CPC Ministries: August 2014

CPC Ministries (short for Cuerdas para Cristo) is dedicated to producing professional violinists and cellists for the music ministry in God's Kingdom. We strive for them to know God intimately through praise, worship, and prayer. We want to facilitate their participation with the rest of the band and give them a larger role in all styles of music using both acoustic and electric violins and cellos with all sorts of effects pedals and bowing techniques. We also want them to know how to minister spiritually with their instruments to believers and unbelievers alike and in this way expand God's Kingdom.

Last Saturday we had a very special event: Yasmín, Melina's little sister, is four years old and had her very first violin class! She had been wanting learn how to play for quite a while, so I got one of our old one-eighth size violins from storage and gave it to her to start on. But I didn't teach her. I'm having Stefanía do it to provide her with her own experience as a violin teacher. Stefanía is my most advanced student, and she already has some experience helping out my other students, so I feel led to compliment that with her own classes that she teaches so she can be trained as a violin teacher. She is thrilled to have this opportunity. Pray that Yasmín will grow up to be an excellent musician in God's kingdom!
