Emmett and Wanda Pillault's trip to Honduras in 2002

---

In March 2002, Emmett and Wanda Pillault spent almost two weeks ministering in Honduras. Here are reports Wanda e-mailed from the road:

Monday, March 18

Hello from Honduras! We are here! It is so hot!!! Just unpacked and put some short pants on. We will minister tonight at a place down from the Youth for Christ housing. We are in San Pedro Sula, Honduras. Every day is chock-full of busy schedules for ministry. We will send more later!

Tuesday, March 19 (morning)

Benny Hinn was gone already last night. We did not get into the conference since it was over. We are staying at the Youth for Christ house. Rough sleeping but we are blessed. Dog barked all night. We are on our way this morning to a ministers' meeting, and tonight to a church service. We do not know what God has for us during the other part of the day. Everybody please pray! We are where God wants us to be.

Tuesday, March 19 (evening)

We have had an awesome day! This morning, we went to a church that had a pastors' prayer time. It was awesome, because most of the pastors were with Benny Hinn when he was here. We thought God was going to use us to minister to them, but instead we got ministered to by them. Em and I both ended up on the floor being ministered to by the Holy Spirit. We have been drunk all day. We went to the mall about 1:00 today and had lunch, then we sang a couple of songs. Next thing we knew, people were coming around us. We brought all of the cleaning people who were in the food court at the mall to the Lord, and told them to tell 3 people they got saved today. Next thing we knew, we were crowded around by people from every direction - people coming to the Lord and people with infirmities. We were there till almost 5 pm. We had to come home to get equipment for a prayer meeting up in a mountain called Valle Nuevo. The pastor's name is Spirito. We are expecting the move of God to continue as it has all day. Keep us in prayer, because the officials here stopped the clowns from making balloons - because they did not have permits to make balloons - but we kept on praying for people. Children were slain in the Spirit right in the middle of the food court in the mall. Wow! What a move of God.

Wednesday, March 20

We went to a children's hospital and ministered. It was so heartbreaking, seeing all the mothers and fathers there with no hope in their hearts. All we could do is cry with them. We told them about our trust in God, and how Jesus heals. We sang songs and prayed with each and every person in the hospital. It took us a long time, but it was worth it. The coouple of hundred people went down to 12 for this trip. Keep us in prayer.

Thursday, March 21

Today was so busy. We went to a local public school that has street children. Some sleep in the street and some stay in a local shelter. We touched over 300 children at that school. My heart broke. Each one that I hugged, you could feel their little stomachs growling. All you could do was tell them about Jesus and love them. Most of these children accepted the Lord as their personal Lord and Savior. Emmett got to bring them to the Lord.

Then we went to eat at a chicken place. It was really hard for me to share a meal with Em, when those children were so hungry we just left. We ministered in the chicken place, too.

Then we went to a local university, where I was asked to share my heart with a stress class. So I told them about how Jesus has changed my life and I give all of my burdens to Him.

We also sang in the plaza of the university. Plenty of people came up for healing, but I went into the crowds, and asked each person that the Lord directed me to, to come to the Lord. Spoke to several, and most of them accepted the Lord. The others asked for prayer to be better vessels for Jesus to use.

Saturday, March 23

It has been 3 days since we have communicated, and there is so much that has gone on. We were at a public university for a evening service. There was a street kid, who hangs around the university; he was so dirty, his clothes were so ragged, and because he is a child, the clowns (Youth for Christ ministers in a clown ministry) who are with us on this trip did not see him, because they were looking at university-size people. He finally got my attention and asked me to help him get a balloon. I could not get near the clowns for quite some time because they had so many people around them. Finally I got one of the clowns' attention to make a ballon for the little boy (his name was Jesus). The clown made him a horse. He looked at me with a big smile and thanked me, and then said, "All I wanted was a heart."

I felt so helpless as we walked away without having time to make a heart balloon for the child. We had to be at a TV station for an interview at a certain time. When I got back to the house, I told the Mauricio's wife (Mauricio is the Youth for Christ pastor) about our time at the university and the little boy. She said to me, "well, everybody knows this little boy, because of his love for Jesus and his faith." So again I asked one of the clowns to make a balloon for the little boy, and one of the teachers at the school next to the house we are staying in took the balloon to the little boy. He may be a child from the streets, but God takes care of him and his desires. A heart balloon was all he asked for.

