Dear Friends and Sponsors,

Sharing the Gospel Through Art

There is more than one way to tell people about the love of Jesus and the plan of salvation.

In April a small team from South Carolina visited. Pastors Angel and Magaly Santos use art to share the gospel. Instead of the wordless book, paint tells the story. Black represents sin, red the blood of Jesus. When we trust in Him, our hearts are made white as snow. Green is growth, by reading the Word, praying, going to church. And yellow makes us think of Heaven.

The children in the schools in Sabaneta and El Pino were blessed by this visit.  The first day the children made a salvation mural. The second day they painted a picture of a clay vessel. They enjoyed being creative! The lesson was from 2 Corinthians 4:6 For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ. But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.

We ministered to the parents in a separate service where the team gave each participant a much desired present: a backpack with school and art supplies.

Another sweet moment was when we gave the backpack with presents a sponsor sent to his student in Villa Tapia. He smelled the new socks, the sneakers, even the notebooks. It was so wonderful for him to enjoy such a big present! We were filled with joy.

Thank you for being a sponsor. If you want to send a letter, photo or present, I will be in the US in June and can bring it back. You can send it to my son’s house in Florida. Please make sure it’s addressed to me and arrives before June 20. The address is 7241 Regina Drive, Englewood, FL 34224. If you donate, but don’t have a specific student, I can assign you one. Let me know if you want to sponsor a boy or a girl. It’s just $25 a month and makes all the difference for a child to go to school with friends, learn about the Lord, and enjoy a hot nutritious meal every day. Every prayer and donation help!

You can easily donate right here on our website, or send a check made out to TeachFeedLove and mail it to TMCI, PO BOX 1761, Columbia, SC 29202. Thank you.

We had a few other special things happen in the last few weeks. I was honored by a Haitian-Dominican organization for our work with the Haitian schools. We posted a need for benches for a church and school in Haiti, and a sponsor sent the money. Just Saturday I presented a pastor the money needed to put the larger roof on her church. I know that God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things.  Thanks for being part of the team! May the Lord reward you for your generosity!

Many thanks, and God bless you richly.

Your missionaries,
