Pastor's Retreat in Southern Peru

In January, I spoke for a week at a pastor's retreat giving classes in the morning and preaching in the evening. There were approx-imately 80 pastors present along with their wives and children. Some came from great distances and made significant sacrifices to attend.
The preaching and teaching was in Spanish, but a lot of the people speak the Quechua language. So there were several specials in that language.
Here a group sings praise to the Lord in their typical clothing.
The ladies sang and the men played their musical instruments in the background.

It was a wonderful privilege and opportunity to give God's Word to the leaders of our churches in southern Peru. The pastor's drank in the teaching, which was a thrilling experience that I will never forget. It is exciting to a Bible teacher when there is an intense desire to learn and apply the Scriptures.
On the last day, the children sang as part of the program.
