We returned to Venezuela in March from Mexico and began ministry and preaching of the Gospel around an area which is an hour and a half from Barquisimeto Edo. Lara, where we live. Then two weeks later, we moved to another place called La Independencia. There we saw the blessing of the Lord with two souls professing faith in Christ, following preaching and children's classes every afternoon led by my wife, Maryeri.
In the last days of June, we went to a town 20 minutes from Cauderales called Siquisique, where, thanks to the Lord, we proclaimed the gospel in the streets through the car speakers. In the home of two brothers, the Lord allowed us to preach the gospel so that two people confessed the name of the Lord. There were already five brothers in fellowship in this town, prompting us to pray for a place for the believers to meet, which our God approved. We thank the Lord for believers of this town who offered their assistance, and a hall was built.
This August 27, according to the will and the sovereign grace of the Lord, we inaugurated the new Gospel hall with a Bible study, the preaching of the gospel and baptism.

Please pray that a future assembly may be formed in this town since there are six brothers in fellowship there, including three new believers. Acts 14 and 17 tell us that our God will not leave us without a testimony.
The Pandemic limited the people of God from having regular meetings, so we have used Zoom (for the past year) to give Ministry and to proclaim the Gospel. We commenced each meeting with prayer by four brethren for the different needs of the people of God, for the preaching of the Gospel and for the seed that is being sown. In this way, by the grace of the Lord, we saw 19 souls profess faith in Christ from a number of Spanish-speaking countries.
