WE thank God that in CMA
Paraguay , we continue to see how the protection and care of our Lord is with us in every activity in which we are involved . Each chapter throughout the country realized activities according to the gifts and talents that the members bring to the service of the ministry . We are a ministry that can communicate in 6 different languages : Spanish , Guarani , German , Low German , Portuguese , and English . In the CMA Paraguay amily , we interact among diverse cultures , which enriches us , and each one serves according to the gift he / she has received .
“ As each one has received a gift , minister it to one another , as good stewards of the manifold grace of God ” ( 1 Peter 4:10 , NKJV ).
In the past year , in the headquarters of CMA Paraguay , “ La Cueva ” where we have lodging for motorcyclists , we have received motorcycle travelers from many countries in Latin America , such as Brazil , Argentina , Chile , Peru , Ecuador , Mexico , and Colombia ; also , from Europe such as France , Switzerland , Hungary , Thailand ,
Australia , and Germany . This is an excellent opportunity to demonstrate a spirit of service and hospitality while allowing us to share the Gospel , pray for their lives , and personally sow the Word of God .
The VI National Rally , held in April 2023 with the theme “ Accelerating for Jesus ” was a great experience . Koinonia was achieved among the members , who shared experiences during the morning devotional times , moments of fellowship , and free time to share ; this generated an atmosphere of friendship and encouragement to continue taking the Gospel on the road .
In CMA Paraguay , we are willing to serve members in difficulties , other MCs , motorcycle travelers , and people in need , showing solidarity , fellowship , and help . There were multiple opportunities to pray for sick people , bless motorcycles , and encourage brothers who had gone through difficult ordeals .
As a testimony , we can add the words of Brother Roberto Hernandez , a missionary from Mexico in Paraguay since 2009 ; he took the course of membership in the year 2022 ; these were his words when he received the big CMA patch : “ It was a time of learning , but what impacted me most is the vision of the ministry , changing the world , one heart at a time , is a powerful phrase , which encourages us to be intentional to share the Gospel in every opportunity we have , in every route or at every stop , in every situation that we find ourselves . Wearing the patch is a symbol of what God has already done in our lives and shows us as witnesses to Jesus in a visible way . CMA is a good place for gifts and talents to bring forth fruit .”
Participating in other MCs ’ events to perform the opening prayer and “ blessing ” of the events allows us to share CMA ’ s vision of changing the world , one heart at a time . In that way , the ministry is positioned little by little in the minds and hearts of motorcyclists , being referred to as the ministry of Christian motorcyclists . The honor and glory go to our Lord Jesus Christ . CMA Oskar Klassen serves as President of CMA Paraguay .
