GOOD NEWS FROM BUENAVISTA


UPDATE

Shortly after our Short Term Mission trip at the end of July, Pastor Omar was able to purchase a motorcycle with the funds provided by SVCC and other supporters.


He was able to get a better moped that what we imagine.  Now he can save time and energy.  And he will be able to go further faster than he did using his bicycle.

YOUTH RETREAT
 In August they held their Youth Retreat.  They used the same study we used for the youth in Remedios and at Yumuri.  The Retreat took place over several days; 33 young people attended.

Patio of the Buenavista Church

They incorporated a couple of outings to nearby swimming pool and to the beach by way of this bus.




VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL
Also in August the church held their Vacation Bible School.  Vacation Bible School is for all ages and it is held at night so people who work can attend.  They had over 100 persons attend every night.

THEY ARE STARTING A NEW HOME GROUP
Pastor Omar tells us that they are going to start a new Home Group in the village of Adelas where there is already an existing mission.  Adelas  has a population of 1,500 or so.  A person who lives in the  opposite part of the village from where the mission is became a believer and wants to start a Home Group in his house. 
Thank you for your support and your prayers.
