Dear Praying Friends & Family,

We are grateful for what God has done over the past months here in Colombia. Every soul saved, every child fed, every leader trained is a reminder of His faithfulness. Thank you for enabling this mission through your prayers and giving.

Medical Missions Outreach Clinic

This year’s Optical Clinic campaign was our largest ever — with over 1,800 people receiving free eye exams and prescription glasses across two locations. Nearly 200 volunteers from our churches joined a team of 28 from MMO to make it happen. Most importantly, 275 individuals made professions of faith in Christ! Praise God for how He uses physical care to open doors for eternal healing.

Terriffic Women’s Conference

In October, our churches came together for a special two-day women’s conference held in a rented convention center. More than 100 women attended and were strengthened in their walk with Christ. Each woman received a book on living a Gospel-centered life, a gift that continues the work long after the event.

Ministry Travels

In September, I (Aaron) made a brief trip to Mexico for a discipleship and leadership conference. Then in October, I traveled to the United States to visit and preach in three supporting churches. These opportunities to reconnect and share what God is doing on the field were a great encouragement.

HUGE NEWS: We Are Adopting!

We’re thrilled to share that after more than two years of working with Colombian authorities, we are adopting a baby boy! Our son, Alexander, who is just over one year old and was born here in Bucaramanga, will come home to us on November 20th. The girls are beyond excited — and yes, he’ll have five mothers!

Thank You For Your Partnership

Your prayers and monthly support make all of this possible. Together, we are seeing lives changed and churches strengthened across Colombia. We’ve just released a short video update highlighting what God is doing—we’d love for you to watch and share it! I’ll include the link below.

Thank you for standing with us as we serve in Colombia — we couldn’t do it without you!

With Grateful Hearts,

“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.”
