Pastor Ramon and Zaida

Pastor Ramon and his wife Zaida have been ministering for the past 5 years in Tamarindo, Nayarit, just 25 minutes from Cofradía. They contacted us last year about wanting to join our ministry. Pastor Goyo and I sat down with them and prayed about it for a while before we made our decision. During our 14th year anniversary celebration, we prayed over them and officially included them into the Cofradia United Ministry along with their church who was in attendance as well.

Pastor Ramon and Zaida are excited to be a part of our ministry and we are excited to have them as well. Pastor Ramon speaks English after having lived in the states for 28 years where the Lord captured his heart while participating in a semi-professional band as a drummer. He quickly left what he was doing and followed the calling of the Lord on his life. He has a huge heart! 

Pastor Ramon and his wife have been married for four years. More than 20 years ago, her sight began to fail and is now legally blind. Zaida helps with worship by playing the piano and sometimes preaches. They are a very special couple! Here is a quick video clip of photos Macx put together for us:

The church in Tamarindo, "Templo Libertad en Cristo" (Freedom in Christ Church), has been meeting in the unoccupied tavern in their town and are in need to relocate. A local from the congregation has donated property for them where they can build a church.

We are looking forward to helping them get this project completed so they can meet together on the own property without the concern of not knowing how long they can meet together in their current location. They have a few people in the congregation that have already donated some supplies. We want to help. Right now, anything will help. They will need thousands of dollars to complete the project.

If you are interested in coming down to help build, please let us know and we can put together a Short-Term Missions Construction team for this church. It would be a huge blessing! Or, if you have the time, come on down and spend a while to help them do as much as they can.

Please consider how you can help financially and be a blessing to our brothers and sisters in Tamarindo. Make a designated donation for "Tamarindo Church" either online or sending a check. Click here to see more details.

Thank you for being a blessing!
