We have had a wonderful Christmas and many opportunities to connect with family and friends. We have also had the privelage of speaking and sharing about missions in many different places the past few months. We are thankful that there are people committed to praying for the lost and dying world in which we live.
Joy and Tim just returned from a week in Richmond, VA. We saw many of our missionary friends we have met over the years. There were also many of our colleagues from South America there as well. It is always hard saying goodbye. We were able to be updated on what is happening at the IMB around the world. We received some additional training and are close to completing the medical clearance process so that we can return to Lima.
In December Caleb received his drivers license and Jacob received his learners. Gray started a part-time job in January. Tim had his knee scoped in November and is doing well.
We recieved an e-mail this week from the pastor of our church in Miraflores that they just had another baptismal service for three new believers from Ventanilla. We are scheduled to speak at several churches over the next few months. And the boys are settled into their new school.
Our stateside is about half over. If anyone would like to talk with us about working with us in Lima please contact us. Or if you would just like to hear more about our work so you would better know how to pray that would be great to.
Please continue to pray for the lost and the new believers as they begin to study their bibles and share their faith with family and friends.
