Christmas Vacation and January Baseball Clinic Jan 2013

Dear Friends and Family,

We very much appreciate your prayers.  The world seems in many ways to be getting more chaotic, but we still serve a loving caring God that only wants what is best for us.

We were blessed to be in the states for our oldest sons graduation from the University of GA and to spend time with family and friends. Being in church together with family and all of our children and worshiping and praising God in English is a wonderful blessing.

The men that come to Peru to give the baseball clinic were in Lima again this year.  We had over 300 participants.  Testimonies and the gospel are shared at the end of each session.  We had over 100 Nikkei that participated in the clinic.

As people were asked if they had made a decision to follow Christ we had 67 hands raised over the course of the five days we were meeting with the Baseball teams.  Please pray for these 67 young men and women.  This year we had several girls participate.

Please pray for all of our friends as we reconnect and restart many of our English classes and Bible studies.

Please pray for a new church plant in San Isidro and for Matt, a journeyman that just joined us in Lima to also work with the Nikkei.

Also pray for missionaries and pastors we know that have some health problems.  (jp and jl)

God's Blessings and Peace,
the Mitchell's

New Contacts:: Focus:: Sharing

We have met many new people.  We continue to share and try and help with many people that are now our friends or  acquaintances. 
Please pray for us as we share that we would be clear and complete with the message of the greatness of God's love. 

Please pray for those that do not know God that they would have receptive hearts.

Please enjoy some new pictures.

Recent events.  We moved a short distance to a new home.

We have started some new cell groups and focused more on teaching some topical seminars to help people in the areas of communication, family, marriage, relationships and business.
