BONUS EPISODE: Vengo a ustedes ahora, queridos amigos, cuando quizás muchos se pregunten sobre la futura dirección de nuestra Iglesia, para invitarlos a iniciar este camino espiritual conmigo, buscando la gracia del Señor para transformar este tiempo de sufrimiento en un espíritu de renovación para la vida de la Iglesia. Será un recorrido que nos llevará más allá la fatiga que se ha establecido durante semanas que se convirtieron en meses y como lo que esperábamos sería temporal comenzó a cambiar el mundo que nos rodea. Será un recorrido donde nos levantaremos de las tinieblas con el Señor Jesús a nuestro lado, y en obediencia a las mociones del Espíritu Santo que traerán nueva energía y compromiso a la predicación del Evangelio, en palabra y testimonio. Es un recorrido que durará toda la vida.
