Las Tunas

Mission work in Las Tunas - Evangelism in Cuba
Marcos Rivero with his family

Marcos Rivero Sinclair is the new MASA missionary for the city and region of Las Tunas. Through training of missionary workers, many new mission churches are planted and encouraged here; some 30 churches have been founded in less than two years. Many people commit their lives to Jesus and very quickly become evangelists themselves because they are so thrilled by what they are experiencing with Jesus.

Let me give you one example: From age 7, Abraham Antonio Garcia had been turned over to demons in spiritist centres. When grown up, he became the leader of the biggest spiritist centre, of which he was in charge for 20 years. About two years ago, he was reached by the gospel and decided to follow Jesus. Now, together with his wife Arenilla, he is a missionary and leader of one of the new churches. Right after their conversion, they started speaking about Jesus to those who had been their fellows when they were involved in satanism. Owing to their convincing testimony and their preaching, 32 people from that spiritist centre have already become Christians and are faithful workers in their church. This is just one of many examples we have heard about and witnessed, and we have been deeply touched. 

Marcos has the task and the gift to mentor the numerous lay missionaries, to encourage and train them. He is a tirelessly committed missionary, who has his people very much at heart. It is with great conviction that we want to go on supporting the church planting projects in the region and especially Marcos Rivero as he is training missionaries and co-workers.
