FROM DRUGS TO CHRIST !!

Hi my friends, I hope you have time to read this, it is life changing.

In the past two months, these three men have graduated with honors from "God In Action Ministry." Francisco, Alren and Diego.

On September 1st, Alren graduated after 6 months. He is 46 years old and has been an alcoholic since he was 14 years old. His drink of choice was filtered rubbing alcohol with orange juice, He suffered a heart attack when he was 32 had open heart surgery and only God knows why he is still alive, as his health is terrible. When he first arrived he was so drunk, he didn’t know where he was at for two days. He had the shakes so bad he couldn’t hold a spoon. We prayed over him and in four days he was eating and drinking coffee with very little shaking. He was into devil worship of sorts, I found this out after he had painted his new rubber boots (for work) with red stripes and horns… I took a deep breath and explained about Christ to him and choices he’s going to have make here. After cleaning his boots he started asking more questions, and as the Holy Spirit did His work on him, and within a month he was praying with us and before long he started having a little faith which grew like a ivory vine on a wall. After three months he swore of liquor and smoking cigarettes. (I had had to reprimand him two times for smoking in the past). He had two heart attacks during his stay here and many trips to the emergency for near misses. That part was a little difficult. But he made it. He’s now living with his parents and attending AA meetings with the man who brought him here and is solid in his new faith and walk with Christ.... Amen.













On Sunday Oct 5th Francisco (Cisco) graduated after 6 months of recovery at “God in Action Ministry”. When he first arrived he was addicted to crack cocaine and loved telling dirty jokes and street experiences of the past. With in a month he had stopped, (after many rebukes by me) and started reading the Bible feverishly. After a Bible Study one night he sincerely accepted Christ as his Savior. I started letting him teach short devotionals in the afternoon and with the help of a American Pastor missionary, we started teaching him how to teach, and within three months he was teaching full Bible Studies at night, (yes, he was monitored at first). Cisco is also a great car mechanic and has helped keep me on the road. He’s a lot like me in that he learns by doing. With just a little direction he learned how to build block walls and lay cement floors. (I can’t because of my back) But most importantly, he has resumed his relationship with his wife and two daughters and hopefully one day in the future they will be a family again. (He had really hurt them in the past with his addictions and anger). He will be living at the center tell Dec. so he can find a job and get and start a regular life and continue working on is relationship with is family. He is teaching 4 to 5 bible studies a week and loving it.
God is Awesome//Amen











This is Diego,he graduated Oct 12th, he's 23 years old and was addicted to crack cocaine when he came to the center over 6 months ago. His relationship with is family was in the toilet as his dad had kicked him out of the house as he was stealing to support his addiction. His first 3 months here were full of turmoil as he had/has a problem with his pride and he's a big boy. After just one month he wanted to quit, we talked and prayed for a hour or so and he agreed to give me at least three months, then one night after a Bible study he came up to my office and rededicate his life to Jesus. Shortly after that I permitted him to start going to church with his family on Sundays, which led to renewed relationship with his father and his families trust him...He is now home working to help support his family with a new heart for Jesus and I believe he will never use drugs again through his believe in the power of the holy Spirit.











These three men have been saved through the love of Jesus Christ and the mercy of God in Action, here in Costa Rica from a life of drugs and crime and have started a new relationship with God and their families Most of these men started using drugs when they were children
Please pray with me for all of God's children who have been doped in to addictions through the lies of Satan and lure of drugs, sex and money, for they are the cause of the destruction of our families values which in turn helps destroy our children's future. No matter where you live please pray for all men and women who have addictions and the families who are effected by there addictions. Their is hope for all through Christ.

Your brother in Christ serving in Costa Rica with "God in Action Ministry"

By faith we walk, by faith we talk and by faith we receive God's mercy and grace.
