Greetings in the precious name of Jesus!<\/strong><\/p>\n

It is a joy to be with partners and friends to thank them personally for their continued prayers and unwavering support. We have been itinerating in the U.S. since December 6, 2018, from California to South and North Carolina. God is good! He always provides us a place to stay and a car to use to get around. We are thankful to the following churches that we have visited for their kindness, warmth, hospitality, and generosity: Christ\u2019s International Fellowship, Berean Christian Ministries, Jesus is Lord, Christian City Church, Cross to Life, Word of Life, Filipino Christian Church, Springfield PH Church, Laurinburg PH Church, Woodville PH Church, Abundant Life Church, Goose Creek PH Church, and Brock\u2019s Chapel.<\/p>\n

We are honored and delighted to testify of the goodness and faithfulness of God. He continually prospers and blesses the ministry in Thailand and the neighboring countries (Laos, Vietnam, and Myanmar). On December 23, there were 24 Buddhists who received the Lord Jesus during the Christmas celebration at our church in Don Muang, Bangkok. On January 24-26, Pastor Steve Willis and Jim Cox of Valley Harvest Ministries in Virginia conducted a leadership seminar at Indo-China Missions Training Center (Mekong Bible Training Center) in Mae Sai with the help of Pastor Chi Chang, Pastor Big Laddawan, and missionaries, Doug and Jill Nelson. It was a great seminar, attended by 40 leaders coming from Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, and Myanmar. The theme of the conference was \u201cBe Faithful.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nuestro sab\u00e1tico<\/span><\/h2>\r\n\"\"<\/a> Desde diciembre de 2018 hasta febrero de 2019, nuestra familia tom\u00f3 un a\u00f1o sab\u00e1tico de tres meses en Estados Unidos, M\u00e9xico y Chile. Se pidi\u00f3 a Femke que fuera oradora en la Asamblea Mundial de la IPHC en Santiago, Chile, en febrero. Matthew naci\u00f3 en Chile, por lo que parec\u00eda ser una oportunidad \u00fanica en la vida para llevar a toda la familia a conocer lugares en los que nunca antes hab\u00edan estado. El a\u00f1o sab\u00e1tico super\u00f3 nuestras expectativas y nos gustar\u00eda compartir un testimonio que ilustre lo que experimentamos.\r\n

Cada creyente puede curar a los enfermos<\/span><\/h2>\r\nVicente, de quince a\u00f1os, estaba saliendo con uno de sus amigos de la infancia que se describ\u00eda a s\u00ed mismo como ateo o agn\u00f3stico. Su amigo comenz\u00f3 a hablar sobre su sensaci\u00f3n de vac\u00edo y c\u00f3mo ten\u00eda que haber algo \"m\u00e1s\". Esto es cuando Vicente comenz\u00f3 a hablarle de Jes\u00fas y de c\u00f3mo puede llenar cada vac\u00edo que podamos sentir. Juntos, oraron y su amigo experiment\u00f3 algo nuevo y maravilloso cuando le pidi\u00f3 a Jes\u00fas que llenara su coraz\u00f3n. Vicente estaba s\u00faper emocionado despu\u00e9s de esa noche, pero tambi\u00e9n quer\u00eda que la familia de su amigo viniera a conocer a Cristo. Cuando escuch\u00f3 que Matthew Helland ven\u00eda a hablar a su iglesia, decidi\u00f3 que era el momento de invitar a la familia de su amigo. El padre de su amigo, tambi\u00e9n ateo, sufr\u00eda de un gran dolor de espalda que Vicente cre\u00eda que Dios sanar\u00eda esa noche. En la mente de Vicente, Matthew iba a orar por el padre de su amigo y \u00e9l ser\u00eda sanado. Cuando lleg\u00f3 ese domingo, Mateo comenz\u00f3 a orar por los enfermos y muchos fueron sanados. Sin embargo, se dio la vuelta y les dijo a todos que cada creyente puede curar a los enfermos a trav\u00e9s de la oraci\u00f3n. Dio cinco pasos para orar por sanidad y les dijo a todos que oraran el uno por el otro. Vicente fue al padre de su amigo, or\u00f3 por \u00e9l y se cur\u00f3 instant\u00e1neamente. Durante los tres d\u00edas anteriores, sufri\u00f3 un dolor extremo en la espalda debido a la artritis y una hernia de disco. Luego, cuando Vicente or\u00f3 por \u00e9l en el nombre de Jes\u00fas, todo el dolor desapareci\u00f3. Estaba muy contento y en shock. Al d\u00eda siguiente, el padre de su amigo escribi\u00f3 el siguiente mensaje al padre de Vicente: \"Durante 55 a\u00f1os, he sido muy c\u00ednico. Gracias por ayudarme a cambiar mi forma de ver las cosas\". Cada creyente puede orar por los enfermos y ver a las personas sanadas. Orar por la sanidad de alguien (adem\u00e1s de usar otros dones espirituales) es una forma poderosa de compartir el evangelio. En los \u00faltimos meses, hemos dado escuelas de profec\u00eda en Oklahoma, California, M\u00e9xico, Chile y los Pa\u00edses Bajos. Nos han sorprendido muchas historias de sanidad que han tenido lugar cuando los creyentes \"normales\" salen por fe y oran por los enfermos. Varias personas que acudieron a los servicios caminando con muletas pudieron irse sin ellos despu\u00e9s de que alguien or\u00f3 por ellos. Continuamos recibiendo testimonios de los lugares a los que fuimos y \"activamos\" a las personas para que oren por los enfermos y profeticen.\r\n

Profec\u00eda: \u00a1S\u00f3lo hazlo!<\/span><\/h2>\r\nTambi\u00e9n nos complace anunciar el lanzamiento de nuestro \u00faltimo libro, que es el primero de una serie de libros sobre temas como la profec\u00eda, la sanidad divina y el evangelismo del poder. Este libro se llama \"Profec\u00eda: \u00a1Solo hazlo!\" Viene con m\u00e1s de treinta ejercicios pr\u00e1cticos que pueden realizarse individualmente o en grupo para cultivar su capacidad de escuchar la voz de Dios y profetizar.\r\n

Rinc\u00f3n familiar<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\r\nTodo el ingl\u00e9s y espa\u00f1ol de los ni\u00f1os ha mejorado significativamente en los \u00faltimos meses. Recuerdos preciados se hicieron con viejos y nuevos amigos. Nuestros hijos casi no quer\u00edan regresar a Holanda debido a todos los momentos especiales que tuvimos. El amor y la atenci\u00f3n que recibimos fueron muy especiales. Ahora, estamos contentos de estar de vuelta en casa en \u00c1msterdam, donde podemos recoger nuestro ministerio en el Distrito de la Luz Roja y con nuestra iglesia local. Nos sentimos muy honrados de poder vivir y ministrar aqu\u00ed en Europa y en todo el mundo. Gracias a personas como usted, que oran fielmente y nos apoyan financieramente. \u00a1Muchas gracias!
