for being a horrible, son, husband, father and grandfather. After his testimony his wife Ana, gave him a big hug. I can't wait for you all to meet these folks in Heaven someday!

Our new kid's club choir--Cre Cri. Cre Cri stands for Creciendo en Cristo or growing in Christ. We are teaching the kids biblical character qualities. This class meets on Sundays during the Bible Institute classes for the adults.
Our youth did a skit under the direction of Nathaniel and Natalie. It was so good. We stole the idea from something we found on YouTube, Everything Lighthouse Skit.
We had over 120 folks yesterday. It was a day full of glorifying God for what He is doing in our lives. We are so grateful for Our Risen Savior that give us the opportunity to have a New Life in Him!
