My name is Axel Vladimir Gallegos Maldonado. It is a pleasure to share what God has been doing in my life as I am in the second year of Bible School. I am 21 years old, and I arrived at the Roca Blanca Mission Base at the age of 16 in 2018 to study high school, and later study the Bible School.

This year has been a season of dependence on God in specific areas of my life, such as: character, emotions, habits, finances, and spiritual growth. In me is the decision to keep moving forward or stay stuck in what God has done in my life.

In the verse of Jeremiah 1:6-7 when God says to Jeremiah, “Do not say: I am a child”, God has spoken a lot to my heart. God no longer sees me as a child, but he has a holy assignment for my life and awaits my response. The second year of Bible School is to put aside our position as a child and walk more in maturity and is focused more intentionally on forming leadership in each disciple.

I have seen growth in my leadership. I oversee a gardening area at the Base and under my direction are three students. It is there where I see my progress, putting my leadership classes into practice and I can see what I should improve on, and what I should correct.

On mission weekends, I find myself leading a church youth group, and building a new worship team. Since there is no leadership body in the church, I have had the privilege of serving in every area. I can say that leadership is service, nothing more and nothing less than SERVICE.

I am serving in the Fountain of Grace ministry, a ministry on the Mission Base where every Tuesday people come to receive inner healing, physical healing, restoration, deliverance, and miracles. I have made a commitment to sanctify my life and leave things that do not contribute anything to me, and instead I have sought God more in prayer and fasting. At Fountain of Grace, I serve in the area of deliverance and inner healing and that increases my faith and my desire to seek more of God. I am a disciple hungry to do the will of God, so I do not separate myself from the intimate place.

I can look back and see the changes that God is making in my life, and it motivates me to continue in the fight, but it is something that without the beautiful help of the Holy Spirit I could not do. I would be nothing without him because that was my condition before coming to Jesus. But he brought me into abundant life!

We still have disciples like Axel who don’t have sponsors. It costs Roca Blanca $250 dollars a month to train each disciple.  Because of the poverty in southern Mexico, we only charge $150 dollars and look for generous people like yourself to make up the difference. Would you prayerfully consider becoming a Discipleship Partner at $50 or $100 dollars a month?
