 "When I arrived here, I felt a lot of peace, I felt the presence of the Lord, it was very warm. When I joined the brothers, I felt it as they were a family. I received the Word in my heart from the Lord and understood that I must apply this faith in my life. I must apply all the things I learned in what I do for the glory and honor of His Name," said Venus of Puerto Ordaz.

 "This retreat was very precious, the Lord made something very precious in my life. We needed this time to be filled and visited by the presence of God. I was motivated to impart and teach about faith and obedience. Furthermore, the mission works are very precious and I hope there are other opportunities for other to join, where we can gather together in harmony to receive more blessings from the Lord," said the missionary Carmen de Los Teques.

 "For me, this has been an encounter with the Lord. I was confirmed that faith and obedience are the way to receive the blessing. I felt that I was molded this time, today I feel a greater commitment. I will not stop making more effort and sacrifice, I have received confirmation from the Lord, this really does not have a price that can be paid. I will be put more effort on a daily basis to maintain what I have received here, "said José, leader of Jubilee Venezuela
