A Glorious Beginning: The First Evangelistic Crusade in

GUATEMALA

“So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” — Romans 10:17

The month of June will forever be etched in our hearts as the start of an extraordinary season of revival. Guatemala served as the backdrop, and the beautiful community of Jocotán had the honor of being the gateway for this powerful series of Evangelistic Crusades.

People traveled from near and far, gathering in one place with a single focus and a clear purpose: to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Sowing into the Hearts of the Little Ones

Our day started early with a very special focus: the next generation. That afternoon, we hosted a special event just for the local children.

It was incredible to see so many children gathered together, smiling and ready to hear God’s Word. Through:

Upbeat worship songs
Interactive games and fun activities
Age-appropriate Bible teachings

We were able to share the message of salvation in a fun, dynamic, and love-filled way. They are a vital part of the Kingdom, too!

A Night of Glory at the Emanuel Foundation

As evening approached, the anticipation was palpable. Right there, on the grounds of the Emanuel Foundation in the Agua Caliente neighborhood of Jocotán, the stage was set for the main Evangelistic Crusade.

The response from the community was overwhelming. People came hungry and thirsty for the presence of God, creating an atmosphere charged with faith and devotion.

Highlights of the Evening:

Praise and Worship:

Special musical performances set the spiritual atmosphere for what God was about to do.

The Message:

The infallible Word of God was preached with power by missionary Brother Evan Redman.

The Touch of the Holy Spirit:

As the altar call was made, the Holy Spirit moved deeply upon hearts, leading many to repentance and freedom.

118 Souls for Christ: All Glory to God!

God kept blowing us away. When we counted the total for the day—combining the kids’ outreach and the evening service—118 people surrendered their lives to Christ and accepted the Gospel!

Seeing families restored, children giving their hearts to Jesus, and adults weeping with joy as they experienced His forgiveness was the ultimate reward. It was a powerful reminder that the Gospel truly is the power of God unto salvation.

To Him be all the glory, honor, and dominion forever and ever!
