Departure to the Field

We will be departing for Lima, Peru at 2:55 p.m. from Philadelphia on Thursday, June 4 and arriving in Lima the following day at 4:10 a.m. Our first task is to find a place to stay and move our furniture from Trujillo to Lima. Next we need apply for Ruth’s resident visa. The first two months in Peru will bring major changes to our lives. When the Lord brings us to your memory, please pray for us as we adjust, adapt and grow by God’s grace and in His grace.

We do not yet have a mailing address or phone in Peru. However you will be able to communicate with us by e-mail at the same addresses as before: stanperu@gmail.com and peruruth@gmail.com.

Answer on Radio Station Offer

Our offer for the purchase of a radio was not accepted. The company has made the decision not to sell the station for less than $600,000. Since God has not supplied this amount, we continue to wait and see what His direction will be for us.

There are three other radio stations that are in danger of losing their license. If the government revokes their license (for not meeting regulations), these would then be offered for sale at a public auction. Only licenses are sold at a government public auction run by the government-remove and not radio equipment. Although it is not possible to predict when a public auction will come up, we are optimistic that one may come up in September. This could be the way the Lord is leading at this time. Please keep this project in your prayers. We want to thank so many of you for praying hard and giving sacrificially toward the radio ministry. We are getting closer to reaching our goal.
