La Iglesia Domestica (The Domestic Church)
Something important was missing. Home after home, I could not find it- not a crucifix, not a cross, not an image of Jesus was to be found. This is something we take so for granted, that every Christian home has some holy image on their wall. Not here. Thus, a ministry was born- installing prayer altars, teaching family prayer, promoting the Domestic Church. Every family is called to be a place of prayer, service and love- a little church of the home. The pandemic challenged us to get creative in how we were going to minister to the people. The church closed not allowing us to do any formal ministries there. We decided that if we cannot invite them to church, then we will bring the church to them. Poco-o-poco (little by little), we are hoping to visit the homes of those interested in learning how to pray as a family. The idea is not to try to evangelize the entire town all at once, but rather to focus in on a few families, teaching, mentoring, and discipling them into a life
