Trip to Trujillo

We received an invitation to minister in early April at Victory Baptist Church in Trujillo. I preached on Friday and Saturday night and two times on Sunday.

Ruth ministered in music in one service.

Victory Baptist Church was started by a father-son team and their wives: David and Kandie Stilwell and Steve and Evelyn Stilwell. The church is growing both in number and maturity. It was great to see a church that is thriving.

While we were in Trujillo, I had a crown put on a molar that had broken off. My dentist is Edgar Alcalde, a man I led to Christ some years ago.

Edgar is one of the most evangelistic persons I know who continually presents Christ to others.  We had a great time together as he shared with me about the missions trips he makes into the mountains to start a new church.


We also had time to visit friends at the Seminary and in the city.  One was Pastor Justo Castañeda and his wife, Lili.

On our last day, we attended prayer meeting at Faith Baptist, the church the Lord started through our efforts.  The church is growing and the radio ministry is very effective.

We rejoiced in the faithful servant-leadership of pastors Rene Hurtado and Manuel Rojas with their wives.
