Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glories of the Lord rises upon you. (Isaiah 60: 1)
Hello, brothers and sisters. I greet you in the name of our Lord on the churches that are praying for Venezuela. Thank you for your prayer and love. Let me update on the recent information of this country and additional prayer requests. Venezuela's electricity, water and gas conditions are getting worse and worse.
In the area where I live, electricity is only supplied for below half a day, and water is supplied only 30 minutes each twice a day.
It is like a world filled with anxiety and darkness, but I look forward to God's work as I gather hands of prayer today
them praise the name of the LORD, for “ Let his name alone is exalted; his splendor is above the earth and the heavens. (Psalms 148:13)

University student disciple movement In three cities, there is an active movement to make college student disciples. Trained leaders preach the gospel and give courses for discipleship.
Mattew 25:35,40 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’
The movement, which started with 16 leaders, is now growing a national movement with more than 50 disciples.
- Pray for leaders and disciples who are evangelizing and receiving daily discipleship course on the campus to learn more about Jesus' love and study the Bible. - The 2nd GLOBAL LEADERSHIP SCHOOL will be held from July 22 to December 13. (Missionary Gedeon Kim will be charged for this train.) 78 young people and 16 leaders will be trained together for 6 months in a Biblical worldview. Please pray for the rest of the three weeks before this training so that we can prepare well everything the instructors, food, facilities, health, environment, and more.
Food for child ministry Almost all children in Venezuela have been eating only one meal a day. Last year, we served food and preached the gospel to about 300 children every week, and in the first half of 2019, around 600 children were given food every week. (Missionary Shula Kang lead servants group.)
- In the second half of 2019, we will serve food and the Gospel to 1,000 children every week. Please pray for us to serve more children.
Seminary ministry
Venezuela Baptist Seminary, which I have been serving since a year ago, is now on vacation. The students spent four months in the dormitory and were well fed by God's grace. There were many days without water in the middle, but I am thankful that the seminarians prayed and endured it well.
Caracas Evangelical Seminary, another seminary I serve in, is now in the final month of classes. - Please pray that students who work during the day and study theology at night will be healthy and finish well the semester.
- Pray for students to have a peaceful time with their family during the vacation and encourage everyone to register again for the new term.
Church ministry
Family
Adonai church is revived day by day with the grace of God. In May, missionary Manuel and I baptized five new believers of the church.
In June, I met my children in three different countries. I am grateful to God for protecting them to be able to live well in a difficult environment.
- The church is planning to move, so please pray for the building contract to be done soon. - Pray for the new believers to know God better and experience his boundless love.
- My 16-year-old youngest daughter is staying at another missionary's home in Guatemala. Please pray for peace of mind. - Pray for my eldest son in Illinois, the middle daughter in Korea, the youngest daughter in Guatemala, and my wife and me in Venezuela, will be provided all things that we need only with the grace of God, and that our spirits will be strong. - My wife will have a breast biopsy on July 17th. Please pray that there will be no abnormal results.
