God has given us a mission to plant churches in Venezuela, and with this vision He’s given us a movement of multiplying disciples. We have been able to train new believers in discipleship since 2007, when we returned to Venezuela after I (Jorge) graduated from Cincinnati Christian University. I am from Caracas and became a Christian through the ministry of the Dye family. In fact, I married Diana Dye, the daughter of the missionaries. Now we all serve together on a team. Our eldest son Joshua is in college in the US, and our other son Jacob serves with us.
Our main objective has been to announce the good news, plant churches, and make disciples who make disciples. We have been providing church planting training and discipleship tools (such as Zume courses, Jonathan Training, and Kairos). In recent years our family has been able to meet physical needs of people living in desperate times because of faithful prayer partners and financial support. We have been holding Bible studies in the prison, providing basic supplies and simple meals to neighborhoods, and bringing hope and help to orphans. We study the book of Romans with people who are just starting to learn about God, and it’s an honor to baptize new believers. Through our small acts of obedience over the years and in conjunction with wonderful teammates, hundreds of people have experienced the love of Jesus in Caracas, and thousands of people have been born again because of our partners who enable this ministry. New churches are rising up in Venezuela, and new leaders are stepping forward in faith.
We will continue to prepare and send missionaries who are doing great things in unreached territories in Venezuela where there are indigenous populations and in unreached countries around the world. It’s our privilege to serve the Lord in this way.
We love you
Jorge and Diana
