 My name is Lee and this is my wife Gabriella and we are the Russi's We've been married since March 18th of the year 2000, but that's 16 years already We have two boys our eldest is Judah youngest is Ezra and The Lord saved us and about eight years ago not just a little bit more and We've been humbly serving here locally in Cornerstone Baptist Church for the past five years and I'm excited to do so. Well, we came to that conclusion In a kind of a practical manner The people that come to mind in scriptures are people like Priscilla and Aquila and Lydia who found themselves in a specific area and perhaps found themselves with the opportunity to serve one in Disciple and Apollos the other one in opening her church or her house to have The brothers and sisters come in and have service there well practically speaking there is a pastor in our church pastor Mark Mudge who has been called to plant the church in Guatemala City and Both my wife and I my wife being from Honduras and me being a Hispanic descent Both of us speak Spanish. We want to serve we Have the means to do so and the and the desire to do so so The really the question is why not, right? So hope because in our church there is no pastor Planting a church in Honduras. There is no pastor planting a church in Bolivia or Argentina Or in a a nice island country, you know There is a path there happens to be a pastor in our church that is planting a church in Guatemala City and Like we said before Because of that opportunity because the Lord works Providentially he is sovereign and was providentially We feel that that is a place that we should go to What's been the most impactful or what's marked me the most about Guatemala City is that there are so many churches and Yet, there are very few churches and what I mean by that is that The prosperity gospel The false gospel of prosperity gospel and many other Schools of thought such as perhaps Getting into heaven by our your own works, even though they may not say it that way But in speaking to people in Guatemala City The majority of the people there even being religious going to evangelical churches The majority of them feel that they're right with the Lord because of their own works because they've been a good person and We know that through the gospel No one No one gets into heaven by their good works It's all by the mighty work of Jesus Christ on the cross and our faith and that and trust in that work and Repentance of our sins And we can be right with the Lord so we want to bring that message to Guatemala City Helping our pastor Establish a biblical church there where He can be and we can be faithful in preaching the word of God To the city of Guatemala the goal really is For me to find work in Guatemala City. So if anyone wants to contribute Monetarily I would want them to do so to our pastor because I Hope to find work down there But they could help with prayer obviously that I'd be able to do so If you want to find out more information on the church plan you could go to missions GUA.org And find out more information by the church plan and how you could donate Both to the Mudge Mudge's family or to our family for desire to do so
