Twenty Years of Silence Ends in Uruguay
Is there something you can think of that
you have not done in the last twenty years? For many of us we would
have a hard time remembering where we were or even what we were
doing twenty years ago. If you were to ask our Alliance Church
president here in Uruguay, Rene Echveria that same question, he
would tell you quickly...that the Uruguayan Alliance church has not
planted a new church in twenty years. Those twenty years of silence
is soon to end, it is exciting and you the Alliance Women will have
an important part to help start this new church.
The Finished Product!
Last
August our church had the privilege of sending a short term team to
assist the construction of the Nuevo Renacer church in Santo
Domingo, the Dominican Republic. Our group of 11 was a link in
a long chain of other stateside churches who sent down their people,
time, money, and prayer to bless our brothers in Christ from the DR.
Last month, each of the short-term teams, and especially the
believers at Nueva Renacer had much to rejoice and celebrate over.
The work was completed, the building project finished and the people
were ready to dedicate their new church sanctuary.
Missionaries Bruce & Becky Dyke sent us some of the photos so we
could praise God for his faithfulness!
MISSIONARY CLOSET
Each year, we host visiting missionaries during the LAC Missions Conference.
Each missionary that visits LAC is given the
opportunity to choose any needed items from our “Missionary Closet” to
take for their personal or ministry use as our gift to them.
Please help us stock the “Closet” with
Items listed. Items donated

Adopt a Missionary
LAC's Missions Committee would like to announce what is called "Adopt a Missionary Program". This program is developed to help encourage those who have been called to the Mission field. It involves choosing a missionary and his/her family, praying for them and their needs regularly, corresponding with them and sending birthday, anniversary and holiday greetings. In a nut shell - personally developing a relationship and reminding them they are thought of, loved and appreciated.
For more information regarding the "Adopt a Missionary" program please contact the church office.
