What a month it has been, although it flew by compared to the year that March was! April was a lot of change... and a lot of the same (still living in paradox 🤪) It reminded me how incredibly grateful I am to serve a God who doesn't change. No matter what I'm feeling or what situation I find myself in, God remains faithful.
If you ask me how this past month was for me, I'd probably tell you that it depends on which week you're asking me about. There were a lot of times where I got really close to dipping into discouragement and had to dig into God's word and remind myself of His promises. Thankfully, He hears our cries and rescued me real quick. He reminded me that His timing is perfect and His ways are higher than my own.

The Great Commission Church in La Libertad has been hard at work this month serving the community through the distribution of food and masks! As the quarantine continues they're hosting virtual services and bible studies. Not being able to meet for in-person services has mobilized churches all over the world to be creative in how we share the love of Christ. I LOVE getting to see snapshots of how my Salvadoran church family shows Christ's love to the community. It renews the longing in my heart to be there serving alongside them.
Just a quick update if you saw the El Salvador COVID-19 update that I shared on Facebook- the strict lockdown in the city of La Libertad has been lifted, although the country of El Salvador is still under a shelter-in-place order.
If you're not part of the Facebook group already, join us here!

Thanks to your generosity, I am at 80% of my monthly goal! I have set a goal to be at 90% of my monthly support goal by May 12. Will you join me in prayer that the Lord would provide this?
Thank you for trusting the Lord with your finances and continuing to partner with me in ministry! This ministry is not possible without your partnership and I am SO grateful for each and every one of you!! If you find yourself in a pinch and cannot continue your giving, please let me know so we can put that on pause until you are able to start it up again.
Pray with Me
Let me know how I can be praying for you!
