Willemstad:---Staff of the U.S. Forward Operating Location (USFOL) in Curacao donated 430 English bibles and bible study aids to the El Bethel Church in Mahaai, on March 24. Chaplain, Captain Brad Phillips from the Chaplain's office at the USFOL presented the Bibles to the pastor of the El Bethel Church, Norvell Fornerino in a special presentation ceremony. Pastor Fornerino was very grateful and said, "We thank the U.S. Air Force for these bibles and study guides.
We will use them to teach the Word of God to all our members in the days and weeks to come as we build the kingdom of God." Pastor Fornerino has been the pastor of the El Bethel church for the past 7 years. The church has approximately 100 members who attend services each Sunday at 10:30 as Pastor Fornerino preaches and teaches the Bible in an "English speaking" service.
Pastor Fornerino has also preached in the "English speaking" service held at the Holiday Beach Hotel, where Chaplain Phillips preaches each Sunday morning at 9:15. This bible donation illustrates a perfect pairing of faith and community involving the USFOL service man and women located here in Curacao and the El Bethel Church of Mahaai.
