Monday Morning Update

Hey church...

Bobby and I have really enjoyed our time so far. We had a lady last night at our Bible study who was very close to receiving Christ. Her name is Islena. We didn´t want to pressure her so we told her we would follow up later this week. Hopefully she´ll come back to Bible study tonight.

As Bobby and I talked together this morning, we both agreed that the absolutely critical part that will make this thing go is to have a man who is willing to lead while we are gone. If this is to become a church eventually then someone will have to step up and be the pastor. This is our main prayer focus now. There´s a lot of details that I will tell you when I return that would take forever to write.

We´re going to visit the orphanage here in a few minutes. Blessings church...

Hey Mark!

Just caught up with the goings on in Peru...sounds like God is doing amazing things! I pray that the hearts of the Coracora people will be open to His word, and that He will continue to encourage you and Bobby to spread the Good News. Our God is so awesome!!

Stay safe....

Hi Mark!
Glad to hear you made it safely and are doing great things in such a short amount of time! We are all praying for your success & safety. We are also keeping Emily in our prayers as it must be very difficult for her to have you away and so far from home. May God continue to bless you on your mission.

Thanks for the encouragement everybody. Next two days will be real important as we try to organize this little group to continue meeting after we leave. I´ll write more about that tomorrow.

Praying for Islena's salvation and for leadership in the Bible study. Sounds like God is at work. Good stuff.
