Revival has broken out in Uruguay! After fifty years of spiritual drought, the church of Uruguay began to pray for revival. As they prayed, cried and fasted, God birthed a vision in the hearts of the pastors and leaders in Uruguay to plant fifty churches. During the past two years God has blessed their faithfulness and obedience to this vision and enabled them to plant thirty new churches.
I have the privilege of working with Uruguay’s new church planters. I have heard their testimonies and their passion to reach the lost. We have trained and sent them out to be effective witnesses and pastors in their communities. Each church planter is making a tremendous impact for Christ.
A group of nine pastors led by Kevin Wallace, Lee Nash and myself, went to Uruguay in November. During a four day blitz, we held revival services in thirty churches. On the fifth day, we had training conferences with the church planters and ended our visit with a large evangelistic crusade to about 2000 people.
Everyone was blessed by our visit. Each church planter received training and encouragement. Our revival services were marked by many salvations and miracles. We were challenged as we heard the stories of the church planters and visited their projects. One Pastor, Marcos, who has been enrolled in our church planting process, grabbed me and hugged me tight and through tears, said, “Thank you for this training process that prepared me to be a pastor and allowed me to fulfill my calling.” His words and passion have left me more convinced than ever that it is critical for us to train and prepare our church planters so that they may fulfill God’s calling upon their lives.
Revival has broken out in Uruguay! We thank God that He has given us and you the privilege of sharing in this revival. Please help keep the fires of revival burning as we continue to train and encourage church planters across Latin America. World Mission Project #102-9094
