On May 3, we were blessed to be a part of the re-opening of Pastor Carlos’ first church plant—Cabo Valle, led by Pastor Miguel. Pastor Carlos referred to the festivities as the church’s inauguration. After looking up the definition, I couldn't agree more. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, an inauguration is: “A ceremonial induction into office.” I can’t think of a better concept then inducting the building and the church family into the official office—Preacher of Jesus Christ.
The original church structure (on rented property), was twisted and tore down last October during a cyclone that sat spinning in the Cabo San Lucas Bay for nearly 24 hours. Shortly after the storm, one of our ministry partners saw the need and provided money for new materials to rebuild the structure.
Shortly after the first of the year, Pastor Carlos, his team of faithful men from his church, and volunteers from all three church plants, as well as Richard and Shane Crowley, spent the next few months excavating, putting in a septic tank, water lines and a fully-functioning bathroom—all on a newly purchased lot. The resulting structure was sturdy and impressive for the investment.
Pastor Miguel and his team handed out invitations to the surrounding neighborhood for the church service and festivities—including a carry-in dinner. The excited church family dressed up for the occasion! The presence of the Holy Spirit was strong. Pastor Carlos spoke to the packed church. The elders (including Richard and I) anointed the posts and entrance to the building. The prayer for the new work was powerful.
Please pray for the church plants at Cabo Valle, Las Palmas and Caribe!
