Dear Friends,
On July 8th we celebrated the graduation of our 21st class of the Victory Training Center at the Roca Blanca Mission Base. Founder, Duane Kershner spoke on Isaiah 50:4-5,
“The Sovereign Lord has given me a well instructed tongue, to know the word that sustains the weary. He wakens my ear to listen like one being instructed. The Sovereign Lord has opened my ears; I have not been rebellious, I have not turned away.”
Brother Duane encouraged the graduates to allow the Lord to waken them each day to hear the word of the Lord and be directed by Him. He also prayed for those who were graduating to receive a grace to hear the word of the Lord in their lives every day and obey.
There were 48 students graduating from the first year of Bible School, 11 from second year and 6 from the third year of Missions. There were 12 students that graduated from second year Music School and 4 that graduated from third year.
On July 9th we celebrated the graduation of the Roca Blanca Multi-Grade School. There were four students that graduated from preschool. All 39 students from preschool through secondary participated in powerful presentations of English verses and songs, worship
music, fantastic folkloric and modern dances. God is raising up the next generation! There are more students that want to study next year, as the conflict with the Oaxacan teachers continues to interrupt public school attendance.
With the Spanish School, High School, Bible School, Music School and Multi-Grade School Roca Blanca trained a total of 173 children, youth and adults. Your support is of vital importance to us. The Spanish School is the only self-supported ministry at the Base. All the other schools are supported by churches and individual like yourself. $100 dollars a month fully supports a student, however we accept any amount to become a student supporter. If you would like to become a student supporter, just send your monthly donation to: Victory Latin American Outreach, P.O. Box 1945, Hutchinson, Kansas 67504. We will pair you with a student from one of the schools and you will receive their picture and quarterly reports from your student so you can hear personally what God is doing in their life.
We thank you so much for partnering with us in making disciples of all nations and raising up a generation that is participating in the harvest of souls for the Kingdom of God !
