A Venezuela Challenge

The Most Dangerous Place

This is the building the Petare congregation is wanting to buy.  Lower left is DS Jimmy De Gouveia.



The people in the picture in front of the gate are left to right:   The Evangelism Coordinator, the lady who owns the house, and the pastoral couple. 


     The largest and most dangerous neighborhood in Caracas Venezuela, if not in the world, has a Nazarene Church presence that needs our help. 

      District superintendent Rev. Jimmy De Gouveia from the Primero District reports that the congregation has been meeting in the home of one of the ladies of the church but since they have grown to almost 100 people, and continue to grow, they no longer have enough room.

      They found a property with a 3 story building and their plan is to use one floor for the pastor's home and the other floors as Sunday School rooms and the sanctuary.

     This church is the light in this dark neighborhood of Petare where so many are looking for Hope.