We were at a service last night that was an adventure to get to. The bus broke down on the road (we were on a mountain); it was raining, and what a mess with all the equipment. We began to pray, and our interpreter got out of the bus and went outside with the men trying to fix the bus, when quickly a truck driver stopped with two ladies who knew our interpreter. She took all the equipment, and most of the men and all the women, to the church. Praise the Lord - we were not late for the service. The pastor of the church on the mountain is lending us his bus for the rest of the trip. We had a caravan of drivers taking us all home after the church service - it was almost 12:00 before we got home.

I prayed for a lady who had seizures and she was healed. She also had a kidney stone operation, and that was not healing; she had so much pain, and could not work because of the pain. God is so good! She had no more pain, and felt a healing in her body completely from seizures, and she could run and lift her legs really high without any pain. Her pastor said he would get her to give her testimony this morning. Keep us in prayer, because we do not have a church service to go to this morning, because we can't get there - the bus that the pastor from the mountain is lending us will not get to us until this evening.

We have two services we are going to at the tent tonight, with over 6,000 people. The pastor is like Benny Hinn, and has awesome services. A child got healed in her ears who could not hear her whole life. Another got healed from a stroke. She was in a wheelchair before, then walked off the stage. He is the pastor who has a big heart for Honduras. Everything he has is in building an orphanage for street children. He buses them in off the street for them to get at least one meal a day so they won't starve to death. The church building he is building will fit almost 50,000 people. His tent only fits 6,000 inside, but outside of the tent they may have 50,000 waiting and praying to get into the tent. The power of God touched - so many healings, even when they were in their chairs or outside of the tent, people were healed. You could hear them screaming they were healed, and the cheers from people around them. We in the USA have such little faith.

Our days are running into each other. I can't remember from one day to another what went on. If I can get to you as soon as I get in, it is better to give you the rundown. I will try to do better - but we are going more than coming.

We went to a restaurant to eat lunch yesterday, after we took the tour of the huge area of property that has the tent ministry. The pastor like Benny Hinn gave us a personal tour. We felt so honored. He said he was so sad that Benny Hinn, when he was in Honduras, did not take the time to come to his ministry to see him. The security was so tight around him that no one could get near him to even extend an invitation. I would like to help this pastor to get on to Sky Angel satelite TV. If anyone knows or has a international phone number I could give to him while I am here in Honduras, that would so helpful. If anyone has any time to come and help them build their facilities - they desperately need to house children and places to feed them - what a wonderful service you would be doing in the name of Jesus. They need so much. I wish I could have the finances to give them to complete their vision. I am going to bring some videos home from a TV station that has filmed this project for everyone to see. If you are interested in seeing it, please call us or email us when we get home, and we can make arrangements for that, okay?

We are doing great healthwise. I have a little fluid that is building around my feet. That hurt, but I went to a pharmacy and got some fluid pills, and am doing much better. Some of the others have had eye problems and stomach problems. We went back to that food court to eat one of the days, and a girl that accepted Jesus the first time came to me and told me there were two of her friends who were not there the first day who wanted to accept Jesus into their hearts. So I led them in the sinner's prayer.

There were almost 350 street kids at a public school we went to visit. They almost smothered the two clowns who had balloons for them. We had an awesome time in the Lord. The kids kept pulling my hair. They kept touching me. They never saw someone so white before. I laughed the whole time I was at their school. One child asked me if the hair on my head was a wig! Laughing out loud. We almost had a 100% rate of salvation with the children that day, and the team asked Emmett to lead them in the sinner's prayer. We could hardly contain ourselves when we heard that many children asking Jesus to come into their hearts.

Oh, in front of the restuarnt yesterday: When we walked up, a man was standing there, and our interpreter gave him a big hug and said it had been many years since they had seen each other. He asked her, are you still with Jesus? He said, you are with Jesus in the morning, noon, and evening - all the time with Jesus. Then he asked her for prayer. So we all gathered around him, and prayed for his father who has stomach cancer, and his family for other different types of needs.

We are at the right place at the right time - for Jesus. Keep us in prayer. We love you all. It is so hot here.... Thanks, and God richly bless you.

Sunday, March 24

This morning, we are having church here at the Youth for Christ house. We have no transportation to get to the church service in Copan where we were supposed to be. We are praying that communication comes together soon, so we can have transportation for everything else planned today.

