We had our Grand Opening services today. We had a good response to the Healing Crusade and today we expected no less. This morning, we started service and had one visitor. We were excited for that one person but wanted to see more. We called the folks that had prayed during the healing crusade and were hoping for a better response for the evening service.When we arrived for the evening service, I began to pray and my two kids immediately took to the streets passing out flyers in the corner, without me having to say anything to them, they started inviting people out for service. When we started service, it was Angie and I and my two kids. It was a little discouraging because there is church that opened up RIGHT IN FRONT of our church. It is a branch of the local Methodist Church. About 25 people gather together along with music and all, and they kept wandering at our entrance waiting for us to get started looking inside our building and wondering why I was leading song service with just my wife and kids. What appeared to be a service where my wife and kids were going to be the only ones there, changed when two visitors walked in. Two ladies walked into the service and towards the end of the service one of the men that had prayed the day before walked in and also rededicated his life to Jesus. After service we had a small fellowship at the church which lead to us going to a pizza place right around the corner from the church. This man that got saved YESTERDAY, Francisco is his name, and he was so touched that he began to witness to another man that came by to ask for money to the extent that this man began to cry and I led him in a sinners prayer. This man could not believe that Francisco was only saved for 1 ½ days. As I heard him witness I was SO AMAZED at what I was hearing. GOD DID A MIRACLE IN THIS MAN! No knowledge of the bible, not even one scripture but as Francisco told him what God was doing in his life from Yesterday until today he spoke with such dominion and passion that this man could not contain himself as he began to cry. By the time we went home, Francisco was so excited that he witnessed to another man as we went home and told me he could not STOP! He feels like a NEW MAN! Please pray for us and for Francisco, it is conversions like this that makes pioneering such a PRIVILEGE.
God Bless,
Pastor Robert Correa

A Letter from the Pastor
Greetings,
Tucson Conference brought to me a new perspective this year, as I prayed and sought God for direction and wisdom for our church. He brought to my attention world evangelism.
World evangelism has been a staple in our fellowship and has been one of our solid foundations over the years.
As a fellowship, we continue and strive to send laborers into the harvest field, which carries such tremendous privilege as lives all around the globe are brought to salvation.
Thinking of all the years in the mother church, stirred to give to the nations, God began to stir in me a vision to see the work of God become a global focus. Through the preaching, I felt compelled to begin to draw our focus as a church into world evangelism. He brought to my attention that with privilege, comes responsibility.
As I have prayed for direction in this new insight, I have felt compelled to assist the in its focus of world evangelism. As of today, has been sponsoring and for a number of years. I believe that as we grow in the Lord, it is also our responsibility to carry that privilege, and become part of a greater calling.
I am pleased to say that in returning and implementing the vision in our church, I am excited to see the church body responding and capturing the vision.
I would encourage all of us to take part in this great endeavor. While it carries in it a tremendous promise, it also bears forth great need. Let us all strive to see this world won for Christ Jesus.
Yours Faithfully,
Pastor Eric Quiles
