Casa Nazarena

A new church, Casa Nazarena, was organized in the city of Trinidad, Bolivia. The church, led by Pastors Gary and Jessica Olguín, had its sanctuary dedicated in memory of missionaries Larry and Judy Webb.

Initially this dedication was scheduled for the year 2020, but it had to be postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A commemorative plaque was placed with the presence of Judy, Larry's widow, the Mavericks Work & Witness team, Santa Cruz District Superintendent Napoleon Guerrero, president of the Association of Nazarene Churches of Bolivia, Macedonio Daza, and the holistic ministry coordinator for Bolivia, Herman Alcantara.

The Casa Nazarena is a joint work of late missionary Larry Webb. Guerrero, the Mavericks Work & Witness team, and other Bolivian leaders supported the construction of this work. Casa Nazarena is the fruit of the planting of churches in eastern Bolivia, and a vision is in place to open more works in this area of Bolivia.

Casa Nazarena has approximately 1,800 square meters in space. It was organized as a church-type mission with more than 60 members, including children, adolescents, youth, and adults.

"(I am) deeply grateful to God for allowing us to organize the church in Trinidad Casa Nazarena and dedicate the temple in memory of beloved missionaries Larry and Judy Webb,"  Guerrero said.

The Cameroon flag is a vertical tricolor of green, red and yellow, defaced with a five-pointed star in its center. The center stripe is thought to stand for unity: red is the colour of unity, and the star is referred to as "the star of unity." The yellow stands for the sun and also the savannas in the northern part of the country, while the green is for the forests in the southern part of Cameroon.
