Iniciating the Project by Luis Diego

In this community, there is a property that was used for drug dealing and prostitution. The owner lost the property due to bankrupcy, and the bank took over the rights and sold the property to the church Amistad International. The church leader, William Zapata, began to invest in envisioning the potential use for this property. Others who came together with him, began to clean up the property, construct the protective fence around the property. The vision is to provide a safe place to work in social development and outreach with the local families and their neighbors. The property will house a multi-purpose building that can offer ministries and churches a place to come together to offer different outlets and activities directed towards multiple age bracets such as computer lessons, sowing workshop, youth activities, and more.

This year, we were able to clean up the property and construct a small building to facilitate storage and adecuate ministry area with the children this year.

Every Saturday morning we worked with the children of the local families, playing games and teaching Bible Studies with emphasis in Christian values such as obedience to God and His Word. During 2009, we are projecting our efforts to invite other Christian organizations and minsitries to unite with us in the Lord´s work in 2010.
