Videos of Preaching and Altar Ministry

Check out these videos from Pat ministering in Ecuador! The first is a short clip of Pat preaching with energy to over 1000 people in downtown Guayaquil:

What an impassioned altar call for salvation!  Too bad the video doesn't show what happened afterward. If you want Pat and Daniel to tell us what the response was to the altar call, send an email to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

The second is a snapshot of praying for people who come forward after the message:

I'm not sure this is the Baptist Church in Duran although that's what the title says. Looks like CEAD to me. 

Pat and Daniel got home yesterday. We can't wait to hear from them directly the awesome thing our God did for our friends in Ecuador!

Return, Revelation and Rewards

In honor of Ray Watson leading his first team to Ecuador, for the next 3 days we will be publishing parts of his journal from his trip to Ecuador last May. 

PART ONE: RETURN!

I have just returned from Ecuador completing my seventh missions trip with Heart of Titus and wanted to share a little bit of what God accomplished on this trip. July 2009 will mark 2 years since I was there and a lot of changes have occurred. They just reelected their president for a second term and he seems to be proceeding full steam ahead with a very active socialist agenda to bring the people more dependent on government and the programs they will provide.

Other changes include a nationalization of utilities and phone service, trying to change the status of churches from religious organizations to national foundations, and recognition of more liberal rights for gays and lesbians. There is also talk of a conversion of currency from the American dollar to a formation of a new currency between Ecuador, Bolivia and Venezuela.
 
All of this, in the natural, paints a pretty dull picture. But to Christians whose true hope is in the Lord, what exciting times we have to look forward to. The return of Jesus is closer than many of us can comprehend.
 
The growth of our local Heart of Titus group in Ecuador has really expanded and has caught the true vision of what servanthood is all about. Many of them made the late night trip to the airport to greet us and take us to the Christian embassy where we would be staying for most of our trip. The embassy has also changed since my last trip. The facilities are very modern and clean but a bit far out from the center of town area which make coordination of travel and getting to our meetings more difficult. We still managed to accomplish all of our prepared agenda even though at times it didn’t fit our time table, it did fit Gods’.  
 

Once we arrived at the embassy, our translator, Pastor Miguel insisted he must lead us into the national anthem of Ecuador and the USA. I knew I had made the return to a country I had missed and excitement jumped in my heart at the anticipation of the new adventure God was ready to walk with me in and the revelations he was going to bring forth.

 
NEXT INSTALLMENT:  REVELATION!
