No nonsense would describe Carlitos. He doesn’t like needless sparkles and glitter.
In the last 25 years he has taught most of the Angaite children how to read. He is the director of the government school. Although there are two other teachers also at the school, Carlitos teaches all the new students how to ready.
After the children have been in his class for a few days the fact that he loves and cares for them is obvious.
God has moved mightily in his life and given Carlitos the gift of teaching. The examples that he uses from everyday life make the truths of God’s word easy to understand and apply to the daily life of the Angaite people.
One time he was trying to describe how people without Christ are lost and really spiritually dead. He bent down and uprooted a small plant. Holding it in his hand he looked at it and said "This plant looks alive, but it is really dead… it just hasn’t withered yet’. People without Christ are like that ‘dead but look alive’.
Pray that he will continue to be ‘God’s man’ in every area of life. The pressures of village life can at times be over-whelming… pray that Carlitos will have the wisdom from God to know how to handle each situation that he finds before him.
