Bonnie & Ernesto Teachout Rodriguez
Ernesto and Bonnie are testimony to the goodness of God and to His love for them and through them! Ernesto is from Cuba, they met while Bonnie was a missionary in Chiapas, Mexico and she went to Cuba to train evangelists. God is a matchmaker! He brought them together and now they are married and serving God in the jungles and highlands of Chiapas, Mexico as well as Cuba!
Bonnie and Ernesto have changed direction in their Chiapas ministry from evangelism because the cartel doesn’t allow them on the roads. God, through you- their supporters! has provided a Hacienda and they are taking in trafficked girls who are pregnant. (Some little girls as young as 11!) Their purpose and plan are to save both mothers and babies, introduce them to Jesus and His love, and train them in family life and skills they can use to work and support themselves when they leave. Please pray as they need funds for each young lady’s food, doctor care, and baby care, as well as salaries for the staff who will be helping. But mostly the patience and passion to share the love of Jesus with little girls who have only known pain.
Ernesto and Bonnie also work in Cuba, doing Multiply training in the churches, and their ministry, Robles de Justicia (Oaks of Righteousness) supports 13 pastors and evangelists who have no other means of support in Cuba- helping them fulfil the commission of Jesus in a country that has been closed to the Gospel for over 50 years.
“Thank you for your prayers as we continue to take His light into such darkness! ”
