Cuzco Trip

Today is Feb 20. Jerry, Joe, Carlos and I are in The Sacred Valley of the Incas. We are doing pastor training and evangelism events. We have visited many churches and encouraged many believers in the churches. The Lord has worked and many people have prayed to receive Christ. Yesterday we were able to find the parents of two of the members of our church. This was a great opportunity to visit family members from our mission church in Mira Flores.

In most of the various events we used translators from English to Quechua or Spanish to Quechua. A young man named Josue or Joshua that was serving as one of the translators accepted Christ today as well. God moved in many peoples lives.

Please pray for the training sessions, church services, the new believers and those that rededicated their lives to the Lord.

FEB 12, 2008 THE MITCHELL MOMENT

The Kawasaki Family at our house in San Isidro. They are Baptist Missionaries from Japan also working in Peru with the Nikkei and Japanese.
All of the other pictures are Nikkei friends from the Nikkei Business Association where we teach ESL. This is the Matsuri celebration. (Japanese Festival)

PEOPLE and Ministries to pray for:

After our baptism service we were asked to discontinue meeting at the restaurant. The church is currently meeting at the park.

Joy has a Japanese ladies ESL class that meets in our home on Thursday mornings.

Tim and Joy both teach ESL at a Nikkei business association on Saturday night. We are making many friends there. The President of the organization told us this past weekend that he wanted to discuss with us about teaching more classes. (The names of our most regular students are: Lucho, Chio, Diana, Roberto, Rut, & Ricardo)

Tim teaches ESL on Monday afternoons at a Collegio America. (Guillermo Yoshikawa is the principle)

Nikkei prayer meeting is Tuesday afternoons.

Tim and Joy have Nikkei students we are now tutoring: Hiro, Daisuke, and Roberto. (More of the Nikkei speak Japanese than we first thought. Also, the Buddhist tradition really comes through in their world view as you talk and have more indepth discussions.)

Tim is teaching a Discipleship class Friday mornings for the Prince Mission members.

Our kids started back to school this week.

B&P,
The Mitchells in Peru
