Faith Baptist Takes on First Missionary

Last month, the church we are starting in Lima (Faith Baptist Church) began supporting their first missionaries.  Javier Huaman and his wife, Rosa, are graduates from our Seminary in the city of Trujillo.  They have three children: Milca, Isaí and Keyla.  

The Huamán Family: Our First Missionaries

This is Milca and Isaí.

 Little Milca quoted John 3:16 word perfect.

Isaí gave his testimony on how he was saved.  It was so sweet.

We are excited to be a part of their ministry.  Although our church is only getting started, we want to learn from the beginning to have a missionary heart.

Pray for Javier and Rosa as they church plant in a very difficult area in Lima.  Pray for our new church plant to catch the missionary vision and be a great supporting church.

Our First Communion Service

Bob and Janet Johnson wrote and asked what they could do to serve us here in Peru, we shared with them the need for a communion set for the Lord's supper.  They shared the need with their home church and friends.  Thanks to Bob and Janet, Valley Forge Baptist Temple and many friends in Calvary Baptist in Lansdale, PA, our church has its own complete communion set.

When Bob and Janet came to Peru to visit, they brought part of the communion set with them.

Just a few days after they left Peru, we had our first Lord's supper.

The Cup - His Blood Was Shed for Us

Remembering Christ's Death 'till He comes again

Scripture Reading on Christ's Death

It was a milestone for us and so wonderful to remember the Lord's death and sacrifice for our sins as a church family in this special way.  

Preaching in an Anniversary Campaign

Last month, Ruth and I ministered in a church on the other side of Lima.  

This is what the surrounding area looks like from the top of the church.  

These are typical views of many Lima urban areas Lima.

I preached every night on Thursday through Saturday and on Sunday taught Sunday School and preached twice.

Pastor Látimer Rengifo is the pastor and he does a great job.  His wife's name is Eunice and she does an excellent job in her role as pastor's wife.  

God is blessing their ministry and the church is growing.  Pastor Látimer is also the voice that gives a lot of our announcements over the radio.  He gives his time free of charge to help our ministry. 

And guess who was right by my side during the week?  

My Sweetheart who is also my best listener.
