During the last of January and the first part of February, we held our annual retreat for pastors in the central region of Peru. Forty pastors with their wives and children attended. Ruth and I were the coordinators for this retreat. Our role was to help the Peruvian director for the camp week (Pastor Fidel Gómez).
The total attendance counting camp workers and all helpers was 190. Pictured here are the pastors, their wives, single missionary ladies and just a few of the children.
Bro. Bruce Burkholder was the main speaker for the week. His wife, Lisa, also spoke to the ladies.

Bro. Bob Metze and his wife, Terri attended. Bob taught two classes at the retreat and spoke several times at three different churches in Lima during his time here. They stayed in our home and were a great blessing to us! Bob has a powerful testimony and message to give on abuse in the home. God used him to touch many hearts.

Bruce, Lisa and Bob did a terrific job expounding the Scriptures. Both couples are former missionaries to Mexico who had to leave for health reasons. They now work together with EBI (Editorial Bautista Independiente), a ministry that supplies literature for Spanish speaking Latin America. This is a much appreciated and needed ministry for us here in Peru.
