We have had many great reunions this month. We have also been involved in many interesting conversations. Plus we have met many new people.
Pray that the Nikkei would come to believe in a creator God. A God that loves them and desires them to be His children. Many Nikkei have a syncritized worldview of Budhism and Shinto mixed together with a little bit of the teachings of the "man" Jesus mixed into their thinking process. Thus we are learning that more and more of them have an animistic worldview, basically believing that God exists as a part of all nature. They believe that their are good spirits and bad spirits. They consult tarrot card readers for dates of when to make major decisions in their lives.
Nikkei:
Please pray for: L, C, D, K, M, R and I.
Peruvians:
Praises a Peruvian friend has told me he has accepted Christ and desires to be baptized. Please pray for M and his family.
God has brought many new people into our path this month. Pray that we will be light for them.
Plus, we met a Nikkei business person who has been gone from Peru since we arrived. She has been in Taiwan getting a Masters Degree. While there she accepted Christ. She is now back in Peru for a time. She is not sure how long. Please pray for God's direction in her life.
We thank you for your prayers. Pray that Holy Spirit would draw the Nikkei to Himself.
Blessings and Peace,
The Mitchell Family

Know that we continue to pray for all of you as you allow God to reach people with the gospel through you. Pastor Baca will be transiting through Lima on his way to and from Chile October 9 - 26. Also, we are planning another trip into Calca/Pisac February 14-21 (and hope Tim can go with us)...so I plan to see all of you then as I will be staying around Lima with Carlos some extra days to see the work in Ventinilla and traveling to Trujillo...and of course Miraflores.
Please tell Luke we are 2-1 this year, but have Athens Academy on tomorrow. Also, if you get a chance, you can listen to the varsity games via the web at www.wmsl.fm on Friday nights at 7:10pm eastern time.
