The Encounter ended on Sunday at our Celebration Service.  Sara Yáñez, our Worship Leader, started the service with praise and worship, and the altar was full of people worshiping God.  The message, this time, was given by all those who attended the Encounter.  All those who attended gave testimony of how God had blessed them and challenged them to live renewed for Him and serve Him and others.  For many, there were a number of obstacles that almost kept them from attending.  We all knew that the enemy wanted them to lose out on their blessing from the Lord.  In the end, many persevered and reaped a great blessing from the Holy Spirit while at the Encounter.  Saturday night was spectacular!  The children began to feel the presence of God and cried or raised their hands in worship to God.  It was amazing!  Now many of them are ready to join our local Bible College or the Leaders' Academy to continue the process of growth and transformation and serve God wholeheartedly.  Thank you Jesus for what You have done, what You are doing, and for what You will do!
