Greg, Pepe & Gislaine's October 2014 Newsletter

Greetings from Costa Mesa: I hope this update finds you well. Please take a moment to check out the pictures and read from Pepe and Gislaine down in Chile, to see and learn what has been going on with them and Fuego Urbano in October.

Here Is Pepe & Gisaline’s October Update (which I translated):

“Grace and peace brothers and sisters; we greet you in the love of the Lord from La Serena, Chile: This month of October was a little different. We had the blessing of traveling to Brazil for a few days to be there with Gislaine’s family. I had not had the opportunity to visit the family in Brazil since the tragedy of losing my brother in-law. It was a time of sharing with them and strengthening the bonds with the family, not to mention that the only family member there who is a Christian is my mother in-law. We were able to visit my father in-law and share with him about the love of God. My wife needed to spend that time with her family because she has spent so many years of her life away from them due to reasons of the ministry; and we were only able to make the trip because a brother was able to raise an offering and give it to us.

Whenever we are in Brazil we receive invitations to preach in various churches and this time was no different. We shared about our work in Chile and about our challenge to keep planting churches in the north of our country, which is a dry and arid place for the gospel.


I was able to visit the sports program that my wife and I started in a favela (slums ran by drug-traffickers) of Ipatinga, Brazil when we lived in Brazil before moving back to Chile in 2009. Thank God we were able to see the results after many years, where many of the kids who were part of that project are walking with Christ today, and participating in the church.


I visited the Rehab Center for chemical dependencies that a church runs and believe that could be an area we could work in with Fuego Urbano in Chile.


We ask for your prayers and covering for us and the families that are being reached in Chile with the gospel of Christ, and we implore you to keep supporting our work as Fuego Urbano. It is a time of new challenges but we keep trusting in God, in the support of your prayers, and in your financial support. If you would like to know more about our activities with Fuego Urbano in Chile, please visit our new Blog:  http://jose-pepe-eyzaguirre-mision.tumblr.com/   or write us at:  jose@fuegourbano.org   or   gis@fuegourbano.org

A big hug in Christ -- Jose, Gislaine, Gabriel, Gean”
