JESUS SAVES MEN FROM THEIR SIN!

We thank the Lord for our Savior Jesus and for letting us celebrate with great joy the Christmas Worship Service this December 15. We eagerly prayed for more than 100 attendants, and since last year God blessed us with 120 attendants, due to our eager prayer. God answered our prayer and this time we had 110 attendants. For this, we were very happy in our hearts, so with great joy and gratitude we offered our worship service to the Lord. At the beginning Acatlan´s choir sang “Peace to the World, Jesus is Born.” Then God blessed us with a very deep and powerful message through S. Enrique, entitled, “Jesus Saves Men from their Sin.” We could learn how much God loved the world that he sent this little baby, as our Savior, so that every sinful man that comes to him with a repentant heart can be forgiven and saved. We pray for all our guests to receive this precious child and may repent before him and be saved. Amen. We worshiped God with a special song called “Enjoy in the Presence or the Lord”, guided by Acatlan´s young girls who were full of joy. Shepherdess Carolina Jr. sang a special hymn called “Oh Holy Night” and brother Aaron Jr. played a violin solo, the hymn: “Oh What a Friend We Have in Jesus.” When the service ended, we had a very cheerful celebration in which our little orchestra interpreted George Phillip´s “Telemann”. Afterward, the sheep and young shepherds joyfully danced two typical Mexican dances from Jalisco State called “El Gusto y el Huizache” and “El Jarabe Tapatío” and the children, with great enthusiasm, danced “El Colás” from Veracruz State and sang and danced to the hymn: “Go Tell it on the Mountains”. Finally, we had a sketch called “A Doctor for Humanity”, in which the sheep, shepherd candidates and shepherds acted very gracefully, interpreting different people, sick from different sins, such as adultery, materialism, laziness, etc, who came to seek a cure from a doctor that represents the world. They found in him only a temporary cure, but continued to be sick, until Jesus came to them and through his word gave them the true solution and forgave their sins.
We praise God, who allowed us a Christmas worship service full of blessing and above all, for all the attendants. We pray that with this heart, full of joy, we may work in 2014, serving his sheep. We also pray for the Christmas worship services in Mexico, Latin America and all the world, that they may be filled with the Holy Spirit and blessing for all their participants. Amen.

Merry Christmas and Happy 2014!

In Christ,

S. Rodolfo Blas
