Visiting Prisons in Zambia
Article submitted by Elizabeth Ratliff, Field Coordinator in Zambia In the past I have said what a privilege it is to serve the Lord here in Zambia and the incredible opportunities in the prisons but this mission to Northern Zambia far surpassed previous missions. It was our most distant mission, it was the hardest and [...]

Heat is a Luxury
Article submitted by Norb & Julie Kurrle, Field Coordinators in Paraguay It’s been cold here the last few days and today we woke up to about 0 degree celcius. We’re giving our new wood burning stove a work out; yesterday we kept it burning all day! While we are thankful for a cozy home, the [...]

Tell Me “My Story”
Article submitted by Julie Merrin, Field Coordinator in SE Asia Rachel was sitting next to me recently…chattering away, as usual. I’m not sure how, but somehow, the conversation turned to her asking something about “her story”. The story of how she came to be with me. She has heard this story many times before, but [...]

Busy Time in Puerto Maldonado
Article submitted by Jim & Sue Brannan, Field Coordinators in Peru Once again, it’s been a very busy time as always here in Puerto Maldonado, Peru—and a very hot and dry month. We have not had a good rain all month and the river is really going down. The last time Sue and I were [...]
Chile Earthquake
Article submitted by Paul and Cheryl Bendele, Field Coordinators in Argentina
We have had a number of emails and calls concerning the earthquake in Chile to see if it has affected us in any way. No, we have not been shaken here, but people close by in Villa Dolores (20km) did feel it that first morning. My pastor friend, Juan Carcamo, who is from Chile and lives here in Argentina is traveling there this weekend and will be informing me of a great need there so I will be asking Missionary Ventures to help send a team to help soon. I will tell you about it.
Chancani Update
Elisha and I traveled out to Chancani last weekend to minister to the new believers. Many of you prayed for our friends Alfonso and Susanna to come to the Lord. We are happy to tell you that they did come to a saving knowledge of Christ during our conference there and their daughter, Barbara, came to me last weekend and asked to talk. She said she wanted to repent and turn her life over to the Lord and to make a new start. How exciting! She prayed with me and later the same day made a public profession of her faith.
This coming Saturday I am returning with Martin and Sylvana (called to be missonaries to Chancani) to preach again.
Please pray that pastor Juan Carlos Diaz will be able to find a property to purchase soon. He is talking about putting up a tent while they plan to build. It would be so good for them to have their own property as some refuse to come to the present location as they do not like the owners of the property.
We are trying each week to visit homes of those who accepted the Lord. Please pray for open hearts and ability to reach many.
