To the fields!

We are leaving this morning to help Sixto in his field. We are not sure what type of work we will be doing but we are praying that God helps us to build a relationship with Sixto. We will have a long walk up the mountain so please join us in praying that God gives us strength. I asked one of our summer missionaries last night if she was going to let a 60 or 70 year old man beat her up the mountain. In all reality – he will beat us all!

It is colder this morning. 54 degrees in our room and 42 outside. My fingers are getting numb trying to type!

We had a great breakthrough last night – our first Bible Study with a small group. Our small group is two but we will all meet again on Wednesday night in Manuel’s house. This is amazing! Manuel is not a believer – yet – but he has come a long, long way since our first visit in 2008. Louisa is the lady that was baptized during our trip in September 2009. They have some friends that they will be inviting. Please pray for them to have courage!

Here is a picture of Chris helping Manuel rebuild a hut here in the hostel. Manuel even invited Chris to his house to eat lunch. These summer missionaries are doing an incredible job of jumping right in – God is going to use them in some awesome ways this summer.

Thank you for all of your prayers and comments. We appreciate you joining us on this journey to Peru.
