The missionaries, supported by the Southern Baptist International Mission Board, showed us around the facility God provided that allows them to train Venezuelan youth for the domestic and foreign mission fields.
The school sits on the grounds of the largest Christian camp in Venezuela. Every year, hundreds of Venezuelans attend camps where they hear the gospel, are strengthened in their Christian faith, are trained to share God’s word with others and enjoy fellowship together.
The missionaries explained that the camp and their ministry in preparing Venezuelans to fulfill the Great Commission is made possible through the Lottie Moon Offering, taken at Christmas time in Southern Baptist churches throughout North America.
It was really encouraging to see what God is doing through resources made available when his people respond in obedience and give with a cheerful heart. Because Baptists in the United States give, people in Venezuela not only are accepting Christ, but also are growing in a personal relationship with him and then making disciples of all the nations. Glory to God!
