or &#8220;with faith&#8221;.\u00a0 Life is not always easy, but they have been examples to us of faith, strength and encouragement in the midst of hardship.\u00a0 We praise God for them and the work He has done and IS doing in their lives.\u00a0 Gracias a Dios!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0428.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2954\" alt=\"Reuben giving his testimony\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0428-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/delp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0428-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/delp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0428-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0429.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-2955\" alt=\"DSC_0429\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0429-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/delp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0429-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/delp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0429-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0441.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-2956\" alt=\"The Rocha's and Delp's\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0441-300x200.jpg\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/delp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0441-300x200.jpg 300w, http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/delp\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2014\/05\/DSC_0441-1024x682.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-report-this\"><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.covchurch.org\/delp?moderation_action=report_form&object_type=post&object_id=2948&width=250&height=300\" class=\"thickbox\" title=\"Report This Post\">Report This Post<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The majority of the Rocha family, although missing a couple after lunch on Sunday by the Panecillo We had the great opportunity to host the majority of the Rocha family last weekend.\u00a0 In case you forgot who the Rocha&#8217;s are, they are the administrators of the Covenant Camp in Santo Domingo.\u00a0 In November and December, &hellip;
