No Turning Back
“You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord,” and my servant whom I have chosen…” (Isaiah 43:10)
Pastor Efrain made the decision to surrender his life to the Lord’s service at the early age of 14 and has never turned back. He went on to serve in Sunday school and then later as a Youth Group leader. In 1998, the Lord called him to serve as pastor in the mountain town of San Jose de Quiero. Since that day, Pastor Efrain daily repeats his vows to serve God by helping those in need and without hope.
It has been 24 years since he began pastoring but his love for the Lord and zeal to service His kingdom has not diminished at all. He considers it a great blessing to serve the King of kings and the Lord of lords by reaching his community with the gospel of Jesus Christ in and through the power of the Holy Spirit.
As the whole world is facing very challenging times, he held worship services outdoors for past 7 months, taking necessary precautions, with the single desire to see the body of Christ to continually mature into true disciples of Jesus for His glory. Though now he is at the ripe age of 61, his greatest desire is to continue to be an instrument of God to preach the gospel wherever and whenever he can.
In recent years Pastor Efrain has dealt with chronic health conditions and is unable to afford the long term medication costs. But his utmost confidence in God as his provider is never fading even during this difficult times.
As co-laborers in God’s kingdom, we are praying for Pastor Efrain’s health and also for a sponsor who feels led to support and encourage him as he faithfully stewards the calling God has placed on his life. As always, we humbly ask for you to join us in prayer to a Father in heaven who hears us.
