Any child can come for the once a week tutoring and homework help sessions. In Santa Matilde, New Song staff offers tutoring for any child. Ervin dreams to see the Santa Matilde church continue to grow, and himself alongside it, in the future. Whatever thing that needs to be done, big or small, Ervin gets the job done with a joyful spirit.Įrvin says that since he rejoined the Christian faith 6 years ago, he has really enjoyed growing in the Lord and having Bible studies with other Christians to learn more about God and be in the presence of other believers. The more he works in that church, the more his relationships with the community there gain reliance and dependency on his servant’s heart. They have 4 children – Jayson Antonio, Britney del Socorro, Natalie Jaoscar, Lisa Margarita.Įrvin has been working for New Song for over a year assisting Pastor Walter in Agua Viva, the Santa Matilde church plant. He is married to Derma del Socorro Balladares Alvarado. Property StaffĮrvin Antonio Arroyo Garcia is one of the garden workers for the Santa Matilde church. Instead of the American staff simply coming in and running a class, Jovanny is being empowered to really take control of the class. He loves teaching and working with kids and youth. Jovanny Rodriguez is a youth in the Candelaria church who speaks very good conversational English. Students do better in their English classes in school when they supplement their regular school with these extra classes. This is a more direct, student by student based class than their normal classroom. There is no other program like this in the Santa Matilde community where students can come and learn basic English building and supporting the foundation they learn in schools. At any point there are between 8 and 23 students in the class. Many children in school needed tutoring and specific instruction for their English classes in school. The vision for this class is to begin with performing dances for the church and then expanding into a ministry for the whole community.Īn English class was started because of a need in the community for extra help for students. The kids are encouraged and do explore their emotions.

This dance class is for all age that want to participate, but the average ages are between 4 and 18 years old.
