September 2020

Saludos, amigos! Big updates coming your way!

Looking Ahead 👀
Just in the past few weeks, the Lord has started making a way for me to make plans to move!! El Salvador's airport is set to open September 19, and with that in mind I am working with Ivo (my supervising pastor in La Libertad) and Reliant towards buying a ticket.

After speaking with Ivo, we've decided that the best departure goal is the end of October. This gives Ivo time to look for housing for me and gives me time to finish support raising and to say my goodbyes. Although businesses and commerce in El Salvador started opening August 23rd, Ivo said the La Libertad church will start congregating in person again in mid-October to be on the safe side. School is not in-person there, and since the Development Center follows the schools, it will be until at least January when they are in person again. Going in October will allow me time to get adjusted and for us to discuss responsibilities before things are "back to normal."

This past year has been a long one for a lot of us, and I want to say a profound thank you for so faithfully giving to and praying over this ministry. It's sometimes hard to give in faith of what will come especially during challenging times in life, but that's exactly what we are called to do and it is what you have been doing. Giving towards God's work, whether in your life or someone else's, stores up treasure in heaven. That is a much sweeter reward than any we will know here on this earth. So thank you from the bottom of my heart for letting God use you!

English Conversation Club 💬

This month I began English Conversation Club with GCLA San Miguel! We meet once a week for each group, and each day we talk about a specific topic guided by an article or a video that we look at ahead of time. We've had pretty consistent attendance and it makes me excited to be able to meet everyone in person soon!

If you have any good articles or videos you think would make for good conversation please feel free to forward them to me! 😃


➡️ So What's Left?? ⬅️

God has so faithfully answered our prayers to move my support raising forward, and I am now at 85%!! I am only lacking $416 in recurring support. My fundraising goal is Sept 15. Small or big, every gift counts!!


We are SO close to reaching that 100% mark!!
Who do you know that would be interested in what God is doing in La Libertad??


I am going to start posting more on facebook and Instagram in hopes of getting the word out and getting that last $416. Will you help me by praying and sharing my posts? 


Pray with Me

  • That the Lord will continuing to open doors for me to get to El Salvador!
  • For the last $416 in support by Sept 15
  • For the health and safety of El Salvador as they begin to reopen




I'm so thankful to be in ministry with you, my prayer warriors and partners. May you live this month reveling in the grace and beauty of Jesus Christ!

In Christ,

Alyssa

"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke up on you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."
