Brother Jara, a doctor of Nuclear Medicine by profession, is also a pastor and the distributor for Voice Of God for Paraguay and Uruguay. Our brother has been working with us for over 17 years and has been a great blessing to the believers and the work being done in Paraguay. Brother Jara keeps very busy as he assists at the University Hospital, operates his own medical clinic and pastors a church of 250 people. On the weekends, he goes to the rural areas and distributes the books and tapes.The Lord made it possible for Brother Jorge to learn English when he was in Chicago, Illinois attending medical school. Because of his ability to speak English, he was able to translate for Brother Joseph when he was in Argentina in 1989. A father of four children, he has a great love for the people. This is evident in his medical practice and the great sacrifice and effort he makes to distribute the Message to those in his country and Uruguay. As a doctor of nuclear medicine, Brother Jara has traveled to foreign countries for medical conferences and this has provided him the opportunity to be of help to us and the believers where he has visited.
