Update from VRBC missionary Talsy Vega

Please read on for an update from VRBC-supported missionary Talsy Vega, who was able to visit VRBC in February with her daughter Ruth.


 
Blessings:
The Word in Luke 12:12 encourages us to trust in the Holy Spirit, specially when we do not know what to say, for in the proper time He will give the words to say, we only need to open our mouths and trust that the words, His words, will be placed in us in order to speak them out.  I am sharing this because, when we return from the e3 conference las February, I just did not know how to put into words everything we received.  We prayed for opportunities, to serve while in our home town and not in the mountains or in another city.
 
So since February our Lord has allowed the moment to share with the women's leaders from my home church about training them with the small group format used by the I Am Second groups used by e3; they were so excited for they were looking for ways on how, to provide pastoral care but at the same time provide a way of nurture the women in church in order to reach others that do not know about the Lord yet.  So far we have had two training sessions with them and tomorrow we will get together in order to follow up on how they are doing.
 
Besides this and through them, doors have being opened at the women's jail where about 12 women get together with us.  In this case, it has not being easy for they are fully concentrated on the things they have to do in order to get released from jail.  They search for prayer, thinking that it is some kid of magic behind prayer that will bring freedom to them.  In this case, it is taking a while for them to grasp the stories and concentrate in them in order to be enriched with the teachings behind the passages, but we will not give up on them.  In jail they are assigned to homes, which are blocks where 5-7 women share a space and they call this, homes.  They have a nice opportunity to start small sharing groups in their homes (no pictures for you are not allow to take them while in jail with the ladies).
 
So these are the two things in which we are involve while at home, so would appreciate your prayers that the Lord will keep opening opportunities to keep on training and serving.
 
On the family side, the three last kids that are still at home with me already have started their studies, Ruth is specially excited as finally she has started her studies in business adm. Little Talsy her nursing and David continues on his studies on system adm and assisting in the ministry as needed.  Moises Jr and family as well as Josep are doing well in the business that God has given them, may God continue to bless them.  They are making plans to join us for easter weekend. 
 
We are also sending the working agenda that, until now, we have for this year. Pls pray for:
  1. Protection as travels are being made for training.
  2. New areas that are open for future work. Pastors have called from Chiriqui Grande, David and the area where Juselino is working in order to have training and teams.
  3. The vision of seen new areas being reached, equipping the Church for the call of lifting Jesus up every where and developing a team in order to multiply the work of serving be accomplish.
  4. resources in order to carry all this.
  5. of course my family and the coaches families (Juselino, Pastor Eudilio, Missionary Mateo, Pastor Enrique).
  6. For the Lord to be glorified in everything that is being done.
God bless you as you join Him in the work being done.
In Him,
Talsy

"Anxious for nothing,
Praying for everything,
Thankful for anything,
Peace of God”
 
Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Phil 4:4-7
