As our discipleship follow-up program continues to grow and expand in the village of La Reina, yet one more aspect has been added to the program...MUSIC LESSONS! For the past few months, we have been bringing our own equipment and musicians for the praise and worship portion of the services we hold on Thursday and Sunday afternoons. Although it works, it has become quite the task to coordinate the transportation of a keyboard, speaker, guitars, microphones, drums, up to 9 individuals, etc. In addition, many young people in La Reina have expressed the desire to learn how to play some type of muscial instrument. Therefore, the dream was formed within Dan Smith's heart to begin a musical group within the village so that they can participate more fully in their own services.
This past Thursday, September 29, marked the first day of these music lessons. Darwin, Hermano Jesus' son-in-law, leads worship at their church and also works as a music teacher. He brought his keyboard and willingly began to teach the first two eager students some basic music theory. Raul and Jorge, the two young men shown in the picture, seemed to pick up on the material quite quickly! Please continue to pray for these two brothers, as well as the other students, who will soon come to learn how to not only play a variety of musical instruments but how to glorify our Lord and Savior with their new-found talents!
