A typical sight to see when traveling through the Andes Mountains.  A Peruvian lady making what appears to be a rug.  There are so many precious Peruvians open to the Gospel of Christ.

"How then shall they call on him whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in him of whom they have not heard?  and how shall they hear without a preacher?"  Romans 10:14

We want to thank each of you that are partnering with us and Christ to take the message of salvation and holiness to a hungry people!

COMARGO CAMP

God's presence was sensed in a very special way at Comargo Camp this year.  God helped us immensely in the teaching of the children about the wonderful God of Space.  We had some concerns that our services had to be held in a tent and there were a few days of rain.  As we stood in water over our shoes while getting the tent decorations set up, we realized that it reminded us of working in the jungles of Peru! :)  Our decorations rolled and sagged with the moisture in the air, but the children never seemed to notice.  They were an excellent bunch to work with. 

A special thank you to the Brookside Allegheny Church and my dad for loaning their microphone, amp, and stand so that I could be heard over the sound of the fans blowing in the tent. 
I also had awesome helpers in Bro. & Sr. Dave Jowers, Michelle Probst, my mother, and last but not in any way least my husband Bryon.  All contributed greatly to make the children's camp a success!  Praise HIS Name!

God came in the camp services with one service lasting until 12:15 am as the young people sought and praised God with such freedom!  We so appreciate our young people that have such a passion to live a life pleasing unto HIM!  May we older ones continue to be a Godly example before their lives.

Camp wasn't without a medical issue.  Bryon appeared to have a gallbladder attack and wound up in the emergency room twice.  With meds, a strict diet, and prayer he seems to be doing much better for which we praise the Lord!  He still needs to have a gallbladder function test that is scheduled for next week.  We are so thankful that God has our very times in HIS hands.....we can rest in HIM that whatever comes our way HE is in charge!

CHILDREN'S MINISTRY

God divinely led us to become the children's workers at the Brethren In Christ campmeeting.  We worked all week teaching the children about the wonderful GOD OF SPACE, who can do the impossible!!  Not only did they learn about AN ALL-POWERFUL GOD, they also learned many space facts.  We enjoyed working with these precious souls.  It also did these two missionaries good to remember that we are serving the God of the IMPOSSIBLE who is sufficiently able to supply for HIS ministry in Peru!!!

Through this outreach doors opened for our Peruvian ministry.  We are hoping to be able to hold services in churches that we made contact with while at the camp.  The brethren at this camp welcomed us with open arms and prayed over us during their commissioning of their own missionaries.  Bryon also sat on a mission panel explaining the differences culturally and the spiritual needs in Peru.

We are now setting up to begin children's ministry at Comargo Camp.  We are excited to teach these wonderful young people about our GREAT BIG WONDERFUL GOD!!  Samuel is especially excited, for he will be able to visit with his church friends that he has been missing during all our travels.

We have continued to travel throughout four states, telling others about God's call upon our lives and what we believe HE wants to do in Peru.  We are so thankful for each of you that are choosing to partner with us and God as we endeavor to reach the lost in Peru with the GOOD NEWS!
