Verónica used to be ashamed of her husband José. He drank constantly and didn't respect their marriage vows. She was embarrassed by how he acted.

But now Verónica is proud to stand beside her husband. José met Christ and gave up his sin. Once he saw the need for Christ in his own life, he saw how his community also needed the Lord. Kunkuk, Ecuador is a town where the people drink and party a lot. Families are broken from infidelity and alcoholism.

"I talked with Verónica and our kids about planting a church in our community," says José. "They agreed and we began receiving the training with Multiplication Network Ministries (MNM). With what we learned, we started sharing the gospel with our neighbors."

People began to come to their Bible study meetings. There Verónica and José lead them in singing and reading the Bible in their native language, Shuar.

"We are very happy and grateful to God. Our group has more than 30 people attending and I know they are happy to hear God's Word," Verónica says.

Because of this couple's work, the people of Kunkuk are changing their ways and finding true value in Christ. Verónica and José are grateful for the training they received from MNM because it resulted in a health church for their community.
