Are we conducting experiments in genetics? We hope not. Actually, DNA is the name for a new project in our church to establish small groups or cell groups. DNA in English, ADN in Spanish. The letters however, don't stand for deoxyribonucleic acid. They stand for Love (amor), Discipleship (discipulado) and New Birth (nuevo nacimiento). The aim of these DNA Groups is that they would be a place for people to support each other in love, to grown in following Jesus (discipleship), and to come to know Him if they don't already (new birth).
As we have mentioned in earlier updates, we participated in a training group for cell group leaders. Our training lasted almost 8 months and now thanks to your prayers, we have launched two new cell groups. One of the groups is focused on training new cell group leaders. The goal is to start various groups in November of this year or early next year. We currently have 9 people in this group.
We have also begun another group focusing on growing (creciendo) and discovering (discubrimiento). In this group we are using the Purpose Driven Life as our guide for themes with a focus on growing in following Jesus or in the case of those who aren't Christian, discovering who Jesus is.
We ask for your prayers for us as we lead this group. Our hope is that those involved in the first group would continue with the training over the next 12 weeks and later begin their own groups. Our hope for the second group is that those participating can encourage each other in following Jesus and be a place where others can discover Jesus. Please pray that participants in both groups will remain enthusiastic and be able to attend (there are so many other things, which can interupt these groups).
