He lives in difficult financial circumstances in this repressed nation. Most pastors in Cuba work for a bare minimum but see more eternal fruit in the scores of those coming to salvation. Though Carlos isn't permitted to go door to door sharing the gospel, hundreds of hungry seekers pack inside and outside his church to hear of Jesus Christ. There are several pastors in Cuba like Carlos who spend time in prison for their fruitful ministry. The Castro regime has been known to close down churches, arrest evangelists, and confiscate church property.
Most rural pastors travel from village to village on foot.
There is a great need for bicycles. There are many young men willing to move to rural areas where there are no churches. These pastors have no way to support themselves. It only costs 15 dollars a month to support a pastor and his family in Cuba. The church needs our prayers to persevere through this difficult season.
