Annie Armstrong Easter Offering Prayer Guide – Day 4

Annie Armstrong Easter Offering Prayer Guide – Day 4

Join us in the month April for the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering

The Annie Armstrong Easter Offering (AAEO) is the primary way we support mission efforts in North America. One hundred percent of gifts given to AAEO are used to support Southern Baptist missionaries serving across the United States and Canada.

To give to this offering:

You may send a check in the mail – please designate “AAEO” in the memo portion of a check made payable to Grand Avenue Baptist Church.

You may give electronically at gabcames.org/giving choosing the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering Fund.

The offering goal at GABC is $1,250.00.

Over the course of the month we’ll be posting prayer requests from the 2020 Prayer Guide for the Annie Armstrong Easter Offering titled “It’s All About the Gospel”.

The following is the North American missionary spotlight and prayer requests and video for Day 4.

Day 4
Jonathan & Yesenia Santiago, Guaynabo, Puerto Rico

The Road to Recovery
The immediate threat has blown over, but Hurricane Maria left a deep impact in social, emotional and financial scars on Puerto Rico. That overwhelming need is what drew Jonathan and Yesenia back to the island from their home in New York.

Jonathan serves as the director of Send Relief Puerto Rico. He works with local churches and agencies to identify people and communities in crisis and match the needs with the volunteer relief teams arriving each week. Jonathan says that physical needs are easier to address, but it’s the emotional and spiritual issues that also must be acknowledged.

“Although very religious, because of its catholic background that connects o our Spanish heritage, Puerto Rico is mostly lost. I always tell our volunteers, the most important part of their work isn’t the roof they are replacing, it’s the people under the roof,” says Jonathan.

Pray
For wisdom and direction for Jonathan, his family and the volunteers who serve with them.
That God will open doors to share the gospel.
