Mandresa’s news – July 2011

Mandresa Family — Tue, 05 Jul 2011 15:31:13 +0000

Nathanael turned 6 months and weighs 7 kilos, sleeps very well and already began to eat solid foods (and still breastfeeding). Pablo finished his degree in Theology. We continue to work on planting a Church in a predominant Republican district. We also continue helping to plant another Church in one of the most troubled neighborhoods in North Belfast. God showed us that we must continue to be involved in mission work in Northern Ireland. Therefore we are staying here until God shows us where to go next. Thank God we both have secular jobs but we are praying for financial support for Pablo so he could spend more time in ministry. Please pray for safety because we are both ministering in very complicated places, with violence and sectarianism problems.
We have seen God’s hand at work in different people we have met. Both projects continue to grow in maturity and number. Pray for those attending the Bible studies, the parenting course, the primary school and the different people we’ve met and we are trying to share the Gospel with. We thank God for the privilege we have to be working for His Kingdom in this part of the planet. Thank you very much to all of you who pray for us and keep in touch. Grace and Peace, The Mandresas.

Nathanael cumplió 6 meses, ya pesa 7 kilos, duerme muy bien gracias a Dios y comenzó a comer alimentos sólidos. Igual sigue tomando pecho. Con respecto a los estudios Pablo termino la Licenciatura en Teología. Seguimos colaborando en plantar una Iglesia en un barrio Republicano (donde la mayoría de los locales no puede o quiere ingresar). También continuamos ayudando en plantar otra Iglesia en uno de los barrios más conflictivos de Belfast. Dios nos mostro que debemos seguir involucrados en el trabajo misionero en Irlanda del Norte. Gracias a Dios ambos tenemos trabajos seculares pero estamos orando por soporte financiero para que Pablo pueda invertir más tiempo en el ministerio. Por favor oren por seguridad porque los dos estamos ministrando en lugares muy complicados con mucha violencia y sectarismo; problema que como muchos ya saben este país acarrea históricamente. Hemos visto la mano de Dios trabajar en las distintas personas con las que nos reunimos. Ambos proyectos siguen creciendo en madurez y numero. Oren por las personas que asisten a los estudios Bíblicos, el curso para padres, la escuela primaria y las distintas personas que estamos discipulando. Queremos dar gracias a Dios por el privilegio que tenemos de poder estar trabajando para su obra en esta parte del planeta. Muchas gracias a todos los que oran por nosotros y se mantienen en contacto. Gracia y Paz, Los Mandresa.

In March, a friend who is studying Theology in England, Claudio, came to help us as part of his placement. It was a great help and blessing to have him. He assisted to all of our meetings and helped me in visiting people. We also walked the streets together, did some door to door evangelism and shared a word of encouragement his last Sunday with us.

In relation with the Cliftonville Community Regeneration Forum we attended a couple of gatherings in which I helped providing them photo coverage of the events. I am happy they are pleased to use the pictures in different media. During those occasions we have the opportunity to connect with many of the people working in different organization in the Cliftonville area.
