Voyage a La France! (English)



Blessings for you dear friends!
I´ m writing you from the warm city of Buenos Aires!

During these last months maybe some of you have asked yourselves about me…where is Erika? And what is she doing? Maybe you also heard I was study, working or even getting engaged!
The truth is those were not just rumors in fact, that I did try to do all those things. Being back from the mission field (India where I was for about 6 years) I thought that it will be good to go back to a "normal life" and have a much more stable lifestyle. God has been so good with me that allowed me to learn through these experiences so much more from Him and who I am, my place in His Kingdom.
Above it all I was able to rest, spending quality time with family and put things in perspective.

Some of the principles I´ve learned during this time:

1) God has a very specific purposse with each one of us and He will fulfill it, if we allow Him, even though we have lots of weaknesses.
2) I must focus on that purpose and appreciate it´s uniqueness although it may defer from how it might look in others.3) God trains the one He sends and gives us strength when we do not have any.
4) There is blessing for those who trust in Him and want to obey His word.

As you see there is so much more I can share with you, I hope you understand it doesn´t come from theory but from the work in my heart during this time.

I´m so happy I can continue ahead with the destiny that God has marked for me. Ephesians 2:10 says that God has prepared good works for us in advance! J
I also would like share with you that a new chapter opens for me in the book of life and at the end of April I will be traveling to Paris city (France) to work in a missions mobilization project with a church called Kerygma.

His pastor is called Eliseo Soto, he is peruvian and along with his family, founded the church 25 years ago. The Kerygma church is a very alive and growing congregation located in Paris centre and is formed by more than 500 members, French and South american wanna make a difference in their place and the world. They also count with a School of missions and a Theological Seminary.

"Argentina: "A seedbed to the Nations"

To train and mobilize european and argentinian for the sharing of the Gospel in their cities and to the unreached nations is this project´s purposse and objectives.
During the months of August to October we´ll organize a missions practical training where brothers and sisters will be empowered and trained to go in groups to other countries like Ingland, Spain and Italy to collaborate and share with other churches in the zone.

At this time I am dedicated to the project´s promotion and the intensive learning of french language.


Before the Throne:

-Please pray for new opportunities to share and promote about this missions Project since is an effort to extend God´s Kingdom. Also pray for people who will be part of this, going as volunteers in August.
