JUNE-JULY-AUGOST
alright guys, it has been a long summer. Lots of blessings, great things continued happening in our ministry; more groups, new buildings, and the most important of all, lots of new christians... THis is what it´s all about. Remember this, if you a product in which you do not belief, you are not gonna have any possitive results. Everything that we have acomplished this summer its because how great and awesome is God, and for the hard work of all those pèople who have seem our vission of changing the Dominican Republic for God. I´m gonna post here some videos and pictures of some of the activities we have done throughout this summer. I´m super happy, God has done great things, the youth group keeps growing in number and knowledge, so please keep praying for us.
Do you guys remember the youth retreat I always talked about?? THANKS, to all of those people who made that retreat come true. Last year we had 150 kids, this year we grew to 250. With all my heart, THANK YOU, it´s never easy to go around asking for help for an activity that many people haven´t even heard of, but the love of God made it easy for you guys to adopt this vission and make it possible. Only God know the number of lives that were changed because of that retreat. I have so many testimonies of diferent kids coming to me and telling me how much they learned or how much they have change as a result of cristo urbano. People in diferent radio shows want us to come share about it, people in diferent T.V stations want us to come visit them. So many kids have been baptized after God opened the eyes of their hearts at that camp...Here are some videos and pictures of Cristo Urbano.
These were two of the main rappers of the weekend. They were great!

A lot of people helped us sponsoring busses for kids from all over dominican to be able to come to the camp. Thank you, Only from batey 9 we were able to bring 63 kids because of that help. Here is a group from batey 9 having fun in the pool

here are some pictures the time small groups:
This are some college age students who came to the camp from other churches. In the video they are saying how much the enjoyed the camp and some of the things they learned at the small groups.

The theme of the weekend was ¨not a fan¨ we took that idea from a series of sermons that Kyle Idleman taught at south east christian church. Many fans of christ became followers that weekendThe youth group that I have been bless with ;)The group of gringos :) that came to help us organized Cristo Urbano. Without them this wouldn´t be possible. A big group from Michigan and Okolona, KY lead by my two brothers Mr. Tyler Sherman and Jesse Deyoung, thank you guys.My cousin Wellington made the desition of becoming a follower of Christ at this campThis was right after cristo urbano... These kids decided to give their all to Christ


Talent show at los guadules church. This is the 4th time we did it involving more than three churches. It was a great fellowship night.

The ladies of the church did a car wash to raise funds for the ladies retreat. Part of the youth group was there helping the cause. It was a fun day.

The Haitian church of Hoya del caimiti invited us to do a service together with them... It ended up being a Haitian-Dominican-American service all together, it was great. This is one of the songs we did. The great thing about this song is that we did it live with the kids from the youth groups that last years had no idea how to play an instrument and now they are making magic with it. God has listen to our prayers.

One of the things that the youth group did on their own was to take the inisiative to start a baseball team within the youth group. I was super proud of them because they started the team with the purpose of bringing to the team kids that are not christians so they can get to know God.
This next videos was made by a friend of mine from another church. He was part of our youth retreat -Cristo Urbano- and he loved the way we bring the gospel to kids in the street, so he asked us to bring the mentality of cristo urbano to his church for a night. He put together a concert at his church with the hottest rappers of the city. This activity was amazing, we were proud of our work... Everyone knew about this activity, this time organize by a church of God that at the time we haven´t even been there before. He named the activity ¨Cristo Urbano-The concert¨ It was awesome, kids loved it. This video was the opening videos for the night with all the ministries that were gonna be part of it, hope you enjoy it:

This is one of the songs I did live at that concert....so much fun :)

after a long summer with a lot of work, not just for me but also for the youth group, we decided to take a time to go to the beach a relax. hahaha it was a great day, we had a lot of fun, a lot of crazy things happened but still was fun :) we need it that time together. 10 of the kids got stung by jelly fish and 5 got hurt really bad by a wave against some rocks :) yeah, we still enjoyed it ...

Gracias to all of you that support me and pray for me every night and day. You help to make this journey a lot of easier for all of us. thank you and may God bless you!!
