MARKING OUR GROWTH<\/strong><\/p>\n

I would venture to say that in the home of many of you I could find a door post that has been used to mark the growth of your children. This was a practice for many us as the family grew we wanted to mark it. Some door posts look like giant rulers. I\u2019m glad we don\u2019t keep track horizontally of our growth, I\u2019m afraid I would have many marks on my wall. Looking at the marks probably also brought back memories of your child\u2019s life, some good and some not so good. Regardless of the circumstances of life your child kept growing and you have the marks as a record of their growth to look back on. In LAMCAR, we also keep track of our growth and I can go back to a particular year and tell you where a country was with their membership and church count. The years of great growth and the years of not so great growth are noted. Just recently I received several reports of great growth from some of our leaders. In spite of political difficulties and in some of the most difficult situations in some countries God is still giving increase. Two countries I want to share about are Venezuela and Argentina.<\/p>\n

VENEZUELA<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

All you have to do is turn on the news and you will probably hear something about the atrocities taking place in Venezuela. In spite of the fact that they are suffering some of the worse poverty in their history and protests almost every day, the church continues to thrive. National leader, Apostle Hernando Brochero recently shared, \u201cAs of 2015 to the present the national church has had a great growth. The spiritual atmosphere has given us a supernatural push with great results that have provoked growth, and advances in God\u2019s Kingdom. We are living in a great spiritual time.\u201d He share that 2016 was a year of reinforcing relations and that the churches are stronger and continue to grow.<\/p>\n

In his own words, \u201cA great spiritual time!\u201d the words of a leader who in spite of the political atmosphere he and our church families choose to walk in the Spiritual atmosphere. He shares that they are planting 30 new churches right now. The door post is marked at 20,000 members but get ready for the growth spurt as they mark the door post and walk out what God is doing.<\/p>\n

ARGENTINA<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

I cant help but get excited for what God is doing in Argentina. Another country that has gone up and down with their economy and political problems. Regardless of this God is blessing our churches in this time. Superintendent Enrique Coronel reports that the Argentina General Conference, recently held this year, had one of the largest attendants ever. They are rejoicing for the growth over the last quadrennial. They are marking the door post at 23,400 members. Praise the Lord for this great growth.<\/p>\n

I could go on and on sharing what God is doing in other countries like Colombia, Guatemala, Peru, Mexico and in the Dominican Republic but due to time and space I\u2019ll just say THANK YOU LORD. Let me also say thank you for your support and prayer for these ministries it\u2019s your support that is like a seed planted.<\/p>\n

“I have planted, Apolos watered; but God gave the increase.” 1 Corinthians 3:6<\/strong><\/p>\n

Esta fue una pr\u00e1ctica para muchos como la familia creci\u00f3 quer\u00edamos marcar. Algunos postes de puerta parecen gigantes gobernantes. Me alegro de que no mantenemos un seguimiento horizontal de nuestro crecimiento, me temo que tendr\u00eda muchas marcas en mi pared. Mirando las marcas probablemente tambi\u00e9n trajo recuerdos de la vida de su hijo, algunos buenos y otros no tan buenos. Sin importar las circunstancias de la vida su ni\u00f1o continu\u00f3 creciendo y usted tiene las marcas como registro de su crecimiento para mirar detr\u00e1s encendido. En LAMCAR, tambi\u00e9n mantenemos un registro de nuestro crecimiento y puedo regresar a un a\u00f1o en particular y decirle d\u00f3nde estaba un pa\u00eds con su membres\u00eda y n\u00famero de iglesias. Se notan los a\u00f1os de gran crecimiento y los a\u00f1os de crecimiento no tan grande. Recientemente recib\u00ed varios informes de gran crecimiento de algunos de nuestros l\u00edderes. A pesar de las dificultades pol\u00edticas y en algunas de las situaciones m\u00e1s dif\u00edciles en algunos pa\u00edses, Dios est\u00e1 dando a\u00fan m\u00e1s. Dos pa\u00edses que quiero compartir son Venezuela y Argentina. VENEZUELA<\/u><\/strong> Todo lo que tienes que hacer es encender las noticias y probablemente escuchar\u00e1s algo sobre las atrocidades que tienen lugar en Venezuela. A pesar del hecho de que est\u00e1n sufriendo algunos de la peor pobreza en su historia y las protestas casi todos los d\u00edas, la iglesia sigue prosperando. L\u00edder nacional, el ap\u00f3stol Hernando Brochero comparti\u00f3 recientemente, \"Desde el a\u00f1o 2015 hasta la actualidad la iglesia nacional ha tenido un gran crecimiento. La atm\u00f3sfera espiritual nos ha dado un impulso sobrenatural con grandes resultados que han provocado crecimiento y avances en el Reino de Dios. Vivimos en un gran tiempo espiritual. \"\u00c9l comparte que 2016 fue un a\u00f1o de reforzar las relaciones y que las iglesias son m\u00e1s fuertes y contin\u00faan creciendo. En sus propias palabras, \"Un gran tiempo espiritual\", las palabras de un l\u00edder que, a pesar de la atm\u00f3sfera pol\u00edtica que \u00e9l y nuestras familias de la iglesia eligen para caminar en la atm\u00f3sfera espiritual. \u00c9l comparte que est\u00e1n plantando 30 nuevas iglesias ahora mismo. El poste de la puerta est\u00e1 marcado con 20.000 miembros, pero prep\u00e1rate para el brote de crecimiento al marcar el poste de la puerta y salir de lo que Dios est\u00e1 haciendo. ARGENTINA<\/u><\/strong> No puedo ayudarme, sino excitarme por lo que Dios est\u00e1 haciendo en Argentina. Otro pa\u00eds que ha subido y bajado con su econom\u00eda y problemas pol\u00edticos. Independientemente de esto, Dios est\u00e1 bendiciendo a nuestras iglesias en este tiempo. El Superintendente Enrique Coronel informa que la Conferencia General de Argentina, celebrada recientemente este a\u00f1o, ten\u00eda uno de los asistentes m\u00e1s grandes de la historia. Se regocijan por el crecimiento durante el \u00faltimo cuatrienio. Est\u00e1n marcando el poste de la puerta en 23.400 miembros. Alaben al Se\u00f1or por este gran crecimiento. Podr\u00eda seguir adelante compartiendo lo que Dios est\u00e1 haciendo en otros pa\u00edses como Colombia, Guatemala, Per\u00fa, M\u00e9xico y en la Rep\u00fablica Dominicana, pero debido al tiempo y el espacio, solo dir\u00e9 GRACIAS SE\u00d1OR. Perm\u00edtanme decirles tambi\u00e9n gracias por su apoyo y oraci\u00f3n por estos ministerios, es su apoyo que es como una semilla plantada. \"He plantado, Apolos regado, pero Dios dio el aumento.\" 1 Corintios 3: 6<\/strong> Solicite recibir nuestras e-noticias enviando un correo electr\u00f3nico a: dclowers@iphc.org<\/em>","author_name":"","jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2017\/07\/ClowersDanOnline.jpg","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/pb62Ar-p9","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1559","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1559"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1559\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1570"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1559"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1559"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/iphc.org\/missions\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1559"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
