One of the uses of Casa Cristana El Alfarero (the ministry house) is to host visiting pastors who are in Galeana from remote areas. We were recently honored to welcome Pastor Santiago, Edalia (his wife), Pastor Seledonio and a friend of theirs. Some of you may recall  we wrote on  July 10th about visiting Pastor Santiago and Edalia in Refugio, a very remote mountain village two and a half hours away from Galeana. It was a joy to see them again. They left the village about 5 AM as Edalia had to see a medical doctor.

Pastor Seledonio used his truck to drive Santiago and Edalia to Galeana. He is a new friend of our ministry and during the visit we learned he lives close to Refurgio and is a pastor for three mountain villages. We showed them all around the ministry house and told them how we were using it.

Pastor Seledonio mentioned he had many children in his churches. We gave him a supply of the children’s teaching materials that had been donated to us. We also gave him some Bibles and Gospel of John booklets. He was very grateful.

We told them they are welcome to stay the night at Casa Cristana El Alfarero if they are in Galeana for a couple of days. “We have had to stay in Galeana overnight before and did not have a place to stay. Thank you for inviting us,” said Santiago. About our ministry they all said “Gloria a Dios (glory to God)” as they got in the truck to return home.

Edalia enjoyed a cup of coffee at the ministry house.
