Updates from Peru

The team has been unable to blog because of the clouds but today the rainy weather has started to let up. It's still cold!

One boy named Anthony accepted Christ last night. The team has witnessed to him each previous trip - truly a precious young one. A few others have said that they have accepted Christ but the team is still working with them to make sure that they understand the decision. God is moving in their hearts. Please pray for two that are very close - Jackie and Wilder (pronounced Will-daire).

Today is Peru's independence day. The team was invited to march in the parade. Kevin just called after the parade was finished and said that the team was introduced in the parade as United States missionaries, not as tourists. This is a huge step in acceptance by the community.

God has been so good to the team as they interact with people and the walls are starting to come down. There is so much work to be done but for the team to be able to see the progress on this trip has been a great blessing.

Please pray for the team's interaction with the people today as this is their last full day in the villages. The team begins the journey to Lima on Wednesday.
