Killins, Sam & Alejandra

By the grace of God Alejandra and Sam have seen that all 5 churches they have been involved in starting continue to gather every week to remember and worship our Savior and learn from God's Word. The first and fourth of these churches are part of a denomination that Sam grew up in, and there are many great Christians who oversee them. 

Refuge Church in Cucuta has a lot of members who are Venezuelan immigrants that struggle significantly to get by in their everyday lives. Also, there are not as many leaders in this congregation with very much experience - but it's awesome that this group continues to gather together and grow, especially with a fair amount of street vendors and street musicians.

Two churches sprung to life in the city of Duitama these past few years, and praise God for how much they flourished! May Christ and his Word always be at the forefront of these assemblies, and may its members never give up reaching out to those around them with the love of Jesus.  

Alejandra and Sam just had their first child Jackson Phileo Killins, and even while in the hospital - they were able to befriend a few other parents and invite them to the church they are working with in Bogota. 

Venezuela's doors are wide open for the gospel right now, and as Colombian citizens, Sam and Alejandra hope to move back into this country to share the gospel with anyone that God may put in their path. 

It is wonderful to know that God's love knows no bounds.
