Brother Alvear and I have always worked very close in the ministry. We are workers together with Him that called. I was a missionary when we met and had churches and he was a pastor of several churches in his brother´s work.

We have 2 national lady missionaries that work with us up here both their husbands are pastors. We won them from trinity churches. Both sisters are very sweet and they were in the service today and Brother Alvear confirmed their call.
As a missionary I guess I have done it all...Married, buried, delivered babies, baptized, conducted services and whatever was needed at the moment!
Thanks for answering. I was just curious.

Like I said earlier, you are an awesome lady and I pray for anointing and strength for you and yours.

I personally believe different from most...I believe that Acts 8 teaches us that men and women went everywhere preaching the gospel but at the same time I respect the American Church setup but do not believe it is the early church setup. But that is just me...

I think that's a good way to look at it. I don't want to be a pastor, but I feel I have a calling on my life to be fulfilled and I must answer it. I believe we all have a calling to fulfill and to some it means pulpit ministry to others it is a ministry to serve.

I am starting a program with the youth called Sharing Jesus. I am hoping we will be able to share Him with lots of people. Am trying to get new (youth ) converts to help me...and really it will also help them.

Can you elaborate on what this is?

We are in the beginning stages of trying to re-vamp our youth group to get them more involved in soul winning. They are wanting and asking how to do bible studies and such, just tonight they were asking if I could sit down and teach them what to do and how to do it.
