Gratitude and New Opportunities in Calope

Gratitude and New Opportunities in Calope

With joy and gratitude we look back on Vacation Bible Week in Calope, a village just 20 minutes’ drive from Quevedo. It was a special first step in evangelism from our church.

What began with handing out invitations at the school grew into a week in which we were able to meet 60 children and several parents. A special moment came when a village resident offered his house as a location to continue the meetings—a clear open door for the Gospel in Calope!

The dedication of our hermanos from the church was heartwarming and encouraging. Monday will be a special day: the children who took part over the past week will receive shoeboxes from Samaritan’s Purse—a tangible reminder of the love and care that surrounded them this week.

Would you continue praying? That these first steps in Calope may lead to lasting fruit, and that the open door may truly become a place where God’s love can grow and flourish.
