A little Update

It’s been a while since I posted anything. I am sorry for my lethargy in writing. Busyness cannot be an excuse because people always find time to do what matters to them. Here is a little update about my present situation.

I am grateful to be a second-semester sophomore in Pastoral Pre-Seminary Studies at Moody Bible Institute. I am currently taking these courses that I love so much: Hermeneutics, Pastoral Ethics, Intro to Philosophy, Intro to Psychology, and Christianity and Western Culture II.

I am learning so much both spiritually and relationally, and the Lord has been blessing me with great friends and prayer partners and a very welcoming Assembly of God church that I attend.

How do I make it financially speaking? Well, I came close many times to discouragement and despair in face of financial challenges but the Lord has proved Himself faithful as always. For instance, last month two anonymous donors sent a total of $1,100 toward my school bills while I was close to be in trouble with deadlines of some of my room and board fees. This was one of the many miracles He has done in this area in my life. I currently work 20 hours a week for Moody Distance Learning Center as a Student Resource Assistant (fancy name for customer service type of job), which helps a little bit with my expenses.

I am so excited and looking forward to accomplishing my B.A. degree in order to enroll in Seminary for M.Div. The vision–although I am open to God to change it whenever He wills–is still to use this training to train Haitian Pastors in Haiti who never got the chance to obtain formal Biblical training. Building a Bible College to this effect is a plan that warms my heart and lights up my face when I think of it. You would be amazed to know how much the church in Haiti is suffering from spiritual malnutrition because of lack of competent preachers and spiritual leaders. As a matter of fact, some of these ministers sadly cannot even read the Bible for themselves really well. Thus I am convinced that God put this burden on my heart so I can use the training He is entrusting me with so I can be a blessing for Haiti somehow.

Feel free to contact me via this blog or by e-mail at weltwok@gmail.com if you want to partner with me in any manner either now for my present challenges or future ministry goals. Feel free to share your prayer requests as well. We are called to carry one another’s burden and I want to use this blog to connect with others in this calling.

God bless you richly.
