Ana Cristina Rincon and I have been praying about starting a ministry for pregnant women considering abortion for a year now. The dream would be to start there and expand the ministry to include adoption programs, working with prostitutes and family counseling. After so much prayer it seems like things are finally starting to happen...
BIG NEWS: This week the director from the similar ministry in Tyler, TX, is coming this week to visit with us and do a conference with our school!!! We have started saving to buy a house or a farm to house girls during their pregnancy so we can give them counsel and a safe place to live while they decide if they want to keep their baby or find a family to adopt. Friday Cristina and I lead intercession for our base, and afterwards two students said they want to commit to our ministry and as we're starting they want to study majors that will be useful (like nursing).
Today I set up an email for the ministry. Just doing that made it feel like this is for real, more than a dream. But it's also a bit overwhelming, we don't know where or how we're going to start meeting women. So please pray:
• that we will have guidance and that our time with the Tyler director will give us good ideas
• an opportunity for Cristinan to visit the ministry in Tyler
• support from local churches and ministries in Medellin
• for more workers
• #1, that soon we would meet our first pregnant woman to start loving and supporting
