Not that we did not have the complete assurance that God would make it happen, but finally, after four mon
ths of working to satisfy the city inspectors, NEW LIFE BAPTIST CHURCH has received permission to use their new building! Glory to God!!
The three stipulations that the City Authorities placed on the church were the following:
** Resolve issues related to the driveway documentation.
** Build a safety barricade to protect our people from the dilapidated adobe wall next door.
** Beautify the front, including planting grass.
As you can see, the issues have been solved. The men and women of the Church went work to complete these requirements, and on Tuesday, Sept. 4th, the City Hall issued our occupancy permit. That is a wonderful and major relief!
This is such good news, we just wanted to post it here, where more and more of our supporters and prayer partners are looking to see the news and requests. Praise God for the patient work done by Pastor Yentzen and our missionary colleague, Duane Cross, to make this all come about.
Gratefully Yours,
David L. Rogers, M.A.Min
Missionary Pastor

About David Rogers, Magister en Artes
Este blog nace de una profunda gratitud al Autor de la vida, al eterno "YO Soy," quien me dio todo lo que tengo y lo que soy. Sin El, nada sería.
Pero como no todos en el mundo han llegado a conocerle, también procuro dar una razón por la fe que tengo. Es una razón no basada en emociones ni en la intuición o el esperar algo mejor. Sino la razón está fundamenta en la verdad eterna, que no es incambiable y que es defensible, la verdad de Dios, el Creador y Sustentador de este mundo.
** Para los que se dedican a las credenciales, aquí están las de este autor, profesor, y misionero: 35 años viviendo en un país adoptivo, 39 años esposo de una misma dama, padre de 4 hijos destacados, abuelo de 4 tiernos nietos, amigo y compañero de colaboradores que han visto mis fallas y aun me llaman su amigo.

This blog is born of deep gratitude to the Author of life, to the eternal "I Am," who gave me everything I have and what I am. Without Him, nothing would be.
But as not everyone in the world has come to know him, I also try to give a reason for the faith I have. It is a reason not based on emotions or intuition or expecting something better. But the reason is based on the eternal truth, which is not unchanging and is defensible, the truth of God, the Creator and Sustainer of this world.
