N-e-w-s

Yea!

Since my senior year in high school God has impressed it upon my heart to learn and study Gods word more deeply. When I became a Christian it was HIS love that I was consumed with. It was HIS Presence that I felt. His Word spoke to me but at that time in my life it was Holy Spirit that drew me to Him. My passion to learn more scripture and use my gifts has overwhelmed me in the past few years.  I have a desire to share what God has entrusted to me with the world.
Before coming here to Queretaro I was prayerfully considering going to Bible school (foregoing the mission field for a time) but it did not feel right. As much as I wanted to attend school I knew I was supposed to come to Queretaro first. So I let go of that plan in a way and said, ok, I’ll go to Queretaro without Bible School and trust God will give me all I need for this season. Well within the first few weeks of being here I was told about the new Institute.  It will be held in my local church which is the very church I attend and the very church that supports me! I was invited to a lunch meeting with the Pastors of this local church one day and they shared with me their desires.  I was overwhelmed with their commitment to support of me for as long as I remain here.  God has made it very clear that I have a “family” who will be here for me for as long as I am here. We had a great time chatting and they encouraged me greatly. At this time they also told me about and invited me to the Bible Institute.  The pastors shared with me about the upcoming informational meeting for this coming year. I said I would consider it.  Well I went to the meeting and during the meeting every part of me was jumping inside! My spirit was in agreement. I knew this was the very gift God was giving back to me!
How interesting! God is clever.  He knew back in July when I was praying about school there’d be an opportunity.  Here it is right in my very church. In this Institute there are three courses I will take- classes on theology, the supernatural, and evangelism.  Classes will be held in the mornings, two days a week and at the fraction of the price I’d have to pay in the States (About 20 dollars each month).  School starts Sept. 24! This schedule leaves open the opportunity to still work with the deaf in Amealco.
I am very excited to share this with you! I never ever considered in my wildest dreams that God would make this schooling possible.  BUT it is and I am blessed!
Everything I am and all that I will be learning will affect my ministry for the Kingdom wherever I go and whatever I do.   Thank you for your prayers as I add this adventure to my new season here in Queretaro.