Here we sit praising the Lord. We had cereal for breakfast, because no one came to get us breakfast because it is sunday. We were on our own to unfreeze the milk for the cereal...but we are not complaning, because we know there are people here who do not have cereal or milk to eat this morning.

We are really thankful. Sometimes we even get water to work here to have a cold shower. Then sometimes the hot-water machine that is hooked into the showers here even gives us hot water for a minute. We can't drink the water out of the faucets, so we keep bottled water to brush our teeth. There is so much that we take advantage of! Like flushing the toilet everytime we use the bathroom - but here they ask that you only flush the toilet for #2 - and do not put paper ever in the toilet; it won't go down. There is never any water at night here, so you keep a bucket of water to flush if you need to after the water is cut off. You really need to thank God for the water we have in the States, and being able to have hot water any time you need for a shower. Just being able to brush your teeth and wash out your mouth from the sink is a blessing at home. We take advantage of everything at home.

Monday, March 25

God is moving so fast with us. He has shown us that today is a new beginning for us, with new things to face. Please keep us in prayer. We are entering a town called Copan where there are many ancient ruins. We are going into the schools there and ministering in the streets. We will be there for 3 days. We do not know if the hotels will have computers for us to use to communicate. So if you do not hear from us, please just pray. We are leaving Saturday about 2 on our way back home, unless God has different plans. Who knows? We just know WHO holds the future - and we have seen Him at work here for sure.

Last night we were at the tent church again. There is something very big happening there, and we feel such a part of it. The first lady of the church has invited me to be with her in August or September (not sure of the date at this time) to speak to women's ministries about what God is doing here in Honduras. Sooooo...if you would like for her to speak to your women's group, please let me know, and I will see if she has time to come. Thank all of you and God richly bless you!

Wednesday, March 27

Sunday night was an awesome night. We went to a service here under a tent that holds about 5000 sitting down and another 1000 standing up and pressing in. It was some awesome to see that many people under one tent wanting a touch from God. Wow. At the 4:00 service, we sang the song "Send Me There." The people were so touched that God would send us to minister in their country. These people are so poor, they do not have any kind of transportation, not even a mule. That is poor!

The ministry here has about 6 buses that have been donated to them by ministries from the USA. They bus the people in for the services. They start early in the day until the tent is full. There are two services on Sunday evenings and two in the morning. We saw blind eyes opened, deaf ears opened, and people walking out of wheelchairs who had been in them for years. We got to pray for people and see miracles through us: Healings of broken limbs, blood disease, marriages healed, thousands of salvations. We are in just awe that God would use us in this way. Wow. We will never be the same.

This week - Monday, Tuesday, and today - we have been blessed. God showed me in a vision that we are working as diligently as ants, carrying the escence of God. God showed me that he is in front of us, moving all the snares of the devil so we will not be stopped, and angels are all around us to protect us. In the town of Copan where we ministered monday night, there were six people killed by gunshots, and a terrible car wreck with a bunch of people killed in that. We happened to be sitting in a park that was close to the police station, and that is why we knew about the shooting and the car wreck. We went and prayed for the policemen who were going out to see if they could catch the shooter. They received our prayers well.

We had the Youth for Christ crew with us on this trip, because they are out of school for Easter week. We happened to be in the same town at the same time as them, because the Youth for Christ minister we are staying with in San Pedro Sula took them to stay in a camp there in Copan. So we teamed up with them, and they did "The Champion" in Spanish as a skit on the stage in the park. At least a dozen people came to the Lord that I know of, but I am sure that there were many more. At least a couple of demons manifested there in that park...but God rebuked them and we went on ministering.

At one point Em and I went and got a drink and sat down on the side of the plants where there was a kind of brick wall. We sat next to a man, and Em said, "Ouch - what is that I sat on?" Then we realized that Em had sat on the policeman's machine gun! We started talking real fast, trying to say we were sorry for sitting on his gun and explaining to him that we were part of the team mnistering there. The police there would rather shoot and then ask questions. But we had the grace of God, and he only said, "It is a big gun, huh?" Talk about a relief! Anyway, we talked to him about Jesus, then he accepted the Lord as his personal Savior. Better than getting shot! Hahahaha...praise the Lord.

We went to a church service in a town way up in the mountains called Ocotepeque. We had an awesome service. People threw their canes away and began walking without them. People with high blood pressure claimed their healings...people with problems with their wrists...other people with other problems I can't remember.

