Excitement.






God is Amazing!
That's a good place to
start.

This past month has been awesome. I started training a group of teens at a local Hispanic church in both drama and dance. Over the past couple weeks I've seen how much more open they are with me and how much fun we have during our 2-3hr practices. (yeah that does say two to three hours!! lol I make sure they work hard and sleep well that night ha ha) I feel so joyful because I am doing what I love to do and ministering to these teens at the same time. I love telling them what God is doing in my life and seeing and hearing what God is doing in theirs. It is such a blessing. They each wrote their testimonies for me and as I read over them my heart broke, they have been through so much and even admitted their struggles and how hungry they still are for God.

Since then we have taken the teens on an evangelism outreach. I think its safe to say that none of them had ever witnessed to someone before and five of them lead someone to Christ!! They were all so excited after and couldn't wait until the next time! How awesome is that? To witness their faith growing and seeing them excited for the Lord in just a few weeks.

Next week the youth leaders have invited me to a big event at their church and have asked me to perform with the youth to kick off the weekend. I am ecstatic!!

God is opening doors and is allowing me to use dance, drama and my testimony for His Glory!!

Amen!!

Time.. where have you gone?

This past month and a half have been really insane. And then a thought crossed my mind.. When was the last time I updated my blog? If I couldn't remember that must mean it has been way too long. Now I don't believe that updating my blog is life or death, really its only to keep others updated with whats going on with our ministry here in Boston. (I'll try my best to be better at this)

Update in a nutshell!! Here we go!

  • We are able to stay here in Boston! Some of you may have gotten my newsletter (if not and you would liek to please email me at hrodriguez112@hotmail.com) and read how Jesus rescued us out of a big mess in March and has enabled us to continue our journey here in YWAM!!

  • Encounter New England was a great blessing. We were able to perform in my hometown of Manchester NH so members of my family were able to get a glimpse into what I do here! =]

  • Encounter has officially gone on Tour as of April 8th. Javian & I were not able to go, for different reasons but are now able to help with the Schools of Evangelism that are happening.

  • Which brings me to my next update! I am now teaching one of the schools the drama "Doors" which is a evangelistic street drama. All by myself.. ALL ten parts! lol its quite a job but has been extremely fun! Cant wait for them to use it on the outreach next weekend.

  • Joshua Generation is getting alot closer. I've been working on alot of new choreography for the summer! =]

Thanks for reading the update! God Bless!
