that this is because it is difficult to remove these bad habits
from our lives. So, I left where I was and remembered

On Friday, April 15, in the last service, my God spoke to
me in praise with the last song of the psalmist Genesis
Campos. Here, the Lord made me return to the year 2020
—when with that song I returned to his path—, and I heard
a voice that told me: “Do you remember that with this song
you came back to me.” And when the spiritual gifts came,
God used me.

And on the last day, Saturday, April 16, I was dancing


when God spoke to me for the second time: “See behind
your back. In my time and not in yours, you will be singing
to people as you see now.” Since I was little, I have
wanted to be in the praise team. I know that God used
me in those two points because what I felt was something
extraordinary; it was not me but the Lord who worked in
me. The retreat was a great blessing!

OD BLESS YOU. I want to tell you about my
experience at the Summer Retreat. It was a
miracle that the Lord allowed me to travel to the
retreat since my wife could not go, as she was recovering
from surgery. My surprise was much greater to have had
the experience of the filling of the Holy Spirit, to the level
that I consider it to be “completely filled with his Spirit.”
This is my great miracle because I cannot stop thinking
about the magnitude of his presence that I felt, even sitting
in my chair on Esplanade Five, sometimes I felt that the
Lord opened the heaven to me and took me with Him. It

day. At the time of saying goodbye, they told me that there

be more united with the Lord, and we longed to be filled
with that unity that only He can give in every aspect,
marriage, and Church.

But that day, we were moved to another dimension in our


marriage because of the infilling of the Holy Spirit. After
the retreat, we can say that his Spirit of unity has fallen on
us, opening the doors of blessing and unity for my family.

I bless the ministry that God has granted our Apostle


Sergio Enríquez to direct, which is a blessing for the entire
body of Christ.

Blessings.

I WAS ABLE TO
FORGIVE
Carina Yanes

IN MY NUCLEAR family, we had the desire to participate


in the retreat, but it was not possible. We set out to follow
the transmissions, and so we did. In one of the sermons,
the Apostle Sergio spoke about forgiveness —which
makes us forget— and I forgave. God brought people to
my mind to forgive them; it was something extraordinary.
The next day another pastor was ministering, and when he
began to pray, I had a release as there was someone else
I hadn’t forgiven yet; it was a very beautiful thing for me to
be free of that. I hope my testimony is a blessing for those
who have not yet forgiven someone. Greetings!

N SATURDAY, April 16, at the closing of our
glorious retreat, at the moment of praise, while I
was dancing outside the tent looking at the sky
and contemplating what the Lord was doing; some clouds
in the shape of angels landed. This caught my attention
due to the ministration we had from our beloved Apostle
Sergio in the last service of the retreat. Without a doubt,
many of us were transferred to another dimension, seeing
things differently. What is written in Haggai 2:9 ESV is
fulfilled: “The latter glory of this house shall be greater than
the former, says the Lord of hosts. And in this place I will
give peace, declares the Lord of hosts.”