We walked up to one of the men there, an older man, and we said to him that we believed that he was a great man of God, and that God had given him authority to speak against devils, for him to heal the sick. He just looked at us without even a smile. Then Matthew, one of the men with us, just said "too late," but I said, "Enough!" When he walked away, this great man of God, who was listening to every word we said to him, just said, "Thank you for the compliment. I am the pastor here in this church." Well, then we knew were in communication with the Holy spirit. Amen!

We had to get back to Copan for that night, because we had to get up early in the morning, to take three people back to the airport for them to return back to the U.S. early. The bus ride back was like I dreamed it: The nuts on both front tires of the bus had been loosened, by we don't know who or what, but we can guess....We had to drive very slowly to a town, to find a lug wrench to tighten the lugs. It was pretty scary, when you are about 4000 feet up on a mountain and you;re concerned about having tires roll down or fall off and you go off the side of the mountain. Well, most of you can guess who stayed up and watched the road and talked to our driver (who only spoke Spanish), and who went to sleep the whole ride. Smile! Em slept...I stayed awake. It was exciting. God brought us through one more time.

We got back to the hotel about 3 am and went to sleep 'til 5. We got up, got dressed, ate breakfast and took off again for the airport. Now we are back at the Youth for Christ house in San Pedro Sula. Tonight we are going back to the big tent church to have a meeting with the pastor there - he wants to share his vision with our team. Keep us in prayer. God bless all, and we love you - thank you for your prayers - God is moving.

Wednesday, March 27 (late night)

We got a little nap this afternoon - about 30 minutes - then got up and got dressed and went to the tent church. The Holy Spirit really moved in awesome ways; at least 100 people came to the Lord. A preacher preached from Guatemala. We are praying Emmett's boss gets this info, so if anyone has his e-mail address, please e-mail him to watch the Web site.

It has been an awesome time in the Lord. Our bodies have been in attack this whole week. We are a little better now. Really tired. Not enough time to rest. So much to do. Everybody here wants us to be at their church, from La Ceiba to San Pedro Sula. A very wide area. Not enough of us and not enough time. We just can't touch everywhere. Our prayer is for more harvesters. The harvest is ripe - just not enough of us. It is so sad to see the faces and you can't get to them.

I have been invited to speak at the largest women's conference in South America. There are three other North Americans who have been invited. I am praying that God will supply the way for Em and me to return in June and July if it be God's will. Now, there is so much for me to do here, I don't have time to even think about this. So please pray.

God bless, and thanks for your prayers - please don't stop. Tomorrow and Friday, there may not be much time to write, but I will try.

Thursday, March 28

Keep us in prayer. Today, we are going to the port of Cortez, where we are joining up with a church to minister with there at the port of Cortez. It is going to be a full day. Don't know when we will be coming back. This is a time of our witnessing that we have been waiting for, because everyone is out for vacation time and at the beach.

We had an awesome time of intercession and devotion time today. God is so good to help keep us in one mind and one accord.

God bless all at home. Don't stop praying! Someone please tell Em's boss to e-mail us so we can have his e-mail address, or someone send us his e-mail. Also, someone please give me some information on Veggie Tales in Spanish for the churches to use to minister to their children. Also need some info on the Franklin pocket Bible computers that talk with the disk to change for Spanish interpretation and English interpretation, for the schools to use here to help people learn English - how they can order them and how much they cost. Please don't forget about Sky Angel Web site info.

Thanks for giving us prayers and help in these matters.

Time to go, and I've got to comb my hair. Love you all.

Friday, March 29

Yesterday, we got up early to read God's word, and Em and I were all alone on the porch praying. God is so good. It is fresh, cool, the birds are singing. One by one we come out to pray to have intercession for God's work today. We believe God has special plans for this holy weekend. We are prepared, we believe, for what God has in store. Outreach at the port of Cortez, on the beach. The church there is going to pay for our lunch and dinner.

This will be a good day. It is 10 'til 8, and we are almost all here for intercession prayer. We are on our last bit of money, so God knows our hearts, and everything we need we trust in Him.

We had an awesome time in the Lord. We went to a Episcopal church. The pastor was so precious. He let Common Ground Ministries take the whole service. We were in such awe again to see God move. Mostly everyone there got touched. Someone in our group told me the people were Pentecostal Mennonites. I don't think it really matters what church they are from or in; if you are willing for the Holy Spirit to manifest in your life, He will.

God showed me a pregnant lady to pray for, and to tell her she needs to speak - to the baby every day while still in the womb, and for the rest of the life of this child - the word of God, and watch him grow into a mighty man of God.

