Greetings in the precious name of the Lord
Jesus.
We wanted to update you on what is
transpiring and ask for prayer as well.
God willing Monday March 23 Kim and
Jonathan will be traveling to Canada. I
will follow April 13th. I am following later to keep our Peruvian
visas active. If we are out of the
country for more than six months we lose our visa. As father only I have to stay and the others
can leave and request their visa based on mine when they return.
Please remember Jonathan as he reintegrates
into North American life after spending the last 5.5 years here in Peru. He will be entering his last year of high
school in September.
God has provided us with some opportunities
for which we are thankful. Kim for the
last month has been meeting with a lady who came to her telling her there was
something missing in her life and she felt it was God. She had met Kim two years before and when she
realized what this void was remembered her and asked to visit. Please pray for Rosa she seems to understand
but comes from a religion of good works and it is hard to get past these works
to salvation by faith alone.
The 29th of March there will be
a baptism and one man (Luis) who professed salvation in November will be
baptized. We have been meeting weekly
since October. One of the brothers at
the meeting has said he will continue to spend time with him in the Word. Please pray he will be faithful.
Please remember Gloria a lady from the
meeting (who invited me to preach the gospel in her home in January). Some of her unsaved friends want to study the
Word of God so I have been encouraging her to start preparing so she can teach
them, but she is hesitant as she feels she does not know enough. God has given her an open door with a number
of people.
Also the father of her children recently
has begun to express interest in the things of the Lord. Interestingly enough he is working for a
public works project and the engineer on the job is a Christian and every day
before they start work has a devotional++ with them.
As you can see there are many things on our
heart as we leave but we know the Lord is able to care for His own.
Recent rains have made our desert very wet and muddy and also causes a number of people to lose part of their homes as they are made of adobe (mud bricks) which are affected by the poor drainage or direct rain.
In the will of the Lord we would like to see many of you while the Lord has us in Canada. In the will of the Lord we will be traveling to Ontario in late May (if we can escape the Maritime snow).
