Thank you, thank you, thank you for your participation and love for what God is doing in Jarabacoa through the arts. And, thank you for blessing me, Amy Babb, over the last two years as I worked alongside Francisco. I realized recently that I hadn't updated the blog since God called me back to live in America and left you all hanging here!
We had an incredibly successful summer painting murals in El Callejon (59 murals in all) and ended the summer with a dedication service. The community came out and we sang worship songs together and heard several testimonies of just how these powerful pieces of art are affecting their lives. It was a huge blessing for all involved.
At the end of summer, I had to say many sad goodbyes as I left behind the kids I had grown so attached to in El Callejon and especially Francisco and his family. It was very hard leaving the ministry knowing that we did not have someone at the ready to take my place (hence the reason the blog has not been updated!) Yet, we know that God is faithful in all things and is doing a new thing!
Until another comes along who can update this blog in English, feel free to visit www.stint.com and send an email requesting information on what's happening currently with Francisco and the art ministry.
Again, thank you for your prayers, patience and support.
God Bless!
