Dear Friends of Cuba,
God is so good to us. Our friends
Rene and Mabel Dominguez will be going back to Cuba on Thursday. They are so
thankful for the hospitality and kindness shown to them while they were in West
Palm Beach. God provided opportunities for them to share in many different
venues while they were here. This weekend, they will be sharing in Tampa area
churches.
Abdias Frometa, from Havana, is in
Jacksonville this weekend, visiting with several churches. He will be will be
sharing with FBCOrange Park in their morning services tomorrow and in a Spanish
congregation that evening.

He will make classroom visits that
morning, as he did on his previous visit to FBCWPB.
We will host a gathering for him
here at our home on Sunday afternoon (Aug. 19) for those who would like to hear
more about what God is doing in Cuba.
For more information on what is
happening in Cuba, see the Fall 2012 Florida Baptist Missions emagazine which contains the article, Fishing for souls in Cuban waters... detailing statistics and information from our contacts in
Cuba, Dr. Alberto Gonzalez and his son, David, both of the Western Cuban Baptist
Convention.
In 2011, nearly 1,600 people received Christ and 2,632 followed their commitment and were baptized in Cuba. The
total of churches in the WCBC has risen to 328 with more than
65,000 believers worshipping together! Around 2,000 missions and house churches were planted in 2011.
The photo in the article is from Mariel, a coastal town known for the 80's Mariel boat lifts. As a result of controls being lifted in Mariel, we have been partnering with 4 churches in this town over these last two years. We are thrilled to see how churches and missions are reaching out and winning souls.
We thank God for missionaries from
FBCWPB being actively involved in these exciting results that are making an
impact for the Kingdom. Some of your may remember that Dr. Alberto Gonzalez
spoke at FBCWPB years ago when he was here on a religious visit.
