|Hi again, friends,
Well, Perú has a new president. We trust he will do the country good, and we pray for our governments. We pray for the situation in the U.S. too, which is much worse than here. But God is in control and He wants us to pray.
Bob is on his way to Espinar where there will be meetings this weekend. He will be sharing with the brethren from many churches in the area and working with our national workers there. We are thankful that God's work is growing in this whole area, mostly Quechua speakers, but with hearts open to God's Word. Thank you so much for praying for us and for the many areas where God has raised up believers in Himself. We are just instruments of the Lord in this work, please also pray for our national workers, especially Daniel and Zenon, who works in other areas too.
Bob also is ministering more here in counseling and discipling, seems like everyone wants him to solve all their problems. Bob has seen growth in lives though, one on one, or in small group Bible studies. Some new families are coming, with some young folks searching for the Truth in the Lord. So teaching, preparing, and counseling take up a good bit of his time.
The school is especially active this year. So much going on, we are blessed with many Christian teachers, mostly content parents, tutors, and students. Still, there is a lot of work involved. Marino has been promised the final signature for the Civil Defense license the school needs, though all the required changes sure cost a lot in time and funds. It certainly is worth it to be able to share God's Word with all our over 250 students, and we ask you to keep praying and helping where you can in this effort. There is fruit in lives being formed.
God has given us good health, yet we have had some medical issues this year. We thank Him nothing is too serious and we pray to be able to continue till He calls us elsewhere.
Thanks so much for standing with us, praying and sharing as you can. Thanks, and many blessings for you, Noél for us
