We know that every one of our prayer has reached God's heart and that He has answered according to his amazing will. Which is why we're going to share some of our prayer requests hoping you to pray according to the Work God has initiated and is perfecting in Mérida.

So we thank the Lord so much that has called us to serve each university student in Mérida. Upon the recommendation of our Pastor and Director we're currently on a different fase in our ministry.
