Moving upward in Peru





We have moved into our apartment that is on the third floor on the EFATA compound. We have taken the last couple of weeks putting finishing touches on the apartment so that we could begin moving our furnishings and getting settled. We are thankful to those at EFATA ministries who have worked on the apartment and helped us adapt to the culture. We have been using our luggage containers for living room furniture, closets, desks, shelves, tables, etc... for the last couple of weeks but now have mattresses, living room furniture, refrigerator, stove, and a washer/dryer in our apartment. Thank you to those who generously gave toward our transition fund. We are looking forward to getting bed frames, kitchen table and chairs, food pantry, and end tables made out of wood in the near future.
On January 25th-27th, the ministry here had a Pastor's Conference, where it was encouraging to hear the preaching throughout each day and see the Holy Spirit working in hearts. Please join with us in praying that the decisions would be sincere and steadfast before God. We rejoice with those who accepted Christ as their Savior as well as those who obeyed God's leading for their life. The Saturday following the conference we went out soul-winning where two ladies received Christ as their Savior. On Sunday, the church rejoiced together when David, one who they have been praying for many years, came forward during the invitation to get saved. Praise the Lord! What a blessing to see God working in hearts in Peru.

We have begun the process of paperwork for our resident visa's and will need to be patient for the next two months. We are praying that there will be no complications and that we will be approved to stay.

Thank you for your interest in our ministry and for reading about what God is doing.
May God be Glorified always!
