CMI Minister, Rev. Harold A. Gutierrez, led a small team that traveled to London, England this summer for the purpose of working alongside Pr. Gilbert Asare and his church, Crown of Glory, in evangelization and church edification.
The 11-day trip proved to be very fruitful and fulfilling.
“The spiritual atmosphere of the city reflects the nickname “The Big Smoke” that is popularly given to it,” Rev. Gutierrez commented.
“The spiritual fire is definitely with the ethnic churches, especially African congregations. The fire that dimly beacons in this dark place is coming from the outside (Ezek 37:9). Despite the little they have, in these smaller, passionate congregations lies the key to unleashing a revival of tremendous magnitude in the city.”

Highlights of the trip:
- Team ministry at “Crown of Glory” Church located in Edmonton, Northern London, which included a 3-night revival series called, “Choose Jesus, Gain Life”.
- Team taught Sunday School and lead Bible studies
- Team was involved with one-on-one street evangelism |

From March 4th to the 7th we had a very important activity in Santa Fe, Argentina, organized by CMI. A group of 15 brethren from Uruguay traveled to the activity. In that group, the evangelist, Liber Murieda, accompanied us. We need to emphasize that this activity was organized together with Pr. Jose Faeinza, director of CMI in Argentina. Ten churches from different denominations joined us as we had various important activities.
One of those activities was a 3-night evangelistic revival event. What God did was amazing! The venue was full to capacity and we had the need to place a big screen on the street in order for the approximate 300 people that stayed outside to be able to see the meetings. The very last night there was an attendance of 800 people. The word of God was preached and God did extraordinary miracles. Evangelist Liber Murieda was the speaker for those three nights.
Another very important activity was the meeting for pastors and leaders. There were approximately 100 pastors and leaders of various denominations. In that meeting, we spoke about CMI and I had the privilege of speaking the Word of God. The Lord manifested Himself with power and we had a very blessed time. Pastors from cities near Santa Fe were in the meeting and they showed interest in CMI. As a result of this activity, we are preparing a breakfast for the month of April in the city of Rosario.
On Sunday, we visited different churches preaching the Word of God. The Lord glorified Himself in each and every place.
Most expenses were covered through the effort of the pastors and churches in Santa Fe. Pr. Faienza and the other pastors are very grateful with the events. God is God.
My dear brethren, I am very happy to report on what has happened in Santa Fe and how God is moving and growing His kingdom through CMI there and the surrounding region.

| HAITI RELIEF CONTINUES |

Rev. Boykin was in Dominican Republic on January 19th to meet, structure and strategize the way relief help will work through CMI and its partners.
CMI is working closely with the National Social Service Evangelical Council as well as The National Evangelical University, both in the D.R. The concept of “Restoration Camps” is taking shape.
Dr. Martha Butler, Director of Genesis Project, who is also in charge of the Jimani Unit 3 makeshift hospital in the D.R., oversees a camp of over 300 children affected by the earthquake. She is helping to coordinate and facilitate help in order to bring the prototype Restoration Camp into fruition.
We know that aid will be for an extended time and CMI, along with its network of ministries, organizations and individuals, is forging ahead to make help become tangible to the many in need as quickly as possible. |

| HAITI RELIEF |

In conjunction with our contacts and network of ministers in Dominican Republic and Haiti, as well as in partnership with Church of All Nations, CMI is coordinating plans to help with sustained relief for people in Haiti. Plans are underway for zoned restoration centers or camps in order to provide vital services to those recovering from the devastating earthquake of January 12, 2010 and the subsequent tremors and quakes in the days following this day. We are so appreciative of all those who have participated in this combined effort of compassion.
We thank our leadership in Santo Domingo – Rev. Israel Brito, Rev. Victor Medina and those who support them. We especially are blessed by those on the ground in Haiti who have selflessly and tirelessly sacrificed for the sake of their own people – ministers such as Jean Enock & Cloraine Deroseney with Good Samaritan Project, Jocelyn Guillaume of Foundation Guillaume, Roosevelt Brutus, Ambroise & Philemene Menard, and Willem Charles.
We continue to ask for 2 things: your persistent and fervent prayers for the people and land of Haiti and for our efforts to be fruitful; and for financial support to continue with the work of getting Haitians on their feet and living good, godly and productive lives. |

We are so thankful unto the Lord for His grace and for His mercy. The early morning prayer meeting once again startled our people through the inflowing of the Holy Spirit.
Even though transportation and morning food is provided by us for the downtrodden people, still it is an amazing fact that hundreds of people can come at 5:00 am, which is unusual in our areas.
We truly give all the glory to the Lord and thank Him for His grace upon us. We are tirelessly and unceasingly praying for you.
Please continue to pray us and for our upcoming events and the needs pertaining to the events, as Christmas is fast approaching. We pray for His mercies that He allow us to minister to the poor and needy, the downtrodden and the desperate widows, street children and the people in the slums.
Your Humble Servant,
Frank Godberg |