Fuzzy came to me and asked me to pray for a lady, and just hug her, he said. I did that; the lady broke down crying, and received the Holy Spirit. After service, the lady came to me and thanked me for coming to her. She said she'd asked God to come closer to her and that when I hugged her she felt God's presence. She did rest in the Spirit on the floor for a long time.

Another lady - the pastor's wife - was praying for her. She was receiving anything the lady was saying. I found mauricio to interpret for me. The lady was holding back something; in order to enter in with the Holy Spirit, she has to release what is hidden inside her. The pastors wife walked away. That is when she told Mauricio that she had been in the church for four years and had not received Jesus in her heart. Mauricio led her in the sinner's prayer. She then said, "I am free," and thanked us.

Em was praying for a man who lost his breath. You could see the spirit of the old man die and the new man come to life. The man's name was Jesus. Wow! Good, huh?

I laid hands on every child I could get my hands on, and asked God to bless each child.

Mauricio took us to the Caribbean Sea to swim. It was beautiful. This was a first for Em and me. The banana trees, coconut trees, all kinds of flowers were everywhere. The mountains surround the whole sea coast where we were. It was so beautiful. Mauricio got us to sit and watch the sunset in the Caribbean Sea.

We need prayer, because we are so tired for going so much with no sleep.

Today our cook did not show up early, because it is Good Friday, so I made egg sandwiches for all of the guys. Praise the Lord, our cook just showed up; it is 10:30 in the morning. We have to leave before noon for our next place to minister.

Did anyone find me the information on a web site for Sky Angel, for our friends here in Honduras to communicate with them about having a time on Sky Angel? Please let us know ASAP. We are leaving tomorrow about noon to be at the airport, so we need it like today. Thanks.

We are back tonight at Iglesia Villanueva with pastor Jacobo Coello. That is where the children all fell out in the Spirit, from 18 months to full teens. it was awesome to see.

Don't stop praying. God bless you all.

Saturday, March 30

We are packing right now to go to the airport to come home. Keep us in prayer. My back is really hurting. I am being attacked physically. The guys prayed for me, and I am feeling better - thank you, Jesus! - but am walking slow.

Yesterday was another awesome day. God is so cool. We took a bus ride far away to a town where several churches come together - I forget the name. We ministered in song. The clowns went crazy trying to make balloons for over 600 children. It was a very spititual time in the Lord. The Lord showed Em and me so much to tell people that we didn't know - that only God would know. It was really great when the people we were talking to and praying for would say we were right on track. After several hours at the camp meeting - with, I think, maybe about 5000 people - we tried to pray for everyone who came up for prayer.

We left to come back to San Pedro Sula, and Mauricio Erazo, our Youth for Christ pastor, and one of our interpreters asked if we would not mind going to a small village and ministering to the small church there. We drove on a cow trail for, it seemed, 30 minutes before we got to a place where there was the only electricity anywhere around. People were sitting in chairs in the cow path. We met the pastor and his wife - very humble people. The homes there do not have electricity. No water except in the mornings.

God moved in more anointing through us than at the camp meeting. Emmett and I were praying for a couple who are called to be ministers. We prayed for a long time; we didn't know if they understood us or not. Then all of a sudden, the man began speaking to us in English. He said that he knows we were speaking from the Holy Spirit because it was exactly what God has been speaking to them. Em touched the man on the top of the head, and said, "Why did you make us struggle so hard to speak to you?" and they both went out in the Spirit - into cow pies on the cow trail! Well, you know Em - he had to be slain in the Spirit to land on the ground!

We're going to the airport at 11, to fly out for 2. We will be in New Orleans about 8. Keep us in prayer. We love all of you.

I am being attacked in my back, so please pray. God bless ya!

Sunday, March 31

Praise the Lord - we are home. Hot baths any time of the day or night. God is so good to get us home safe.

We had some problems leaving Honduras, because my back tried to be out most of the time in the morning when I was packing. The guys prayed for me. It was fine for a short time, then it would happen again. I was in so much pain for the trip. Walking the Miami airport was a real test. I prayed for anybody who I could think of, and prayed for them with their back pains to leave them, plus anybody else who I didn't know, in Jesus' Name, for them to have no more pain in their backs. At one point of time, before boarding the plane, we felt maybe God wanted us to stay a couple of more days in Honduras.

