​Our Final Frontiers church planter, Fidel started a church here several years ago which is a days walk or more from his house, midway up the mountain. Zuzular, at over a mile high, has only one bus every two weeks that passes through on a Friday and returns on the following Monday. So every-other Friday he and his wife would ride up and stay for a few days in a “prophet’s chamber” provided by one of the church members. It was very much like when Paul entered Philippi and went down to the river where the women washed, there he met Lydia who invited the missionaries to stay in her home. This lady too is a businesswoman and is the president of the local coffee grower’s association. Every family there grows coffee, and it is absolutely delicious.
 
The church there has no name, but I called it the Coffee Baptist Church. Each time I venture there, they know that before the service can start, they have to serve us coffee that they grew, picked, roasted and brewed. It is heaven on earth!
 
About this time last year, with the funding of Pastor Steve Ware of Tabernacle Baptist in Orlando Florida, we start a “Sunday Lunch” feeding program there, and there are up to 200 children that attend each service, hear Bible stories and have a great meal. You can see some of the kids in the two pictures below. When we first evangelized there, we met outside, and many of the children sat along a pole on the ground, just a few feet away from a steep 200+ foot drop. Some sat on the branches, which I call, the balcony. When it rains they move into a makeshift carport and look through the handing wet clothes to hear the preaching.
 
Last August some of our partners provided funds for some 4-wheelers so we gave one to Fidel, now he and his wife can go back and forth every day if needed and what a difference it has made in the spiritual life and growth of this church. Then I returned in February and learned that land was now available for us to build a church and feeding center on. It was the same land I had secretly prayed for over the past two years that was not for sale, now the owner is willing to sell it to us. It is a beautiful lot overlooking the valley, over 5,500 feet below and since it is next door to where we now operate, it will be convenient for the people of the village to attend. (Also, for those attending from the distant village of Buenos Dias [“Good Morning”] who walk from several miles away.)
 
Now for those of you who may want to help, here’s what we need:
 
$8,000 for the lot and $24,000 to construct the facility for a total of $32,000. That’s not a down payment -- it’s the complete cost. (Frankly, the only reason it is that much is the inflated price on delivering the building materials due to the fact that it is so high in the mountains.) And if the funds arrive by mid-June, I can personally oversee the construction while I am there and provide you with lots of photos. So, consider helping this struggling congregation and designate your gift for the “Coffee Church Construction”.
