Northeast Christian Church is an amazing example of what a partnership truly is! They partner with the Pastor Rafaelito, his wife Griselda, the church as a whole, and the community of Los Guandules. Northeast has also taken on the feeding center within the new church that was just recently completed. Their goal is to have every child (120) involved in the feeding program sponsored by people that attend Northeast. Many of the supporters came last week to visit their children. Below are some pictures of the sweet kids with their sponsors.
Thank you Northeast for your generous hearts, humble spirits, and loving souls!Northeast was able to complete the church in Los Guandules. They have been working so diligently on the building for several years now. The final step was to put paint on the walls! The building is just perfect and is painted with God's hope, love and joy.
The inaugural church service was held in the finished building on Sunday, March 25....there was standing room only!
God reminded everyone of His presence and blessings during the service.
The service began with worship from Dominicans and Haitians, what a joyful noise! Pastor Stuart Jones from Northeast delivered a beautiful message and Pastor Rafaelito followed with words of encouragement and excitement about the new church.
Shortly after the singing began a storm poured down on the building. Several adults looked out the windows at the river flooding the area far below remembering the time when the church used to sit next to the river. Thinking how different it is now for the church to be high on the hill, safe from the destruction of the flooding river. God's blessing are everywhere!
Northeast Christian Church has created a beautiful Partnership with the church in Los Guandules. A special thank you to those who continue to help in the development of the church, allowing the feeding center to run, and providing financial support so the Rodriquez family can do full time ministry.
