Bolivia Prayer Letter: The Quisbert Family

Dear Brothers in Christ:

Greetings in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Our family started this year thinking on the following promise: "The Lord is not slack
concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not will-
ing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.” 2 Peter 3:9.

It’s a great privilege and blessing for our family to work together with the PMU Team in
the mission’s ministry.

Vacation Bible School

Our VBS was held January 19- 24, 2009 from


10:00 AM – 12:30 PM. We registered 42 children
and had an attendance of 35 per day sometimes 40.
New brothers in Christ have been involved in this
work. Fernando Cuba who came with his two sons
(He helped us distribute the snacks, cookies, juices,
coke and candies to the children.) and Wilson
Mercado, a young adult who studies agronomy at
the University. (He helped us teach the songs with
Martin and Gonzaga). We are thankful for the ma-
terials that the Team Timothy left last summer. All these materials were used for the work
with the children in our VBS. Sometimes the materials for the children are expensive here
in Bolivia. We made a campaign to collect all the pencils, colors, rulers, and materials that
the children don’t use in the school. We used these recycled material for our VBS. It was a
very economical VBS.

On February 14th at 2:30 PM, we started our regu-


lar meeting of AWANA Club. Please pray for the
children's ministry in Bolivia.

New opportunities for the Gospel in Bolivia.

The new political Constitution of the state was ap-


proved on January 25. In the last Constitution,
article three said that Bolivia recognizes and upholds the Apostolic Roman Catholic relig-
ion as the official religion of Bolivia and the freedom for other religions.
Now the new Constitution in the article four says that the state respects and guarantees
freedom of religion and of spiritual beliefs and that the state is independent from religion.
This is good for us. Since the foundation of Bolivia, the Roman Catholic Church has
dominated this country and the government. Now this church is out of privileges. It will
be a great opportunity for us. We need men and women to preach the Gospel in this coun-
try.

We thank you for your part in our minis-


try and for your support, prayers, and love in
the church planting efforts.
