A Special Letter from Jose and Mary Alvarez


Dear Christian Family:

Twenty years ago right after Mary and I married, Jesus called me to learn, read, and teach the Bible in its original languages of Greek and Hebrew. The difference in spiritual knowledge acquired from original language studies versus the Bible in English, can be likened to eating sirloin steak to ground beef. For the church to be healthy and strong it must be firmly grounded on a rich foundation of the revelation of the Word of God.

From that, God told us to create a number of original language conferences which treat vital issues affecting the church, but teach them in plain English and for the average Christian. We host these conferences globally as per invitations from churches.

Very frequently God directs us to take these meetings to underprivileged people groups, who do not have the wherewithal to purchase Bible resources, and have little opportunity to grow in its revelational truth.

For eight years in the 1990’s we ministered amongst the Navajo and Pueblo Native Americans Nations of the Southwest. In the 2000’s we moved to Kenya and taught in Uganda, Tanzania and Kenya. In less than three weeks we travel with a team of seven people from Miami, to New Mexico and will teach on the Holy Spirit in a five day Navajo Nation Prophetic Conference. I do not believe that amongst the Navajo people this type of Bible conference has ever been accomplished.

In most cases when Bible conferences are organized, the inviting ministry foots the bill for the guests’ airfares, transportation and lodging. The faith factor in creating Bible conferences for underprivileged people groups is that we foot just about everything. Not only do we purchase our own airfares, and transportation but we provide money towards the logistics of the conference itself.

Our team is in need of money for all of the above. The dynamics of getting seven people on the same flights from Miami to Albuquerque, and back, with about two and half weeks remaining, becomes a Holy Spirit faith issue. Most of us are still praying in our funds in the same way that we have been doing for the last fifteen years. As always, God is faithful.

As I got on my face this morning and sought the Lord for the financial schematic for these upcoming meetings, He told me to post this letter on Facebook, Twitter and our web site, and through it He will speak to people about furnishing the required provisions. This trip is not so much about us, but for the sake of the precious Navajo people, many of them who are so hungry for the Lord, are experiencing a revival, and yet live in great poverty.

God gave me Matthew 7:7 a few weeks back as a theme verse, and so I come to you today asking for finances in the spirit of this scripture.

Mt 7:7 ¶ "Keep on asking, and the gift will be given you; keep on seeking, and you will find; keep on knocking, and the door will open to you.

I would be happy to talk to you more about this conference or creating one for your church or ministry.
