Medellin

The church in Medellin is comprised of mainly university students, but they are shifting their emphasis to reach couple and families. Several strong leaders assist the Medellin pastor, making a well-rounded gift mix. With these talented laborers reaching out to the community, significant growth is expected in the upcoming year.

As with many in Colombia, financial difficulties are a major concern. Medellin's pastor is attending the university there to earn a degree in social work. This will allow him to become bi-vocational, with reasonable work hours. However, this is more than a year away.

The pastor's wife has a Saturday job, when he can stay home with their children. She only makes $100 a month.

Please keep the work in Medellin in your prayers as they reach out to young families in the area.
