After a 14 year gap from the last special missions offering, God blesses the saints in this humble congregation.

The last time the church in Santiago de Chile enjoyed a special offering was more than 14 years ago. Over the past five years God has been healing and restoring convictions in the hearts of every disciple in Santiago. After a time of pruning and recommitting to the Lord we wanted to start giving a special offering to the Lord.

God had put in our hearts a goal of $15,000 dollars. This was very challenging for all of us, especially coming out of a time of losing some members through the pruning process. However we wanted to trust God and give him all the glory. So we prayed and prepared for a year. The disciples were very creative looking for resources by selling breakfasts, doing garage sales, several auctions, bingo games, etc. On September 2nd of this year we all came together for a great worship service to give our special offering. The Lord took all the glory as we collected over $18,000 that day. Since then, more disciples have contributed and we have collected a total of over $19,400.

O our God, we thank you and praise your glorious name! But who am I, and who are my people, that we could give anything to you? Everything we have has come from you, and we give you only what you first gave us !” – 1 Chronicles 29:13
