Beautiful Grand Cayman
Ps Milton Alvarez of the USA was instrumental in introducing me to the Cayman Islands. He got me into contact with the Cayman Outreach Association's chairman, Raphael Bodden....and the rest is history!
Cayman Outreach Association
They are the equivalent of the Full Gospel Businessmen Chapter - and they are generous and helpful. They sponsored my trip from USA to Cayman Islands and also my trip to Cuba. They love Jesus and they have a great heart for the nation of Cuba.

Mr Hawkins - he is a generous man; asked me to go to his shop to pick any pair of shoes I like. Apparently he does that for all visiting speakers! |
First Assembly Youth Outreach Night
I was privileged to share for 5 minutes to a group of young people, many of whom are not Christians at First Assembly of God. I spoke about "potential" - how God called Gideon a courageous man when he was not - because God saw potential!

Young people on Thursday night

Ps Bobb and wife, First Assembly of God |
On the following Sunday I spoke at the Evening service. I had a great time ministering the word. I could feel the anointing of the Holy Spirit. Ps Bobb took the altar call after many responded to the challenge of the Word.

|
Many if not all responded to the altar call on Sunday night
|
The hunger and sincerity of the people is very heart warming indeed |
Filipino Groups
I was amazed at the number of Filipinos in Cayman Islands - I guess they are everywhere on this earth! They are a hard working and industrious people.
I was glad that I could share briefly to two groups - a Baptist Cell Group and a Church. Ps Ed Nacion of the latter was most supportive - he had a lot of people turned out for the COA Dinner night on Saturday. Thanks Ps Ed!
I know that both groups were really blessed.

School Ministry
I spoke at an elementary school's chapel after my return from Cuba - it was a fun assignment. The kids love a good Biblical story...told it my way!!

Chapel time

Year 6 boys - they too loved the story |
COA Dinner Night
The COA holds a Dinner Night once every month. I was most privileged to be the speaker for September 08. There were many pastors there, so all the more I felt the honour. I gave my testimony to great effect - many came and told me how it impacted them. Praise God!

Ministerio Internacional Reino En Victoria
This is Ps Enrique Matienzo's Spanish speaking church in Grand Cayman. I spoke on Sunday night and the Holy Spirit was there throughout the night. Many were touched by the Lord; many were in tears and many were slained at the altar....what a night!
The Spanish/Cuban people know how to sing and dance - they were very good.

|
Ps Enrique, Zulema and Ps Steven
|
They certainly can sing and dance! What a joyful noise to the Lord! Gloria a Dios! |

Meeting people
Part of the fun of ministry is meeting strangers - strangers who soon become friends....
 |
 |
|
With Devon Wright - he picked me up from the airport, not once but twice. Pity I did not have opportunity to catch up with him regarding his ministry
|
Dinner with two great men - Dr George Siemer (middle right), Faith Theological Seminary & Christian College, Tampa, Flordia & Ps Anson Bobb (left), Faith Outreach Center, Tampa, Florida. Wonderful men and wonderful dinner too - thanks to Dr. Charles (right) |
Beautiful Cayman
The islands are a haven for scuba divers and tourists from all over the world. It is a crown jewel in the Caribbean. I stayed at the Harbour View apartment - it was wonderful; full facilities including wifi access, cable TV among other things....the view outside is stunning - crystal clear waters with fish swimming in full view!
 |

|
The apartment was splendid - it was such a pleasure to stay there

Just outside in full view the giant cruise ship bringing the tourists and the money for the local economy |
