Recently, a friend of ours, Andrew Burnett from Oregon, spent several days here in Medellin getting acquainted with our town and ministry with Open Arms Foundation. Check out his video to see some sites and sounds of the city.
About a year ago Medellin was visited by Anthony Bourdain and his production crew for an episode of No Reservations which aired on The Travel Channel. Here is one of 5 parts of the Colombia episode which can be found on Youtube.com.
Of course, there is a different side to Medellin, one that is not very attractive. You won't see this side on the Travel Channel, but we see it everyday. Maybe some time soon we will show the darker side. Each day Open Arms Foundation reaches out to little boys and girls who live on our streets. Drugs, prostitution, hunger, loneliness, fear, poverty, desporation. These too are also the sites and sounds of our beautiful city.
Please pray for Enoc and I, that God would continue to give us His Grace as we face each new day.

CHRIST'S CHURCH IS CHANGING A GENERATION
Our Chuch is growing, we had two babies dedicated this month.
We are going into the neighborhoods were no one wants to go and reaching those that Jesus came for: the children, the poor, the outcast.
Every week many children come to Christ by the teaching of God's Word and Bible Studies.
These are some children that will will someday become leaders and are helping us to change their own neighborhood
