Guatemala Highlights

Hey Everyone,

I am back from Guatemala. We did have an incredible trip. Here are some of the highlights from the trip.

School Assemblies:

In Guatemala I spoke in six school assemblies to around 1300 students. It was powerful to see God impact the lives of those students in the assemblies. We saw dozens of students respond to give their lives to Jesus Christ in the assemblies.


On the first day of school our team did four school assemblies back to back. It was a very intense day. The energy was through the roof from the moment we started the music and pulled those teachers up on the stage to dance. The students were engaged and impacted through the presentations.

My heart was broken for the students in every assembly that I spoke in. I am excited for future trips to Guatemala to speak in more school assemblies.

The Crusade's:
I was in two crusades with another evangelist while in Guatemala. We were working with Jonathan and Alicia Farrant, missionaries to Guatemala. There was a crusade in Chimaltanengo and Nueve Concepcion. Between the two crusades there was an estimated attendance of about 6,000 people.

There were thousands who responded to receive Jesus Christ as the Lord and Savior. It was incredible to see how God touched lives in each crusade. I will never forget the hundreds of heeling's and other manifestations of the Holy Spirit.

There are incredible things happening in Guatemala. I was honored to have a part in what God was doing during these past couple of weeks.

Spanish School:
I studied Spanish for a week at Christian Spanish Academy in Antigua, Guatemala. I am excited about the progress that I have been making in my language study. As I was preaching in a church in Guatemala I preached about five minutes of my message in Spanish. It was very excited. It will not be too much longer and I'll be preaching whole messages in Spanish. There is an incredible anticipation in my heart to continue ministry in Guatemala and throughout Latin America.

Leaving the Country

Hey Everyone,

In just two days I will be getting on a plane and flying into Guatemala. I'll be there for two weeks. Next week I will be speaking in nine schools in Guatemala. On Wednesday night and Friday night we will have a youth crusade with an anticipated attendance of 8,000 students.
The second week I will be attending language school and continuing to learn Spanish. I'm very excited about this trip and what is going to happen.

Please pray for myself and our team as we are ministering to students in the schools and the crusade. Pray that the gifts of the Spirit would be in operation and that we would see thousands of students saved in these crusades. Please pray for our missionary friends, Jonathan and Alisha Farrant.

I'll keep everyone updated on what is happening as we progress through the trip. Thanks!
