We went to some houses today to pray for some families and to bless them with some groceries even when was kind of rainy today, but that did not stop us to reach others by this wonderful ministry.

Today after we pray for over the families we visited and giving them the bags with groceries, we gave them some bracelets and we explained them the meaning behind it, that is how loved we are by our amazing God that is always watching over us.

Amazing time we had knowing people from the community, praying for them, delivering food and taking some photos to continue praying once we are in our homes.
