Holidays!!!

WOW!! Hard to believe that it’s January already. we had a wonderful time here over the holidays with a dedication service in San Lorenzo and a Christmas Eve service here. We drank hot chocolate and ate panatone (a Peruvian tradition).
In the service on Christmas Eve we had two young men come that had never come before so that made our group about 10!! It has been amazing to be apart of God building up a group of believers from nothing when we got here to 10 people in just two months.
During the holidays we took a break from the discipleship classes because people had family over and stuff. And so this week we started up again and things are going better than ever! The people missed us and are happy that we are back. And on that note it is good to be back to work. It is amazing to see how much of an impact we have made in these peoples lives and we really feel like we are apart of this community.
One of the first ladies that we met here is Guadalupe and we have been discipling her and visiting her and her family for two months now and just this week Friday the 8th she accepted Christ into her heart and is hungry to learn more about Jesus and the Bible. Praise God!! Please keep praying for her and the rest of her family so they can see her example and follow.
We have added another day for church services! Thursday! So now we have services on Sunday in the evening, Tuesday in the evening, and now Thursday in the evening! And the exiting part is that it was the people in the church that asked for this not us! We like to see this kind of dedication in new believers! It is very encouraging. So now between San Lorenzo and here we are doing five church services a week! Praise God!!!
Well, that’s the news for this time, please check again soon and may God bless you and all you do.
