Yesterday we started a new VBS in a park here in San Juan, in english the park is called Donkey Park. Yesterday was awesome we had 77 kids attend. Our Vbs is three days long with the theme, Jesus loves us so… 1) God made you 2) He has a plan for your life 3) He died for you. Today we were teaching about his plan for for their life, we had about 60 kids attend today. Pray that as we present the gospel to them tomorrow that, we are able to keep them focused, and that we present as clear of a picture of the gospel as possible. Sunday we were in a village...

Peru

Hello friends and family! We´ve arrived and begun diving into relationships with the locals. Our first full day in Peru was spent in Lima walking around, going to different museums and learning more about Peruvian culture. After an eight hour bus ride to Huarraz and then a 1 hour “combi” or van ride to Musho we finally made it without any problems. We are living in Musho, directly behind the church we are working with and living at 10,000 feet. We are still adjusting to the altitude and breathing a little heavier than te Peruvians. Though we are living in...

Philippines

Well, we made it. After a pretty long flight that took us through Los Angeles and Manila – we finally set foot on the island of Cebu. We noticed the heat and humidity immediately, and we have spent the last few days studying the art of running fans on high speed and pausing oscillating fans when they are aimed directly at our bodies. We are a sweaty, sticky bunch of misisonaries… to say the least. Our hosts met us at the airport and treated us like long lost friends right off the bat. They took us shopping at the mall and bought us...

Let the Little Children Come to Me

Ireland

God has been really working here in Ireland. The first week here we had Vacation Bible School at Skerries. On the first day we had only four children. By the end of the week we had eleven. We had six kids give their life to Christ. As much as we left an impact on their lives, God used those children to leave an impact on us as well. Just to see the excitement on their faces as we played games, sang songs, and told Bible stories made me realize how these children had been starving, starving for the joy that comes from the knowing Christ. It was so hard to say bye to them at the end...
