We have had increasing numbers of students enroll with us over recent months which has been exciting to see. After around 20 students attended David Silva's course on Inductive Bible Study back in April, the next month I taught on the subject of the Theology and Practice of Worship to 26 students in the city of Arequipa. The class was very well received and all of the students were challenged to reevaluate and make changes to their corporate worship practices.... Keep Reading

This month has been paradoxical, because though there have been many personal trials that have at times been a discouragement and have even caused tears, at the same time I have seen God move in the church, as I’ve seen how the brothers and sisters have helped me and brothers have stepped up to assume greater teaching responsibilities both in the services and in the homes that we visit....

This month we have had some very helpful activities at our church. On Father’s Day we took food to the fathers of several of the children who have been coming to our Bible school.

Thankfully, our church is doing well and we have returned to our normal hours, which were interrupted because of the rains. This month, God worked in the life of a new sister named Carmen. She began trusting in Christ while she was in a state of very poor health. After receiving Christ she decided to obey an important command of our God and she formalized her marriage. ...

In the middle of April the rains began to come to an end in our region. These rains left many people without homes, food, clothing, etc. Because of this, our church began to collect clothes, water, food, and other supplies and we took it to those who were in need. We visited four different refugee camps. As Ephesians 2:10 tells us, we were saved to walk in good works.... Keep Reading