Well, we flew off to Miami. We had a nice quiet flight from Honduras; we slept all the way. It was so hectic getting to our next flight to New Orleans, going to Customs. They even took Em's shoes off of him and took them away. We sat down, and waited and waited and waited, it seemed for 30 minutes. Then I finally said, "We have a flight for New Orleans at 6:45 [it was 6:45 at that time]. If we miss the flight, are you going to give us a voucher for a place to stay, and for food, until tomorrow?" The man said, "We will have your shoes back right away." They gave us the shoes, and we ran to the next flight. We got into the airplane in record time, and flew out.

Em and I have a deal that if we are sitting near a man, he sits next to the man, or if it is a woman, I sit by her. So this time it was a woman. She looked different somehow in the Spirit than what I saw on the outside. She looked Hindu. When I spoke to her, I found out she was from Trinidad - full of religious things. Anyway, we spoke, and between something I said and Em reading his Bible, she began to tell me her life story. She now lives in the United States, in Gonzales, Louisiana. She got saved about 27 years ago. Her German husband was a Christian; he never argued with her about her Muslim religion. One day, when he got cancer and was dying, he asked her if she would come to know his God and receive Jesus in her heart. She said she loved him so much that she could not tell him no. She is now 68 years old and just has a glow when she speaks about Jesus. We had a divine appointment to be with Ruphena Suarez on our flight back to New Orleans. It was a short time after she received the Lord that her grandson was playing with a radio when the electrical cord caught on fire. She pushed her grandson away from the cord, and they tried to unplug it, when the electricity shocked both of her hands, and now they are both crippled. They do not straighten up. She does have some grip in them, but she cannot play a piano or type a letter on a computer. Writing with a pencil is a big ordeal for her. Em pulled his oil and began to pray. She was filled with the Holy Spirit and began to cry. We sang songs all the way to New Orleans, and prayed in the Spirit, anointing her hands for her healing to be done in the name of Jesus. She cried and said that God knew her heart, that she needed to talk about the Lord with someone, about some questions she was asking that no one would answer in her church.

Anyway, we got off the airplane in New Orleans to meet our friend Terry Lewis, who picked us up at the airport. Em realized that he lost the rest of our cash that we were traveling with - for dinner, and gas in the car, stuff like that. We went to several places trying to get someone to go and look in the airplane to see if the money was in the seat. Finally, the last place we went, Em asked nicely, and explained that God does not let the devil steal from us - that the money had to be on the plane. Finally someone - must have been a Christian - understood what he was saying. They sent someone to look on the plane. On the seat they found Em's money. Just like he said, it was folded together. The other person, who heard Em before the last person, gave out a big yell, and was in such surprise to see that. God witnessed to that lady through that incident. All our money was there.

We were so tired when we got up for church. I got dressed and got in the car early. It was raining - really cats-and-dogs raining. We got to church, and our pastor gave us about a minute to give a touch of what happened on our trip. I was trying to get 13 days into one minute - all the miracles and salvations God had done - when all of a sudden I fell over on one of the monitors. I fell face first, and pulled my right leg and strained the right side of my whole body. So I am moving very slow.

Praise the Lord in all things. Em has jury duty tomorrow, so he won't get to rest any before he has to go back to work. But God has it under control.


Postscript

In early May, Wanda received this e-mail, from the wife of the pastor at the Youth for Christ compound where Emmett and Wanda stayed.

I read the Web. The pastor's name at La Cosecha Church is Misael Argeñal. You mentioned him as the one that reminds you of Benny Hinn several times, maybe because you did not know his name.

Sorry for not having everything so in abundance in Honduras, we will make sure next time will be better.

I read the Web and it does not sound too nice to go to Honduras. I know we need to learn from you to have everything well prepared and have in abundance. But some day we will get there.

It was Christopher Columbus who came to witness in 1492, and when did the Pilgrims arrive in your country? (Editor's note: 1620.) They had nothing, but remember, they had the Gospel before we did. So they really were advised by God how to live a better life following His written instructions. And the Indians who came to Latin America even before that were idolaters, just like your Indians. But immediately they did many things obedient to God. The only thing is that they stayed with pagan celebrations and did not celebrate the Leviticus Feasts. But it was God's purpose. Now many are comming to this understanding and it is beautiful to learn how everything ties together; but we have lots of loose ends still.

May God coninue blessing you, In Jesus' love, Ana Cecilia de Erazo
