Louisville, KY – Pastors Conference
One of the goals of our ministry is to strengthen and encourage the local churches in the cities where we have festivals. We do this by conducting evangelism, leadership and discipleship training conferences for pastors and church leaders.
In Louisville, over 600 pastors and leaders attended our Pastors Conference!
Thank you for your prayers and support. We are so grateful for your partnership!

Louisville, Kentucky – May 18th, 2019
Did you know one of the fastest growing immigrant groups in America is found in Louisville, Kentucky? Louisville is considered a ‘global city’; now home to a community of approximately 9,000 Cubans and counting. Most of Kentucky’s Cuban population have come seeking refuge from hardships in their native country.
For the first time in the history of MSI, we’ll be doing Festival Por La Vida (‘Festival For Life’) on U.S. soil this May 18, 2019!
This will be a small-scale, big-impact outreach highly focused on local church partnerships, counselor training, and affinity events including pastor/leader conferences and a marriage conference. There will also be a ‘FestiKids’ children’s outreach, action sports, and music from some of the top Christian Spanish artists in the world!
Most Cuban families have come to America for a better life; but many are still searching for purpose and hope. That is why this outreach is of utmost importance. Our prayer is that our festival will have a tremendous impact on this community. And I believe, by faith, we will see a mighty harvest of souls on May 18th!
We will host multiple festival pre-launch events including training and equipping leaders and counselors with materials they need to effectively respond to decision-makers after the Gospel message is given on the festival night.
Please pray Ezekiel 36:26 with us for the Cubans in Louisville – that the Lord would give a new heart and spirit to those who respond to Him! That He would remove stony, stubborn hearts and replace them with tender, responsive hearts instead!
May He beckon MANY to Himself on May 18th!

Well of Life and Festival for Life
La Canada de Camboya was a community without safe drinking water for its estimated 1,100+ people. Through the Festival and generous supporters like YOU, we were able to provide drinkable water via a new water system and additional holding tanks.
From this came the Government’s commitment to further care for the families living in La Canada by paving roads, improving electricity and more.
During the well dedication celebration, when the Gospel was given, dozens more responded. What a great start to the day!

Barahona Pastors Conference
Last night was our “Fruit That Remains” Pastors Conference and hundreds of leaders gathered to pray, learn and worship together. Mike Silva and Pastor Jaime Loya of Cross Church in San Benito, Texas, had a powerful word of encouragement and inspiration for the Pastors and Leaders of this City. The growing hope and belief that their city will be spiritually revived and transformed because of what God is doing this week was palpable in that place. It was an incredible time of unity for the church in Barahona as well! What an honor it is to be a part of this monumental time.
Thank you so much to the supporters and prayer warriors who are making this trip possible. It couldn’t be happening without you and we are so grateful for what has taken place already and what is yet to come in our last few days here!
