Yuca is a root plant; it is a starch and can be
eaten in a variety of ways, just like the potato.

We need a couple of farm hands at the finca to help with the daily operations.
For the ministry in Tocuyito. We are planning another Vacation bible School for the children in August.
We desire for more people to join with us in doing spiritual battle against the darkness and wickedness of Tocuyito. Our goal is to have continual warfare going on between the hours of midnight and 6:00a.m.
We truly appreciate all who give to this ministry. At the present we still find that we are not meeting our monthly budget. Currently we need $3,500.00 per month which includes the operation of the finca, the ministry in Tocuyito and the ranchos, and the Saunders' family personal needs. We are still $1,400.00 short of this monthly goal. If you desire to give you may donate online or please send all donations to: Ambassadors For Christ Ministries 654 N Jefferson St. Muncie, IN 47305. Your financial gifts are greatly appreciated!! | |

Dios te bendiga! (God bless you!)
Welcome
to the July issue of our monthly updates.
We trust that you enjoyed a blessed and safe
July 4th Holiday.
We are extremely excited
about what is happening in Venezuela;
specifically in Tocuyito (the area surrounding
the finca). In June we were able
to give Bibles to the children. These children
had never seen a Bible!

PRAYER VIGIL
We are grateful for all
of you who have joined with us in the prayer
vigil. We are praying between the hours
of midnight and 6:00 a.m.
We are excited about what
God is doing in this region. While Pastor
Denise and Ann Johnson were with us, we were
able to pray for a man whose father had sold
him to the devil. Ramon (the man's
name) was walking along the road and as we
passed by I began to share with Pastor Denise
and Ann what Ramon had told us. When
he was 5 years old he had polio
and his father took him to a witch doctor
to be healed. The witch doctor told
Ramon's father to bathe him in the river and
pour rum over his body. He said
that if he did this Ramon would be healed,
but he would be a drunk all of his life.
Ramon was healed and he has been a drunk all
of his life. He is about 60 now.
We know that God is able to break the
curse and we believe that the curse that was
placed on Ramon was broken when we prayed
for him.
We have also met another
neighbor who is a Satan worshipper.
Satan worshippers and those involved in witchcraft
etc. do their sacrificing, prayers and worships between
the hours of midnight - 6:00a.m. Therefore,
we have chosen to do spiritual warfare during
the same hours. Our goal is to tear
the devil's kingdom down!!

JUNE MISSION!
In
June Pastor Denise Millben and Ann Johnson of
Muncie,
Indiana came down to help us with the ministry.
We taught Vacation Bible School for the
children of Tocuyito, we planted a vegetable
garden, we passed out Bibles at the local school,
and we cleared some of the land on the finca.
It
refreshed our souls to have someone
working along side of us. We certainly
appreciate their labor of love.

A LAMP AND A LIGHT
Have you ever traveled by
foot on a country road at night? A country
road without lights. It is extremely dark!
To travel safely on such a road one would
need adequate lighting. Walking such a
road without proper lighting would be dangerous
and foolhardy.
What is adequate lighting for
such a road? You would need a light for
your path and your feet. Just lighting
the road would only allow vision for the path
ahead, in such darkness you would not be able
to see your immediate steps. Just lighting
your feet would only allow you to see the ground
at your feet, you would not see the the full
path in front of you; therefore you need
both a light for the path and a light for your
feet.
This world is dark
and the only way to travel safely
is to have the Word of God, it will be a lamp
for your feet and a light for your path!
Psalms 119:105

"I must work the works of Him who sent me while it is day; the night is coming when no man can work." John 9:4
